Brian "Krow" Aker's Idle Thoughts - Column Stores, Drizzle, Search For
"Very early on when we started work on Drizzle the plan was to focus web applications. When we looked at cutting features, one of the criteria was "is this needed for web deployment". In many cases we have leaned toward keeping functionality when it was clearly well designed and had a general usefulness. To give an example, ROLLUP for instance is not typically used for web applications, but it is a well written feature that provides us with functionality that we find is handy."

John Sequeira's Weblog
"I can't get past the fact that there's no SQL. I know why there's no SQL, (Brewer's Conjecture etc) and I have some experience with it. I've been doing years of mostly-simple mashup stuff with quickbase, which is a similar PaaS-backing non-relational data store. It has it's place, but it's hard to imagine really cranking out something complicated with it. When I do code reviews for clients, the biggest improvements come from transforming procedural cursor logic back into set-oriented db-logic, and AppEngine wants you to go the opposite direction. Sigh."
