Hey there, I just wanted to quickly highlight a piece that FirstRound just wrote up about our Bedrock distributed database technology, and how something as seemingly remote as your database choice can constrain your business model flexibility over time:
http://firstround.com/review/your-database-is-your-prison-heres-how-expensify-broke-free/ But additionally, I'm happy to say that the promised open-sourcing of the technology itself has just occurred! http://bedrockdb.com If you're at FinDEVr today in Santa Clara, please drop by my session at 3pm to see it demo'd live. (It's unclear how you demo a database on stage, but luckily I have 2 hours to figure it out...) Either way, I hope you'll take a look and give it a shot. Together let's make partitioned, single-datacenter deployments a thing of the past! -david Founder and CEO of Expensify
