[okfn-labs] [fyi-relevant-tech] HyperDex - NoSQL with transactions and ACID ...

[Daniel Lombraña González]

Hi Rufus,

Thanks for sharing HyperDex :-) I've already read a lot about this DB and
apparently excels in its payed version (you only get the ACID support if
you pay for it) and the failure system. There are several open questions in
stackoverflow about it, so it is very interesting to read about it.

I discover this NoSQL solution some time ago, one another colleague
recommend me to read this blog post about how MongoDB is broken by design
http://hackingdistributed.com/2013/01/29/mongo-ft/ which is a blog post
that has obtained a lot of attention due to it criticism about MongoDB and
because the author of the DB is  one of the creators of HyperDex :-)
Personal points of view aside (just read the comments, hehe) I found the
blog post really useful and interesting.

Thanks to that blog post I read a lot more about Riak, Redis, Cassandra,
etc. :-) so be careful if you have too many things to do this week as the
blog post is really interesting :-D

Ciao,

Daniel

PS: By the way the link of bit.ly is broken. This is the correct one:
