  1. foundationdb

    FoundationDB - the open source, distributed, transactional key-value store

    That was an experiment the team didn’t end up committing to - it’s been backed out. That said it was a fascinating dive into the flexibility of Swift, and the Konrad’s talk is excellent and worth watching.

  6. pgfdb

    Postgres made distributed using FoundationDB

    I'm excited by the idea of pgfdb*. I think it could be a great. postgres, with foundation replacing the transaction system to provide all the benefits that brings, horizontal scalability, automatic sharding, replication, and fault tolerance, and performance. foundationdb is 20+ years ahead of postgres in terms of distributed transaction theory.
