Unless you develop some holy grail solution I don’t think anyone will use an unproven DB for OLTP. At least not without HuMongos marketing spend

- guenthert 2y agoTo expand on this, DB administrators tend to be a conservative bunch. To some extend you can make a slow DB fast by spending big on hardware. No amount of money however will make an unsound DB reliable.
- didgetmaster 2y agoI think it is obvious that no one will want to put their valuable data in an 'unsound' DB. To restate my original question: If you had two database systems that were equally reliable, but of course had different strengths and weaknesses, would the ability to update large tables without significantly impacting general query speeds, be a major factor in deciding between the two?
- didgetmaster 2y agoIs that how PostgeSQL got so popular? After all, at one point it was unproven and I am not aware of a 'HuMongos marketing spend' changing that.
