Just want to say this is super cool. I'm excited to see what people build on top of it.. seems like it could enable a new category of hosted data platforms-as-a-service (platform-as-a-services?).

This is more or less exactly what I'm hoping for. I think that people are excited to build stateless applications, but often that requires really specialized application and storage knowledge to pull off. My hope is that people can use this generic storage layer to build the next generation of stateless applications (including things like databases) without having to become storage experts themselves. I'm also excited to see what they build.
