    This talk confused me. The solution that Nathan proposed used 3 different NoSQL engines. One for permanent storage, one with the aggregated data and one with the latest updates...

    I have the impression that Nathan uses the word "Sanity" for exactly the opposite meaning... We do similar things where I work, and we don't use a single NoSQL solution.
