Memcache is another great example, even if it is not persistent it is still a data store. Have you ever heard of a company hiring a "Memcache Administrator"? I mean, other than Facebook? :-)
Looking around the others and feeling the same - CouchDB, hBase, MemcacheDB... These systems are expecting the bulk of computation to live in the application layer, and they are focused on storing data... Hence the low administration requirements. And please note that I'm a certified Oracle DBA - went through certification back in the 8i years. I've spent the last 15 years really getting good at this, and should be the last guy calling for change ;-) -- Mitch _______________________________________________ New York PHP Users Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/Show-Participation
