This may have to wait till Chirp, but as long as we're on the subject of "filtering at the consumer end", how good is *Cassandra* at that sort of filtering, relative to all the other databases, NoSQL and "traditional" ACID-compliant RDBMS? And how good is Cassandra relative to Hadoop? I've been thinking PostgreSQL in my designs, mostly because it's the one I know best, it's solid as a rock and I have friends who will disown me if I use MySQL. ;-) But using the same DB as Twitter has an appeal to it just because you *do* use it. And, of course, because NoSQL databases are cool and geeky. ;-) To unsubscribe from this group, send email to twitter-development-talk+unsubscribegooglegroups.com or reply to this email with the words "REMOVE ME" as the subject.
