I'd suggest: - some knowledge on column based stores (so you have some idea about what they're good at and what they aren't) - getting a patch into drizzle. Get the source tree, look through low-hanging-fruit or ask us for something easy to get started on. - have a look some of the storage engine code in Drizzle... at this point I'd possibly even recommend looking at my lp:~stewart-flamingspork/drizzle/embedded-innodb branch as the most "complete" and easy to understand storage engine (with some familiarity with the embedded InnoDB API... a simple read through of parts of the documentation for it should suffice). -- Stewart Smith _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
