English is a funny language - and there are some words I use frequently but have to be extra-careful with. Like "assess" - missing one 's' at the end makes it an unfortunate mistake if its the title to a slide πŸ˜€.

This made me laugh πŸ˜€πŸ˜€:. > Larry even inserted β€œRAFT” in his 23ai ppt - Reliable, Redundant, Replicated and Fault Tolerant. That said, I'm OCD when it comes to spelling it "Raft" versus "RAFT" (as in not using all caps). Maybe its just me πŸ˜€.

@FranckPachot Is a legend. His understanding of @Yugabyte is unparalleled. It would nice if he shared more talks on it. Try watching his supporting act on Multi-Region Yugabyte on Kubernetes:

Yugabyte is indeed fantastic and worth a look. Huge upgrade over Cassandra, and I would go so far as to say it’s the only attempt at distributed SQL which I would consider using in production.
