Another (non-technical) founder here - and I echo everything voidmain just said. We built a product that is unmatched in so many important ways, and it's fantastic that it's available to the world again. Will be exciting to watch a community grow around it - this is a product that can benefit hugely from OS contributions as layers that sit on top of the core KV store.
I wrote a java port of the python counter many moons ago [1]. Will have to resurrect it!
It should probably be pointed out that atomic increment is in most situations a more efficient solution for high contention counters in modern FDB.
Ah I don’t believe that was available last time I used it - I’ll check it out thanks!
Ditto. So glad to see FoundationDB available again! Both the tech and the company have been missed. (Former FoundationDB Solutions Engineer :) )
(I was one of the co-founders of FoundationDB-the-company and was the architect of the product for a long time. Now that it's open source, I can rejoin the community!)
