An Operator's Look at RethinkDB

An Operator's Look at RethinkDB

Matt Blair - @mattyblair - Flipboard

The Getting Started Experience

  • It's in Homebrew and just runs (relative to, say, HBase): awesome!
  • Having packages for popular Linux distros (I use Ubuntu personally and at work): awesome!
  • Serving the GPG key over HTTP: not so awesome :-/
  • apt-get -y install rethinkdb
  • It didn't start by default- great! I hate when services do this. I then looked at the start script to see how it knew (usually daemons use /etc/default/blah, but it has custom logic to see if there's anything in /etc/rethinkdb/instances.d, which is cool).
