A transactional Key-Value store is exactly what you want for this kind of use case.

- ddorian43 6y agoYes now you are maintaining 5+ types of services for foundationdb. While you can vertically-scale a single PostgreSQL (with failover/ha) server to 50+TB of NVME and grow until you can throw other engineers at the problem. Example: wasabi.com uses mysql for metadata.
