Hey Riak-Users (and Riak-Core) Some time ago, Basho released riak_core as a framework for building distributed applications [1]. One of the key pieces of guidance that was given at the time was that you should use the features of riak_kv if your app needed to do any persistence. With the new features we'll be releasing in 2.0 [2], we want to make riak_core the best toolkit for building complex distributed applications with both CP and AP semantics.
As I see it, the main thing that is preventing most people from writing their own riak_core application is that there's not an API that allows people to easily do so. There's a basic internal KV client at the moment, but there are some features that it doesn't cover. Post-RICON (and almost certainly after the 2.0 release), I'm going to focus on making riak_core applications really easy to make, and riak_kv easy to use from a riak_core application. I'd love any feedback that you all have. How can we improve the current APIs? How can we make it really easy for people to create riak_core apps? How can we nicely expose the newest features of riak_kv for people to use in their riak_core applications? Bonus points for feedback from anyone who has built and run a riak_core application in production.
