The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[David Verdin <address@concealed>]

Hi,

I don't use it and, as I can see, a very scalable RDBMS might look a bit overkill for Sympa alone, as we're doing a quite light usage of the datbase compared to other systems.

Of course, if it is your main database cluster for the whoel information system, it makes sense to use it for Sympa too.

If it is like Postgres, you could probably use the DBD::Postgres module, which works perfectly well with Sympa. I did not find a specific Cockroach driver in CPAN.

I think that if you want to know more, you will need to experience it yourself...

Best regards,

David

Hi, there -

I'm curious if anyone is using CockroachDB (https://www.cockroachlabs.com/).  It's more or less a drop in for PostGres, at least for the functions used by Sympa.  It uses the same drivers, wire protocol, and format as PostGres.

It's a lot easier to setup than PostGres, horizontally scalable and open source.  Also, it consists of just _one file_.  It's written in GoLang.

And, no, I don't work for them, I just like the product.  :)

Thanks!

Tom
