Comment on Ask HN: Is it feasible to use redis as the only datastore?

Comments

I was asking myself the same question and my answer was Draw![1]. I made this little app to learn more about Redis and html5 canvas element.

I wrote model/helper classes to wrap repetitive redis code, you can check the source at Draw! github repository[2].

Anyway after this experience I learnt Redis is a great tool but it doesn't fit good as a datastore for "everything" you should store for your app.
