Re: [fossil-users] DRH's PGCon 2014 Keynote (with Fossil sighting!)
Thus said B Harder on Sun, 01 Jun 2014 22:42:39 -0700: I think drh unnecessarily missed an opportunity there. He seemed to work harder to obfuscate what fossil actually was than giving a single passing description and moving on with his talk about SQL and using fossil by name where it's used as an example. He highlighted all the benefits that a SQLite backed Git might have and then refered them to a live demo: http://www.sqlite.org/postgresql Without knowing the audience I would think this should be sufficient advertising.

At 28:18 drh suggests that key/value pair engines will not stand the test of time. Isn't sqlite4 going to be a key/value engine?

FWIW, the IT people at my office call MS SQL Server sequel sever and the Oracle server Oracle SQL (or just Oracle). (As I understand it, sequel server is the backend for the Sharepoint server and Oracle SQL is the backend for the SAP Enterprise Document Management System.) ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
[fossil-users] DRH's PGCon 2014 Keynote (with Fossil sighting!)
I just wanted to share Richard's PGCon 2014 keynote for anyone here that wasn't aware of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvmMzI0X7fE It's a great talk about the historical relationship between SQLite and PostgreSQL as well as a celebration of the usefulness of SQL. Richard goes through several specific examples of how SQLite is currently or could potentially be used as a superior application file format to a pile of files. He also throws in a dig at NoSQL databases that anyone who appreciates both SQL and the general concept of truth will find highly amusing. Near the end of the speech (around the 32:30 mark), a certain unnamed SQL-based SCM makes a special appearance (spoiler alert: it's Fossil). Thanks, Richard, and everyone else, enjoy! ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
