----------------------------------------
Do you have a reference for Gora that actually says anything? I go here:
http://gora.apache.org/ , but most of the links off this page are dead, and
there is very little actual information available.
> Get ManifoldCF to run on top of a key/value store like Voldemort, for
> potential massive scalability improvements and speed gains

> Key: CONNECTORS-286
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-286
> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Framework core
> Reporter: Karl Wright
> Assignee: Karl Wright
> Fix For: ManifoldCF next
>
>
> ManifoldCF's reliance on a relational database limits its throughput and
> scalability. I am now convinced it is possible to build all the structures
> we need within a distributed key-value store like Voldemort, which has the
> nice side effect of permitting massive scaling. I envision there will be
> several layers to this project, some of which may have broader utility in the
> open-source community at large:
> (1) An atomic serialization layer, which adds serialization capabilities to
> an non-transactional substrate;
> (2) A transaction layer, which uses atomic serialization to build a notion of
> light transactions;
> (3) A table and index layer, which defines SQL-like concepts of tables and
> btree indexes on top of the transaction layer, via a Java API;
> (4) A generic "database abstraction" layer, which is capable of representing
> both standard SQL databases as well as this NoSQL variant, so that ManifoldCF
> can support both models.
> This is obviously a major development task, and as such is not envisioned to
> be completed by the next standard release. Work will indeed need to be done
> in a branch.
