But all other things aren't equal- this is HN, not the rest of the internet. I think one of the draws of the HN community is that interactions often carry more weight than your typical comment section on a blog.

What's interesting about key-value databases? Storing keys and values in an RDBMS is trivial... Graph databases are great for datasets where structure matters more than in a relational database and (way) more than in a K/V-store. When you'r

Doesn't Riak have a memory-based backend? So wouldn't it make more sense to say "here's why you don't also need Redis"? Ref - http://wiki.basho.com/Memory.html , http://wiki.basho.com/Multi.html Edit - added another ref link
