Looks good :)
Only downside (ok more philosophy choice ?) is that it seems quite strict on schema ?
Ive been exploring none-strict schema dbs xtdb or solr. And for unexplored problems (are they not all like that ?) schemaless has been an interesting tool in my toolbox (ymmv)
Scemaless does sound like an 'absolute' and the opposite is probably 'struct-to-table-mapping' which is okish in a dynamic language and downright horrible in my second favourite language Go
I like the query 'language' of EdgeDB but then if you looking for sql alternative (language + methodology wise) look into datalog-like dbs and their query language. Datahike, datalevine, xtdb and of course datatomic. Datalogic-query-lang really offers a nice alternative in my view.
All of the above is not a silver bullet but a worthwhile alternative to at least investigate for your needs :)
Once again Well.done to EdgeDB as a solo or just a dev in general i know how hard it is to release or just get something out there, nevermind opensource
- 1st1 4y agoThanks! > is that it seems quite strict on schema ? Yes, it is. But you can use JSON in your schema, we have amazing support for it on all levels (the query language, std library, schema integration, client APIs, etc).
