If I'm reading the high-level description correctly, the plan here is for this thing to be one giant centralized instance. Can anyone verify that I'm reading that right? Not that I have any pro or con feelings towards this architecture, just not sure if I'm fully grokking it.
- terrycojones 17y agoYes, that's right. The control is centralized, but the storage and the computation are fully distributed. We spent a long time working on what we think will be a scalable architecture. The query language is deliberately simple to make everything fast (there's only B-tree lookups and set ops on object IDs) and easily parallelizable. And this is the 3rd implementation :-)
