Comment on How FarmVille Scales to Harvest 75 Million Players a Monthparent

Good luck to you too! You've got an interesting approach to scaling, hope it works out (cheaply).

Yes, I've looked at Neo4j, and I would've tried that if it weren't for this (from their home page):

Neo4j is released under a dual free software/commercial license model (which basically means that it’s “open source” but if you’re interested in using it in commercially, then you must buy a commercial license).

Thus MongoDB. I just heard of Riak the other day, and might check that out too since it has the concept of links built in. I'm also still early enough in the work that I can afford to switch still.
