I'm building a node.js project that will grow to a large authentication data group (hopefully), and I'd like to make the right decision now.
My options are: -- PostgreSQL sharding, like Instagram does -- MongoDB -- Something more creative I'll likely use some kind of VM solution like Amazon's EC2 or Rackspace instances for app servers, some kind of scaling mechanism that behaves similarly to HA Proxy (if not just HA Proxy), and I'd like to use some method of scaling dB servers to more easily grow to meet capacity needs. To add some context, we'll also need to store data like user generated content. I'm just looking for experience based opinions on which route makes the most sense. Basically, imagine you're building Instagram today from scratch. What tech would you use to handle storage? -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
