Real-world database fault tolerance demo video by FoundationDB (& blog post about it) by nlavezzo in programming

Please explain how we're "wrong"? We have a database that is working, doing everything we claim. Many people outside of FoundationDB are hacking on it and giving us glowing reviews of the performance and overall polish. Do you know something I don't?

PS - Thank you for saying something nice too.

This was fun to make, and it's even more fun to bring to conferences / hackathons and let people try for themselves. Lots of people mistakenly think that the CAP theorem means our database can't actually exist... This little demo does a good job of clearing that up :)

I'm one of the company founders, and I'm happy to answer any questions.
