Just adding my benchmarking repo, that contains terraform code and scripts using which I performed the benchmarks, helpful for re-evaluating and verifying the numbers published on our website. And possibly to learn where we might have gone wrong.
From one Murtaza (who also worked on NoSql DBs) to another, congrats on the launch! The benchmark numbers are impressive. For a database, as always, durability guarantees (in case of in-memory setups, this would translate to any of the "reasonable" forms of consistency, like read your writes) trump speed. Hopefully, there's some focus on that, too.
