Afternoon, Evening, Morning to all - Here is a great recap to lead you into the weekend: some great information from #riak, a pointer to a new Riak preso, Riak across the Pond, and a few other worthwhile tidbits.
Enjoy - Mark Community Manager Basho Technologies wiki.basho.com twitter.com/pharkmillups ----- Riak Recap for 5/26 - 5/27 1) One of the best conversations we've had a in while in #riak went down on Wednesday. If you are interested in hinted handoff, partition tolerance, and large clusters, grab yourself an ale (or a cupcake, if that's your thing) and cozy up to this Gist ---> http://gist.github.com/417326 2) Q --- Is it possible to limit Riak's memory footprint? Just trying to understand what drives Riak's memory usage. (from wolfelwlu via #riak) A --- You can use Erlang's os_mon to trigger warnings but not hard limits. Also, when using the Innostore backend, you can limit the buffer pool size which effectively limits memory consumption. 3 ) Jon Meredith presented on Riak a few days back at Gluecon. It's a great basic overview of Riak and his slides are pretty nifty, so if you have a few minutes, check it out.
