[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-2806?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Aleksandar Kostadinov commented on ISPN-2806: --------------------------------------------- I am wondering why invest energy in your own data store instead of using something dedicated? I see JDBM4/MapDB as a good candidate. There seem to be various initiatives around SQLite but most of them are JNI. I am asking because I see a lot of potential in using local disk space as data store. In a very common cloud environment you have instances with a lot of ephemeral storage that is not generally usable for anything but cache. So this storage that can be terabytes in size and is just waiting for a fast and reliable file store implementation. Setting up a local RDBMS seems to me an overkill and only imposes operational and maintenance overheads. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
