A comment on Membase: A distributed key-value database for modern web applications.

The front page says, "A distributed key-value database for modern web applications".

The heading of this HN submission is "Yet Another Distributed Scalable Key/Value? (answer: no way!)"

The schizophrenia continues on the home page. "Does the world really need another NoSQL database?"

This deliberate confusion is beyond idiotic.

It's not deliberate confusion. There was a lot of work to just getting the code out there, and we're now working on more and more docs.

Have a look at http://blog.northscale.com/northscale-blog/2010/07/what-exac... and http://dustin.github.com/2010/06/29/memcached-vbuckets.html for good technical content.
