I've been researching these recently. Some things I've found: - Macrometa is a new startup and stateful edge (distributed database) service. I just tried them this morning. User experience is very raw but it works great. You can shim it in front of existing DBs (Dynamo, Firebase, etc) for better performance. - Gun: where macrometa runs on edge servers, Gun runs on the client. Mark is a fantastic community and they are doing interesting things. I had trouble implementing it but that's because I'm lousy at javascript. - Redis uses CRDTs or something similar: https://redislabs.com/redis-enterprise/technology/active-act... - This presentation is fantastic: https://www.infoq.com/presentations/crdt-distributed-consist...
