Comment on Reddit: Lessons Learned From Scaling To 1 Billion Pageviews A Monthparent

The functionality was always there:

    CREATE TABLE kvstore (
        key VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
        value VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL
     );
Or are you referring to hstore?

I'm talking about the JSON-specific functionality, which tends to make doing JSON-based, document-oriented, key-value-ish things in PostgreSQL significantly better, easier, faster, whatever-er.

And this is how reddit does it, reddit doesn't use hstore.
