Hi Simon, 1) it is not. 2) it does not use the S3 API, but it is a simple and clean RESTful API. 3) happy to discuss directly (feel free to email me via the website), but in general it's simpler to get started, easier to use, and more flexible from a data management perspective.

I would love to know how it compares to RIAK. I'm not afraid to used used closed source software when the time is right. But RIAK has a long legacy and is open and free - and backed by commercial support if needed. When I went to download your product there was an incredibly long form. Maybe I'll check it out later, but perhaps you should reduce your barrier to entry.

Hi lucasjans, thanks for your note. The form should have been short and only a small set of fields required. We'll look into ways of optimizing that to reduce the appearance of friction. Happy to discuss your use case and how we feel about how we compare if you'd like to send me an email (joel at maraudersoftware dot com). Cheers

Not open source? Thanks. Now I don't have to waste my time and click the link.
