iirc they are both powered by the same engine to stream and replicate the WAL. I believe R2 is now implemented as a Durable Object backed by SQLite now.

Does this mean that R2 is not "eventually consistent" anymore?

I wonder what are the use cases (and when it's safe) to use "eventually consistent".

I'm guessing that maybe things like social media posts could be fine with "eventually consistent". It's not really critical to have the latest data.

I'm guessing that things like a shopping cart, a user account, a session shouldn't use a "eventually consistent" database.
