The storage server is free to use any database technology or schema, mostly independent of the client browser. The main goals are to achieve high durability and uptime, fast service, and minimum cost. | |||
The workload will be pretty write-heavy. Accounts with just a single device (i.e. just backup, not sync) are pretty common, and these will be almost entirely writes. Some datatypes are more "hot" than others (e.g. open-tabs are updated with every click, while bookmarks only change when the user specifically creates or modifies one), so we might want to mark the collections with hints that tell the server how to best manage the records. | |||
