Tim.
Do you have driver prefix for it yet ? Maybe simpdb_ ?
After a bit of investigation, it appears the preferred acronym
is 'sdb', so perhaps 'amznsdb_' is a better prefix ?
FWIW: it appears the Amazon announcement is a bit premature;
while the docs/website are available, the sample files
and actual access appears to be limited to invited guests
at this point.
Also, the key piece of the name is "Simple". Its really more
like a version of memcached with some simple predicate
and set operators. However, DBD::Amazon's infrastructure
looks to be a good fit to sortof turn it into a semi-RDBMS.
(Esp. the DNF engine to separate out predicates that can be executed
on the server from those that can be executed in the client)
