Very interesting article Sven. "How many companies really need to cope with data at the scale of Google, Facebook or Twitter? Incidentally three companies that grew up on the open source database MySQL." And related with that quote, one of things that puzzled me a few weeks ago was WebScaleSQL (http://webscalesql.org/) And if you look at its FAQs (http://webscalesql.org/faq.html), Google, Facebook and Twitter are supporters of this project. Also, Google provides SQL (MySQL) in its Google Cloud services, so there is certainly a big demand for this. So coming back to Pharo realm, this is why I think ORM is really important for us, and I'm really happy this discussion finally took place. Best regards! Esteban A. Maringolo
