Hi Matthew, It's not explicitly a cloud computing database, but it is optimized for lots of scale-out (as opposed to scale-up), so it is certainly appropriate to think of it as such:
>From http://drizzle.org/wiki/Main_Page ------------------------------------------------------- Drizzle: A High-Performance Microkernel DBMS for Scale-Out Applications Drizzle is a community-driven project based on the popular MySQL DBMS that is focused on MySQL's original goals of ease-of-use, reliability and performance. Drizzle is currently in alpha, with no stable release or binary and with major new changes being introduced daily. ---------------------------------------------------- -Sheeri On 12/22/08, Matthew Sacks <[email protected]> wrote: > > is it safe to say drizzle is a cloud computing database? > i can't find a "mission" statement for the project online other than > saying it is built for "massive concurrency" > > [M) > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > -- - Sheeri K. Cabral Note: Currently I work for The Pythian Group (http://www.pythian.com/ ), a remote DBA firm, and consulting would constitute a conflict of interest. However, I do recommend our work, and if you're looking for DBA work (I do MySQL work, but they have great Oracle and SQL Server DBAs too) right now, whether you need a few hours a week, or someone fulltime while you continue a job search. I have a webpage with tips on how to find a DBA: http://sheeri.net/how-to-find-a-dba/ I can recommend http://www.toomanyconnections.com as a good site to find MySQL (and Oracle) DBAs. If you're looking for web design, I recommend the small business my husband works for, http://www.digital-loom.com I regret that I have no other information for any other type of position, including developer, programmer and systems administrator.
