re: Beware Stale Data

Great Post! Not seeing the presentation you are talking about, I totally agree with your observation. This scenario is not something most consumers would be happy with. I do believe there are scenarios that do not require realtime data, but these are clearly not them. Off the top of my head, I would think any system that does mapping, weather, or long term application processing could employ his techniques. In these scenarios the data changes more slowly and are not as important. A few hours of delay isn't going to dramatically change the way the applications that interact with this data work. Anything that like banking, ticket sales or traffic on the otherhand needs to be realtime. Great article!

I wasn't aware of this either until a co-worker had mentioned that you recently told him about this. This is extremely valuable and you know its value if you have ever run into performance issues on heavy usage applications. This is something we will definately be using in the future. I love that it is just built-in. n Thanks for sharing!

This is such a great oppertunity. I wish they would have had this when I started by business as it would have been a huge help.
