It’s not technically interesting since a lot of big data solutions already solve this problem so I guess only the geopolitics are left.

- xpl 4y agoI doubt about "a lot". Also, "already solve" does not mean "solve better" or even "good enough". It would be very interesting to see some in-depth comparisons with already-existing open source technology (like Hadoop, Hive, Iceberg, ZooKeeper) to get a sense of when and where YT could be more effective.
- hamilyon2 4y agoI am obviously biased, but, yes, technically it is very, very interesting. Distributed transactions, kiparis, YQL are interesting. Another aspect, the only other open alternative is Hadoop, hbase and hive. They don't compete with yt on usability and developer experience aspects. Yt is much more polished, despite historical quirks.
