It would be interesting to see a "new and noteworthy" section in these types of news recaps. There's always a lot of hype around new databases, and it'd be nice to see an unbiased perspective from someone with such deep knowledge of database systems, similar to Aphyr's deep dives into consistency and durability.
This seems focused on only SQL systems, and only the largest ones, which is okay, but I think there's a lot more to the story than that :)
- jchanimal 8y agoIf you are into global consistency but also want NoSQL flexibility, my employer FaunaDB has ACID transactions, joins, indexes, and object level access control.
- atombender 8y agoI'm sure you guys are doing good business, but the only way we'd use FaunaDB is if it's open-sourced. I suspect you'll have a hard time competing against Google Spanner (or even Google Cloud Datastore).
