The State of NoSQL in 2012

I looked at neo4j briefly the other day, and quite predictably thought ‘wow, this looks like a serious tinkertoy: it‘s basically a bunch of nodes where you just blob your attributes.‘ Worse than that, to wrap objects around it, you have to have them explicitly incorporate their node class, which is ugly, smelly, violates every law of separation of concerns and logical vs. physical models. On the plus side, as I started to look at it more, I realized that it was the perfect way to implement a backend for a bayesian inference engine (more on that later). Why?

July 1, 2011 For most Riak users, Bitcask is the obvious right storage engine to use. It provides low latency, solid predictability, is robust in the face of crashes, and is friendly from a filesystem backup point of view. However, it has one notable limitation: total RAM use depends linearly (though via a small constant) on the total number of objects stored.
