If you read it thoroughly, he doesn't recommend against using Riak. He recommends to start out with a relational database like MySQL or Postgres if you don't know what Riak is and how you'd benefit from it, or how you data will evolve over time. Start out with one of them, add Riak to the mix later, when the need arises. Which I think is not unreasonable suggest, even if he recommends to use MySQL and Postgres in a K-V mode. My head spins from storing an EAV model in MySQL, but it's been done before and will be done again.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's how I read what he says, at least from the somewhat mixed results of the translation. Cheers, Mathias http://twitter.com/riakhandbook On Friday, 9.
