Wow, that product page is completely lacking any meaningful technical information about your product. :-D

How do you stack up against the most common open source NoSQL systems? Redis, Cassandra, Mongo, Couchbase? Is your db eventually consistent, or partitioned, or replicated, or what?

Thanks for the feedback, this is currently a landing page we give to our customers we meet face to face. We're working on something more consistent to answer questions like yours.

quasardb is a key/value store.

It is (a lot) faster in a multi-client context that the engines you listed and can handle entries of any size (provided you have enough space on the servers, of course!).

It's fully symmetric which means the load is equally distributed and replicated on all the nodes (no master node).

If you have more question feel free to mail us (don't want to highjack this thread).

Do you have a blog? Maybe you could do a write-up.. This is the kind of geek catnip that HN likes.
We do have a blog - the subject is vast. Do you have anything in particular you would like to read about?
Benchmarks against popular alternatives, explanations of how yours avoids the mistakes of MongoDB, your principles vs the other guys, your approach re: CAP, do you use MVCC and if not why is your solution better, the workloads that your solution excels at.
