On Mongo:
"we were not big fans of the master/slave architecture"
I don't quite understand this, that architecture was basically deprecated a while back, can you elaborate?
- cnagele 14y agoSorry, I need to correct that. I meant that shards are basically still primary / secondary with an arbiter for failover. We prefer horizontal nodes instead, like Cloudant, Elastic Search or Cassandra offers.
- pbbakkum 14y agoAhh, I see. Why do you guys prefer that configuration? Space/resources, reliability?
- kapilvt 14y agoprobably large amounts of writes.
- mlmilleratmit 14y agoSpace/resources was certainly a concern in this case. A disk-based solution with predictable latencies enables storage of far more data than something that requires holding the working set in RAM.
- philfreo 14y agoCan you elaborate on what you mean by it was deprecated a while back?
