Reported for not assuming the best - or even reasonable - interpretation of the parent comment. Don’t be so insufferable.

There is no reasonable interpretation that makes a comment suggesting an alternative which is nothing like CockroachDB, the entire point of the OP’s post, sound reasonable.

Especially when it’s so conspiratorial in nature and spreading information that is completely unverifiable.

> I don't really see how this competes with cockroach.

I never said it did.

> Is that why you commented under a different username, because you are affectively spreading misinformation?

No, asshole. Because it's a small world, and it's not exactly the smartest thing to do to.... never mind. Obviously you're gonna assume ill intent regardless of what I say.

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about, and have never used it. If you had, you wouldn't think of it as "nosql".

It's... more like a real time data processing platform, I honestly don't know of an existing category or comparable software.

At first glance it looks like a kvs database with a lot of bells and whistles. After you learn more, though, you realize it's not "just" a database -- you write your application with the Aerospike client library, using expressions, data modeling, CDTs, &c. Not using it as a black box for storing data.

Aerospike describes itself as a NoSql platform in the first sentence of it's front page.
