I should add. One of the reason I thought that RethinkDB might actually survive was that (as far as I could tell) their database not only solve scaling issues, but also helped solve real-time push to mobile apps. I'm surprised they didn't position more to mobile app devs for adoption.

When I tested RethinkDB, it was an order of magnitude slower than Postgres. That didn't match the website marketing, so I just gave up.

Dunno what that anecdote adds, but... that was my experience.
