The database itself looks neat, but wasn’t at all what I expected from the name EdgeDB. At the moment, “edge” usually refers to edge computing, i.e. running code in many data centres around the world, near to their users.
I expected EdgeDB to be a database suitable for edge computing, namely able to run globally, near the edge compute nodes, and replicate data with eventual consistency.
- musingsole 8y agoMe too. If anyone has any pointers to such a database, I'd be interested. I have some devices that are looking like they'll need a custom filesystem based key store, but others running linux with a need to sync the two types of devices.
- jinjin2 8y agoRealm is probably one of the most well known.
- prepend 8y agoI don’t know, I first thought of graph databases and computing edges between nodes.
