[AccessD] Fun and games in web design

MySQL...they are mad. (They are actually using HiveDB in combination with
MySQL or they would never be able to keep the thing together otherwise.)

I assumed because Facebook had donated so much time and money into the
ongoing development of Hadoop, they would be associated with it. Apparently,
they are not looking at how to improve their system but looking for a
life-boat.

It will be interesting to see which way Facebook finally migrates as we know
they must.

The author sighted NewSQL as the next logical step but all are in their
infancy...many are cloud based and the products he quoted were not OSS,
which means no Start-up company, the next big thing, will ever be able to
afford to use them. In the OSS world VoltDB, H-Store, HyperSQL, Drizzle
(refactored MySQL) and of course the new version one Postgres-XC.

Hi Jim --

Have a look:

"Facebook trapped in MySQL 'fate worse than death'"
http://gigaom.com/cloud/facebook-trapped-in-mysql-fate-worse-than-death/

"What database does Facebook
use?"http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3479720/what-database-does-facebook-
use


Just facts, no criticism - anyway - Facebook is a great social web site, and
as Arthur I do envy the engineers who are keeping such an immense set of SQL
and NoSQL databases and media files up & running so smoothly...

Thank you.

Facebook and Google use NoSQL or RM

Both Oracle and MS are heavily into supporting various NoSQL development
projects. Most big systems are not just MS SQL or Oracle but hybrids.

AFAIK, both Amazon and EBay use Oracle.
