Did you consider Gizzard for sharding writes? Can you share why not?

  Well while this question doesn't really apply to me.. I can at least say one reason not to use Gizzard is that it's deprecated now.

    Didn't know it had been deprecated, it seemed like a great tool for scaling databases. Anyone know why?

  We've used master/master shards in the past and they've been very difficult to manage. I'm not fully aware of Gizzard's capabilities so I guess the answer is no, because we weren't aware of it. We also needed something that would speed up writes much more than just 2x (and the way ndbcluster does writes was the key).
