Interesting how recently there's been two projects providing a wire-level compatible alternative to an established database using postgres as the bacckend.
First Amazon's project to offer a SQL Server-compatible solution and now this to replace MongoDB. I recognize they are of entirely different orders of magnitude at the moment but it's still very interesting to me how versatile yet performant postgres can be.
