I think some folks are missing the point of being able to scale up when needed by just changing the connection string. If you are trying to prove a big data concept with small data, this might be a cheaper path. Now, if there were just standards for NoSQL query interfaces, this might be 100% true...
- kbenson 13y agoThat's just it. Since it uses a specific scripting language, if you use it for anything more than direct CRUD operations, you very well may need to do quite a bit more than change the connection string. SQLite has less of a problem with this because SQL is standardized (but of course all the RDBMS have their variants). It's unfortunate that it's called UnQLite. Richard Hipp, the creator of SQLite is now involved with the UnQL specification[1], which looks unrelated to this. In fact, there's an interview where Hipp states his plans to make an UnQlite[2], which makes this, intentional or not, a namespace grab.
