How well does it scale? #586

Closed lonnietc closed 11 months ago

lonnietc commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I have been doing research for a new P2P project in development and need to try and locate a DB that massively scales.

It appears that go-threads "might" be capable of this since I am guessing that it uses IPFS as well but am not sure.

My project is a type of massively scaling P2P eCommerce system for which I need a good DB that can scale and also work P2P as nodes will be joining and leaving the network but if go-threads also replicates (shards) out data across nodes then that would provide for redundancy and a safety net when a particular node leave the network.

Can you please elaborate more on this for me?

Thanks and have a great day.

Hello,

Is there any update to this question?

I am wondering if Threadsdb shards data across nodes or if it merely replicate all data across each node.

Thanks
