Mashape Analytics comes pre-packaged in Docker containers, with its own internal setup of storage solution and tools.

we'll also be exposing a cold-storage mechanism, so you can move historical data out of the system when no-longer needed and retain it for your own future auditing.

Cool - any plan to support external storage/db? May I ask, just out of curiosity, what are you guys currently using?
not likely to support external storage, as the architecture of the system is highly tweaked to provide the best performance.

however there is no limit to how many containers you can expand to (to share the load/storage)

and that's also why we're offering the cold-storage option, so you can move your data freely.

furthermore, everything is accessible through an API as well, so integration and manipulation of your data is a breeze

Awesome, thank you
