If I didn't need the log, would I need to use Prevayler at all? It sounds to me like a plain old "keep objects in RAM", which is what most programming languages

If I didn't need the log, would I need to use Prevayler at all? It sounds to me like a plain old "keep objects in RAM", which is what most programming languages already natively do.
- wpietri 7y agoWhat Prevayler got you was the ACID guarantees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACID https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACID So if you didn't need persistence, you certainly didn't need it. Ditto if data integrity wasn't important. It would also have made distribution much easier. Since each mutation was already serialized to disk before execution, you could also send it over the wire to read-only replicas and hot spares for the master.
