I'm thinking of using Riak to replace a large Oracle system, and I'm trying to understand its guarantees. I have a few introductory questions; this is the second of three. Imagine I do a write, and the write fails because it could not contact enough hosts. Am I right to imagine that the write may actually have persisted, and that the data might later be available for reading? Am I also right to imagine that the data, once read, might later vanish due to host failure, because it was persisted to fewer hosts than expected?
