Good point, oh boy - caught me red handed. shameshame.
What I'm trying to get across is that it is the easiest database because it is not your traditional master-slave database, and it doesn't require maintaining any database process. It is indeed just a cache, but it has all the benefits of a database.
- lberger 12y agoI'm lost. How does it have all the benefits of a database, without any persistence? That doesn't sound like a database at all.
- marknadal 12y agoPersistence is just a plugin/module/hook. Currently it plugs into a very never-should-ever-be-deployed file on disk (for easy local testing only) and S3. We're going to be adding more storage engines though! Hopefully building an open source S3 that uses fancy algorithms to store on disk and on peers. However I don't know that stuff, somebody else is doing it (or I'm hiring - we're funded!).
