On: Redis Turns 10 – How it started with a single post...

[davidw]

One of the funny things is that I've still never really used Redis directly, only as a sort of opaque part of other things.

I posted that link because I've known antirez for a long time, worked with him at Linuxcare, and when he said he was working on something cool - I believed him!

Thanks for the trust :-D

I thought it was funny that the author of OP said that "...one suggested Salvatore re-write Redis in Erlang" and it turned out to be you!

[davidw → jdelman]

It was more of an excuse to get him to play with Erlang some... I always thought he might find it fun to work with.

Did he ever try it?

[davidw → vorticalbox]

Not too seriously afaik.

Was he one of the Prosa folks back then?

[antirez → schoen]

Nope I joined with many ex Prosa to Linux Care IT. So many people were the same but different company.
