Same question I always ask, who is using it in prod? How huge the database size is? I’ve used postgresql with almost 200+ GB size of single table and it works like breeze! What are caveats, traps I should be aware of?
Yes. I'm also curious about what kind of tradeoffs I would be making by choosing arangodb over postgres, etc. For example, with Postgres you have acid but not much in the way of horizontal scale-out. With Redis you have speed (single thread, though), but data must fit in ram. What am I giving up by choosing this DB?
It's a broad band antibiotic. It's meant to be applicable to all purpose databasing. Horizontal scaling is given but you need to reshard your collections. Great, no exaggeration, overall performance and in some special cases better than specialized databases. My 2 cents.
Just take it and bombard it with 1TB of generated data. Good test data sets out there too?
