All those who helped me moving from China to US are all leaving, actually I hesitated to say “all” as I know there is one who will never leave :).

Let’s skip those non-techy people, then here where they went: one goes to eBay, running its biggest offshore R&D center (at least one of the biggest, I’m not quite sure), another one goes to Microsoft (yea, lots of Yahoos went to Microsoft) running their data center division, and this one is said to go to China, though I don’t have any details yet.

I now can say, I stay here longer than them, so ideally I can move on now – I short of one excuse to stay here.

I came across this article today, which talks about non-RDBMS solution for data storage (or a fancy name, data persistent layer).

It’s a great start point – I’ve been thinking about non-RDBMS solution for a while, but other than LDAP I don’t have anything else in my mind (weird enough, seems LDAP is not in the list, maybe it’s just too old to be “new tech”).

I will try out those projects mentioned in the article, and will post some data here if I get anything.
