There are some issues discussed over user group about running with mySQL and Cassandra as backend. Hbase seems to perform well for far. > Also what is the difference between 2.1 and 2.x > branches? I had the impression that 2.x behaves like Version 2's trunk and > 2.1 is the stable version. is that correct? > Yes. 2.x branch [1] is the trunk for 2.x releases. 2.1 is a stable release. After 2.1 release, there have been some changes (mostly jira fixes) and those are present in 2.x branch. Its yet to be released. So, 2.x branch is kinda a "work in progress" thing. > > Thanks > Ahmet > [0] : http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/nutch/trunk/ [1] : http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/nutch/branches/2.x/
