I need to add two factoids to this insightful discussion: There is a big difference between space-filling curves and hyperspace hashing. Space-filling curves map a multidimensional…

Thanks! Unlike a kd-tree or b-tree variants, HyperDex does not build an auxiliary data structure. It turns out that keeping aux data structures in sync with the data is very diffic…

Not sure when you last looked at it, but we added the ability to cleanly shutdown and restart the cluster two releases ago. We are committed to providing a smooth upgrade path as w…

Since these kinds of leaks are very difficult to authenticate, there is an opportunity for intelligence agencies to game WikiLeaks by (slightly) altering stolen documents. I'd take…

You asked for a technical description, and also mentioned that you were unwilling to read a long, detailed technical description, and asked for a "TL;DR." I hope the short summary …

Thanks, this is a valid point. Do take a look at our basic tutorial: http://hyperdex.org/doc/tutorial/ Then the more advanced one showing asynchronous operations, atomic operations…

A real hacker would never be dismissive of code and claims backed by an open git repo and documentation. That said, HyperDex outperforms and provides stronger guarantees than previ…

Here it is http://gibbr.org/ . An undergrad implemented this on HyperDex in about half a semester.

Thanks for the note. We were flabbergasted to read the parent comment complaining about "graphs and numbers." Note that the issues raised by the Redis developer boil down to the fo…
