SimpleDB is BerkeleyDB

  That's a totally speculative inference. Amazon is a big company, and just because someone in Amazon wrote a BDB interface for erlang doesn't mean SimpleDB is erlang + BDB.

    I don't believe any of this hogwash . . . SimpleDB is clearly just a big memory-resident hash table.

  Here-say and speculation, although not that far fetched.

  Hmm... if it's BDB, why is SDB lacking so many functionality of BDB then?! After a cursory look, SDB has more in common with Mnesia than with BDB. http://erlang.mirror.libertine.org/doc/apps/mnesia/Mnesia_chap2.html#2 http://erlang.mirror.libertine.org/doc/apps/mnesia/Mnesia_ch...
