I'm supposed to use the perl api for user and schema management? Perl holds a special place in my heart, but I'm not too excited about managing my database with it. How about an interactive console? I'm currently using MySQL, how similar is the SQL syntax?

On backlog to fix. But InfiniSQL is for hackers and early adopters at this stage. The SQL support is documented (http://www.infinisql.org/docs/index/ http://www.infinisql.org/docs/index/)

  Awesome project and a killer concept. No one has been able to really solve relational database scalability yet. I'll have to study the implementation. I was just talking with some friends a few weeks ago about this problem and we concluded that if someone came up with a distributed relational database with decent scalable performance they would be very successful indeed. Will try it out and follow the progress. Hope it takes off.

    Have you tried Vertica? One of the big data project my team did used more than 200 servers in a single Vertica cluster. At the enterprise OEM level, the pricing is actually really affordable. You should try out Vertica Community Edition, the free 3 node version.

      Vertica's a data warehouse. InfiniSQL is geared for OLTP. --------- Thanks, jacob019. Please fork/follow on github, twitter if you're into that, etc.

  Hackers and early adopters are using Perl in 2013? Sure you aren't off by 12-15 years?

    This you? http://favstar.fm/users/hipsterhacker http://favstar.fm/users/hipsterhacker Also, the main application is in C++. A python script launches the C++ daemons. Perl scripts are quick and dirty tests and deployment scripts. The main hacking I'm looking for is with C++, and I don't care so much if the other stuff gets re-implemented in some other language.

      Nope, just a guy that fucks with databases. No API, got it.
