> This article is about Cloudflare developing for their own internal control plane--I'm fairly certain their requirements preclude a single Postgres. True, but the article claims both strong consistency (sort of) and linearizability; that is basically a serializable writer and a lock; if I read correctly (I haven't read all the details), the article conflates both; afaik it is possible to have linearizability with eventual consistency; algorithms to solve concurrent writes and having multiple writers in raft is a "solved problem". sad to see such a spotty article on such important topic by a major company, even if the underlying paper is strong. This feels like manure. |
