Re: [ZODB-Dev] [OT] NoSQL

[Adam GROSZER]

Hello,

I think we can look at this at 2 levels.

1.: As your app uses ZODB. Then this is your app's
    problem/reponsibility. You use a nosql contender directly from
    your app and it's your responsibility to deal with it.

2.: On the ZODB Storage level. So far I can see that level needs
    consistency, transactions and locking support. Those are usually
    missing from nosql implementations (unless I miss some).
    OTOH a key-value store would fit the ZODB storage.
    If someone finds/writes a key-value storage that has the above
    properties we could give it a try.
