Thanks for posting this dragonsh! I am Jaime, Founder of SurrealDB with my brother Tobie. Just the two of us at the moment but we have some some really big things planned for the database. Any feedback is really welcome!
Hey! I see you mention graph relations, and was wondering if it would be possible to use SurrealDb to store data about eg people and events and query the database to retrieve "proximity" out of that data, ie number of "hops" between two or more people.
Coukd you elaborate on that or point me to the right direction?
Apart from your buzzword marketing, what features are actually available for use today? Most are "on the roadmap." Reminds me of Spacedrive which literally launched with a "nice UI" and no actual features that they advertise for.
Hi johnwoods - Tobie founder of SurrealDB here. We're updating our website so it's clearer, but in the meantime, the best page to see the current functionality is our features page https://surrealdb.com/features
We're also looking to improve our roadmap page soon, which will detail everything we're working on and planning to work on in the near term, and in the future!
Hi Jaime, this is my first time hearing about SurrealDB and it looks awesome! Do you have any documentation outlining the system architecture and how it works under the hood? Thanks for the great work!
You might know this already, but what you are creating here is future state-of-the-art.
That said, please make GraphQL and Apollo Federation support a high priority. SurrealDB could be a gamechanger but federation would allow it to be integrated into existing supergraphs, which is an enterprise requirement for adoption.
