- clumsysmurf 3y agoI've been doing Android development since 1.0, many Android developers are unhappy with the abusive "relationship" they have with Google, because of their control over the Play Store, your developer account, and resolving things if they come up. I'd pick any non-Google tech if there was an alternative.

Spanner is a pretty solid database, it checks all the boxes: consistency, geographic replication and transactional updates are not present at the same time in most large scale db's out there.
