I didn't build Flow, nor use it on GemStone. But to clarify concepts
Flow is a full web stack which *uses* Mapless for its persistence.

Mapless is a NoSQL framework using MongoDB by default, but AFAIK there
is a Mapless implementation using GemStone/S, which is no surprise
given the fact that most NoSQL are key-value storage, way less than
what a persistent Dictionary can provide. :)

I'm looking forward to bring Mapless to PostgreSQL, considering PG 9.4
have native JSONB storage.

Regards!
