Another (non-technical) founder here - and I echo everything voidmain just said. We built a product that is unmatched in so many important ways, and it's fantastic that it's available to the world again. Will be exciting to watch a community grow around it - this is a product that can benefit hugely from OS contributions as layers that sit on top of the core KV store.

I wrote a java port of the python counter many moons ago [1]. Will have to resurrect it!

It should probably be pointed out that atomic increment is in most situations a more efficient solution for high contention counters in modern FDB.

Ah I don’t believe that was available last time I used it - I’ll check it out thanks!

Ditto. So glad to see FoundationDB available again! Both the tech and the company have been missed. (Former FoundationDB Solutions Engineer :) )

Nice to see you are joining back!
