I was going to mention Durus=E2=80=A6 we do a lot of work with it and =
still find it by far the most approachable=20
way to store in an awful lot of situations. I=E2=80=99ve got some new =
apps coming up and they will be Durus=20
based, to that end my current experiments include getting a Posgres =
storage backend running
to be able to support HA more easily with replication happening in =
Postgres. MySQL will work with
this as well.
