Hello list, I am looking for some clever comments and critique. This is my first post, so have patience with my loutish behavior :)
At the company where I work we have built an EventMachine <http://rubyeventmachine.com/> based Ruby client to Riak that simplifies both asynchronous HTTP requests and a few relation concepts. You can find it at https://github.com/ProjectDaisy/blodsband if you are interested. In this project I have added a few things that add a synchronous layer on top of Riak. For example a compare-and-set method that guarantees uniqueness of a document update. This is used for a #put_if_missing method, a Lock class to synchronize operations, and (lo and behold) a linked list class using Riak documents for elements. All these things, of course, assume that the cluster is not partitioned in any way more interesting than a bunch of nodes being offline. Split brain would break all synchronization. They all seem to work in our tests, but I would be very happy for some peer review educated comments! regards, //Martin _______________________________________________ riak-users mailing list riak-users@lists.basho.com http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com
