Heroku hstore: Key Value Store Inside Relational Database

Heroku hstore: Key Value Store Inside Relational Database

By Krishnan Subramanian on March 16, 2012

Heroku (previous CloudAve coverage), the PaaS company under Salesforce, announced recently that they will be supporting key value store inside their Postgres database instances. Named hstore, it takes advantage of Postgres’ extensibility. Ever since MySQL was gobbled up by Oracle, Postgres has been getting additional developer love from the community.

NoSQL Is Not SQL And That’s A Problem

By Chirag Mehta on March 5, 2010

I do recognize the thrust behind the NoSQL movement. While some are announcing an end of era for MySQL and memcached others are questioning the arguments behind Cassandra’s OLTP claims and scalability and universal applicability of NoSQL. It is great to see innovative data persistence and access solutions that challenges the long lasting legacy of RDBMS. Competition […]
