The Current Pros and Cons List for SimpleDB
▁ dec 18 2007
Ha humchi fo hum. Get it? sigh
The article’s pretty dumb, too. Funny title.
Mwah, I can’t help myself but to comment on some of the cons they list:
- “No referential integrity, stored procedures, joins, this is not a professional product” - Duh, you’re missing the point. If you want all that, stick to SQL. That’s what it’s made for. If you want to jump the wagon on the next wave of storing data on the web, this is for you. So is CouchDB, by the way.
- “No API support for X, Y & Z” - Again, duh. This is SOAP/REST, ever heard of HTTP?
They’re also commenting on the rumor that it’s built in Erlang. This flourished from Damien Katz, who said that someone at Amazon wrote a BDB layer in Erlang. It’s naturally distributed, which is nice, so if it is true, you know, great. Guess what else is written in Erlang? CouchDB.
