Ask HN: is anyone using TokuDB in production?

3 points by davidbrai ↗ HN
From reading their website (http://www.tokutek.com/) seems a bit "too good". I was googling around trying to find companies that use it in production but didn't find anything except for the ones listed on tokutek's website.

The main features that interest me are: - Handling large data (>300M rows) - Hot columns & indexes additions - Multiple clustered indexes

Is anyone here using it in production? If so, can you tell a bit about the pros & cons? Did anyone consider it but decided using something else instead? If so, why?

I probably would if i could afford it (DNSDigger.com).

Did you try it? I think it has a 30 day trial

1. My dataset us bigger than that (100GB+). 2. Even if it would fit i currently does not make the money to afford it (Fev paying customer to my service). So i am using vanilla MySQL 5.5.x. Gonna experiment with Postgresql in the near future.

I would love to have a "Powered by ..." logo for a license ;)

Would be great if you could share your experience once you experiment with postgresql
