[Herddb-dev] herddb-dev Digest, Vol 14, Issue 2

[Amit Chavan]

Thanks for the feedback Ale.

How do we get the benchmark updated? This is something I have not looked at
with Herddb. Is there currently any benchmark we run that I can look into.
Do we feel comfortable with admin tools/UI we have to have smaller
companies or projects take on herddb from more traditional DB's. I also
found this link which had some interesting ideas -
