I think they're making it much easier for every other database start up: just pick up on the technical grounds left by FoundationDB (see their Architecture PDF) and knock yourself out. You have no competitors right now.

- sjwright 12y agoIf you need evidence of Apple's ability to acquire and senselessly destroy viable products, look no further than Shake. If you need evidence of Apple's ability to acquire companies while keeping product lines independent, look no further than Beats. If you need evidence of Apple's ability to acquire industry leading technology to ensure exclusive advantage, look no further than AuthenTec (Touch ID). If you need evidence of Apple's ability to sincerely invest in open source for the benefit of all, look no further than CUPS. Or LLVM. Or WebKit. Apple has no pattern.
