Rethink is a VC funded company. Our goal is to be a defacto database choice for every new web app. This is tongue in cheek -- https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/1000 https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/1000 -- but should give you a sense of the direction for the project.
RethinkDB already has paying customers, and we'll soon be offering publicly available commercial support (not unlike JBoss, MySQL, 10Gen, etc.) There are also other revenue streams I can't talk about yet.
For anyone who's interested in the pilot program before commercial support becomes publicly available, shoot me an email -- slava@rethinkdb.com.
- eaurouge 13y agoI think you should work with the Meteor folks to bring RethinkDB support to Meteor. There's a huge opportunity there.
- coffeemug 13y agoWe've been looking into it. I'd really like to get that done, but it's a non-trivial undertaking, and Meteor's DB APIs are still in flux. I'll see what we can do to accelerate this -- possibly by enticing the community to pick this up.
- JulianMorrison 13y agoPlease consider this encouragement to do so, because MongoDB is an instant interest killer for Meteor right now. I just don't trust MongoDB at all. If you post what needs done in detail, someone will surely pick it up. I'd certainly take a look and see if it was within my capabilities.
