It's a bit off topic for this list and should be discussed further over there, but to avoid the kinds of consistency challenges and topology change problems associated with repcached/libmemcached replication, Membase took a very different approach with vbuckets and vbucket hashing. Your browser will find you more. :) Clients don't have to be aware of this, as moxi can abstract away the details if the client doesn't know vbucket hashing. FWIW, Trond Norbye who I think did the libmemcached replication work is also a Membase guy. Regards, Matt
