gentoo-overlay VS foundationdb

clone my overlay, copy acct-user/foundationdb and acct-group/foundationdb and dev-db/foundationdb-bin and copy them into your own overlay (under the same named parent folders, acct-user, acct-group, dev-db) (creating your own overlay wiki page)

all right, to make it easy I commited and pushed them to my overlay. use eselect repo or layman or your favorite tool to add https://github.com/Phoenix591/gentoo-overlay

No that ought to work. if you want I have a couple profiles in my overlay made that way if you want to compare your repo configuration (metadata/layout) and profile related files

The five second timeout remains and trickles through to apply to Postgres transactions instead. This project would very much be for OLTP, so not really fit for using Postgres for OLAP or hybrid workloads.

The N+1 issue is a really interesting one which I have a plan for but haven't implemented yet. FoundationDB has what they call mapped ranges [0] to help with this, which works in some cases. More generally, one should make sure to issue read request as soon as possible and not on-demand, given that FoundationDB clients have a futures-based design. This is slightly tricky in Postgres because internally it has a pull-based model where one tuple is pulled from the execution plan at a time, so one needs to implement pre-fetching and not make a read against FDB each time a new tuple is pulled.

I'm honestly not at all familiar with browsers but I really do wonder if a custom language wouldn't be a reasonable tradeoff. It's not all that insane as that is a path that has been walked before. For instance FoundationDB has their own syntax to manage their actor system which just transpiles to C++: https://github.com/apple/foundationdb/blob/main/flow/README....

V8 also has torque which I think to some degree also fits into that type of mindset.

Actually, Apple does this for iCloud! They use FoundationDB[1] to store billions of databases, one for each user (plus shared or global databases).

Is this the language in question? https://github.com/apple/foundationdb/blob/main/flow/README....

Isn’t apple server on C/C++?

They have their own db in that

> Any meaningful technology is open source.

Clearly untrue, however FoundationDB is open source, with a permissive license.

So is much of the operational tooling for it:

I don't recall any of those details but the test involved injecting a bogus block device that always returns garbage, and noting that this results in garbage records returned from client queries. And I don't think those kinds of issues have been eradicated, browsing through their github issues there are people trying to recover corrupted clusters. https://github.com/apple/foundationdb/issues/2480
