I love the notion of co-located processing and data, but most of the data stores dont quite embrace it. Well actually Riak does quite well if you're fine with a dynamo like kv store. The riak library is actually pretty nifty for distributed computations. But with Basho out of business it's harder to justify. Plus KV stores really aren't as usable as good ole sql. In that realm there's ActorDB, but I've not been able to figure out how to run it inside my own beam cluster rather than standalone.

Hadn't heard of ActorDB. Interesting. But is it alive? Seems inactive.
It seems dead and it relies on some (older) rebar stuff. And the custom "actor" syntax would probably break Ecto..
