In my experience, multi-region databases are used for HA/DR more so than for "writing locally from multiple places". What this means is that the multi-region "consensus cost" is a far easier problem. It looks like D

I'd ask the opposite: why would you use a vector index without the related metadata for filtering and hybrid querying. People don't use B-Tree indexes as a standalone separate database off to the side of their database. So why sho

MySQL powers much larger workloads than Postgres as a number of marquee silicon valley companies. Though it's generally used as a sharded key value store in those scenarios

I'm curious what the use case/customer demand for something like vectors to be transactional is? It strikes me as something fundamentally less about strong consistency than most use cases in a database. Don't get me wrong, if

There's an alternative take--namely that the silk road has dominated recent imagination but was never very dominant compared with sea routes. At least during the era of Roman-Indian shipping lanes: https://youtu.be/xw4W

Depends on who sits in the antitrust seat. It's pretty incredible to realize the one who does today wrote this a few years ago: https://www.yalelawjournal.org/pdf/e.710.Khan.805_zuvfyyeh.p...

Totally and that goes back to their lack of execution as a managed service/SaaS offering because the GTM for those is different, more self-service. If you can't unwind yourself from selling a heavy weight legacy style enterprise s

My point is to conflate the entire non-relational category into this bucket when one of the two items referenced peaked >10 years ago and the other isn't generally strongly consistent at write time, transactional, or with strongly c

That makes sense it's more that from first principles when exploring the options it looked like and I see below based on the public page, it wasn't even contemplated.. instead various key value stores without transactionality, and
