#2Looks like a nice product, but I can't seem to find details on the internal message routing... Is it built on Redis pub/sub, Riak itself, or something else altogether?
And I wish the branding was toned down. As it is, I'm reluctant to direct coworkers or friends to the site despite my interest.

It's Riak Core.

#4Do I understand correctly that Basho is now a platform-as-service company, like Compose or Heroku, rather than an enterprise database product company?

Doesn't seem that way to me. I see it as a way of taking some elaborate service integration work and wrapping it up as a platform one might deploy in house.

#6Basho has experienced some MAJOR brain drain in the last year. I wonder if this re-positioning is related to that.

New CEO and CTO a year ago are a likely source of repositioning: http://basho.com/basho-names-new-ceo-and-cto/
I can't speculate on how that all relates to brain drain.

Well they have to monitze effectively if they expect to retain talent, and so it's definitely related in that way.
It's a nice database, but not well understood. I've found it difficult to communicate how everything fits together to people do don't use this stuff everyday, so maybe this will help? At least it makes it clear that a seemingly complex configuration is perfectly valid and workable in practice.

Given tweets like this one (https://twitter.com/jtuple/status/598230043093897216), there doesn't seem to be much to speculate about.

#10Biggest thing I can't stand about the new overhaul is the barrier for the open source version - I want to evaluate for my purposes, not give you my email.
Been following Riak for some time now, and I'm hopeful this will do good things for Basho.
