Congratulations on the funding. But the "the 2nd-most deployed database in the world in less than a year" is a little... I don't know. If a popular app decides to use your database, shouldn't you count that as 1 installation instead of taking the number of people that will download the popular app? The comparison doesn't seem fair for non-mobile databases. I would rewrite it as "the 2nd-most deployed mobile database in the world in less than a year".
- astigsen 12y agoAlexander from Realm here. I agree that deployments are not the only (or even nessesarily most interesting) metric of usage. But it is a good example of how remarkable mobile growth is. At this point there are just crazily many more mobile devices out there than there ever was on the backend and server side. It is an interesting metric for us, given that sqlite has for a long time (rightfully) claimed to be the most widely deployed datebase in world, which is also primarily based on their usage on mobile devices.
