The TLDR Macrometa is a geo-distributed, real-time, streaming DB with a multi-modal interface (K/V, Doc, Streams, Graph, Time Series). Unlike centralized eventually consistent DBs, Macrometa is a natively geo-replicated DB that uses C

You bring up a great point. One absolutely can use us as a firebase alternative. We have a few customers using us with lambda and container services directly on their favorite cloud provider in just 2 locations for high availability of the

Yes - you hit the nail in the head - that is indeed how SPOT and regular collections work. We think we provide the flexibility of both very strict acid behavior using spot collections Along with the strong eventual consistency model for ev

Thanks for pointing out the ambiguous bits - I’ll clean it up in the next few days. Yes it does solve the double spend - it let’s you mark (check box) a collection with a SPOT property (single point of truth) which restricts the number of e

Hello and greetings the_arun. The short answer is yes. Macrometa integrates a function as service (FaaS) which can be hooked into the database and be triggered by events on a stream or a data collection. So you can for example do the follo

ok Take 2: 1. We use causal consistency using vector clocks to establish the causal order of operations instead of using Time stamping and Network Time Protocol which are unreliable over WAN distances 2. We share Database state changes&#x2

The TL/DR on how: 1. Causal consistency with the ability to create collections (tables) with strict consistency - uses vector clocks and not wall clock timestamps for ordering DB operations 2. Streams to propagate DB changes from one g
