About Voldemort EntityStore

[Paul Merlin <pa...@nosphere.org>]

Gang,

Reviewing all modules I stopped on the Voldemort EntityStore.

I can't get the tests to run.
They are @Ignored for a long time as Voldemort is a bit of a
dependency-hassle.

Here are the issues I identified:

- the EntityStore use outdated Voldemort 1.3
- Latest Voldemort (1.6) version is not published to any maven repository
- Voldemort (incl. 1.6) use a lot of outdated dependencies (mortbay
jetty 6.x etc...)
- Voldemort (incl. 1.6) use a lot of dependencies that can not be found
in any maven repository (sleepycat 3.x etc...)

All this makes maintaining the Voldemort EntityStore difficult.

I propose to toss it out, except if someone yells and find solutions to
the issues above.

WDYAT?

/Paul

I am Ok with that. I doubt that it can compete on any front with HBase and
Cassandra, so we should probably put the effort in those directions.
