Is anyone aware of any projects to integrate the development app server with any BigTable-like persistence solutions?
I've seen people throwing the idea around in various threads, but I haven't seen anything concrete yet. The main advantage to users of such an integration is obviously the ability to scalably run their app anywhere (that is, assuming that the datastore is the main bottleneck of the development app server). One of the advantages for Google would be that dev_appserver would be a closer approximation to production than what it currently is with flat files - an issue that has raised its head a few times on this list when it comes to testing volumes of data locally. So how big a project would it be to replace the flat-file approach with an interface to HBase or Hypertable? What are the major stumbling blocks? It's something that I'd be interested in looking into - but I'd like to gauge how big a task it is first, and where the nasty bits are likely to be.
