Yeah! Exactly! Sorry if it was unclear, but what I meant was that I saw the latest wave of DBs (Rethink + Riak) as finally letting the administration & scalability side catch up to the programmer approachability side. Anyone with significant experience knows sharding MongoDB can be a massive pain. Sharding Cassandra is easier, but it certainly lacks the juicy programmer interfaces provided by more modern solutions. I'm very excited about the work you guys are doing.
