And then there is predictability
Coral8 at the time of a recent product release stated that it was improving the predictability of its queries. While this may sound like it has something to do with determinism, it doesn’t. Rather, it’s a matter of making what actually happens as a query result be more in line with what one would think will happen when one reads the query.
Coral8 CTO Mark Tsimelzon goes on to note:
But remember, we are really talking about a corner case — highly complex queries involving loops. We only had a couple of customers who were occasionally hitting queries that complex. The beauty of our SQL-based language is that the vast majority of queries, perhaps 99%, are very easy to understand, and their behavior is exactly what you’d expect based on your SQL experience.
