tin

A database so tiny, its name had to be shortened.

What

A sequential paradigm for databases & its demonstration implementation.

Why

Designed for cheap (as in $$), high-performance (as in Gbit/s) access — but well, which database system isn't these days?

When

This strain of the paradigm was first used in production in 2008, as a way to serve terabytes of financial data daily, at a major stock exchange.

What??

More details coming soon here, and during the no:sql(east) conference.

Phonetical Nitpicking

“tin” is pronounced: /taɪn/, as in “tiny”.
