Find the self-deprecating humor quite amusing, but even better is the actual description:
"Because Javelin's design focuses heavily on solving scalability challenges, it isn't appropriate for everyone. The design implies tradeoffs, and the cost of some of these tradeoffs is increased complexity, reduced ease of development, or less flexibility"
This is really refreshingly honest, especially compared to some of the newer nosql sites we've seen lately.
Edit:
- "We designed for x, y & z to fulfill these requirements: .."
- "These are tradeoffs though, so if your needs a different,
this may not be the best approach"
It is refreshing to see something not pretending to be all things to all people whose drawbacks are only widely known after the Hype Curve starts the downwards portion..
