In some big corps, in order to be a maker you have to know people in different departments to speed up things and take some shortcuts. You can also slowly have your technical solutions adopted. It takes coffee breaks and some jokes to reach

Well technically wiredtiger is not in charge of the replication.

Mongodb's new storage engine was written by Keith Bostic and Dr Michael Cahill. They are database veterans. Wiredtiger is really nicely written.

After all they are responsible for thousands of deaths. And they knew it. I don't know why they aren't in jail already.

Playing games with the commonly accepted meaning of words is a known sophism. The Linux kernel is 0.2% of shell scripts, yet no one would say it's written in shell. Same for windows or sql server. .Net is marginal there. Btw I do code

Exact. It's marginal. Saying "written in .net" about sql server made the Microsoft PFEs laugh during our coffee break though.

Right now I'm using prometheus and grafana to monitor around 8k database servers (sql server too BTW). We have pricing applications using influxdb. Docker. Openstack. Minio. We also have mattermost. All of this in a conservative big b

Sql server written in C#? Please. None of it.

by grumpydba 7y ago
Yet in the infrastructure side, it's much more used than c#. Go figure.

Yeah go ahead and try using such a byzantine license in big corps. I know my legal department wouldn't even dare taking the risk.

It's all about the density of this state/city which makes individual car ownership pretty impractical. I don't think teslas are needed in Singapore, but it doesn't mean they are not needed elsewhere. I think SGP's P
