Hi Jim,
How is the data in Nimbus partitioned?
Share nothing/all, horizontal/vertical, ...?

Hi Jim,
Sounds to me as if your design could use Drizzle as a component of
the Nimbus node.
Have you considered this?
Gross architectural mismatch. Nimbus is a database system that runs
on an elastic set of computers. Drizzle runs on a single computer.
Nimbus does replication below the SQL layer. Replication for
Drizzle is either layered on top of the SQL layer (statement based
replication) or in the middle (row based replication). Drizzle is
also based on the idea that disks are suitable primary storage for
database systems. I believe that disks represent everything that is
bad about computing, and are best thought of as neo-tape drives --
OK for archival storage, wretched for anything else.
