Thanks. I just heard about this place today from my other home online Spiceworks. Does this place have a mango level?
No mango levels
A bunch of things are designed to be specifically different from SW for two reasons... one where possible we wanted to learn from them and improve rather than copying their decisions that didn't make sense (NoSQL database for example) while also not wanting to be a copy cat any more than necessary. The idea isn't to be "another" SW, but to have our own value, direction and purpose. Is there overlap? Heck yeah, can't be avoided. But we certainly aren't trying to copy them just to do so, only where it really makes sense. They figured a lot of things out that are worth copying, of course.You'll notice we don't really have categories either, we have tags.
Funny... nearly ten years on SW things that I told them to do... use NoSQL for speed, use tags not groups, don't have points and levels. LOL I just realized that ML is the SW that I told them to make long ago
Maybe we didn't learn as much from them as just planned this better from the beginning. -
@scottalanmiller Showoff!

@jeremyscalpello I've used your product a few times, in fact.
That's awesome, glad it's being used out in the wild.

@scottalanmiller Wait NoSQL for what?

The database backend.
-
The community or the product?

More like a style of databases... Not your typical MySQL or MSSQL... This is something different.

Also useful for this shirt I'm wearing. Thanks Cassandra conference
I like Cassandra a lot, but we use MongoDB. Which I like a lot, too.
-
@scottalanmiller I meant for spiceworks.
-
We used Cassandra a ton at Change. Very popular there.

Oh, well specifically for the community, but the application, too. Nothing that they are doing really makes sense with a relational database. It kills them in scaling and performance and complexity. There is so much that they are limited on because of their database choices.
-
Gotcha, so what do they use for the community? mysql?
From my understanding the application uses sqlite.
-
@thwr Oh I didn't really need a mango level any more than I need a spice level, it was more of a rhetorical joke

Meaning we don't need to laugh?

PostgreSQL. Which is very good. But not for that kind of workload.
Yes SQLite for the app.

You can laugh both rhetorically and sarcastically. I'll even allow guffaws and chortles.
