They are talking about live-store, and the complexity of distributed applications like a notes app with the ability to go offline and continue working. The complexity of resyncing each instance is not simple, conflict resolution accross all the possible installs that may or may not even be online is a really hard problem. They go deep on discussing an event driven paradigm that is driven off of a log of events and how this changes how we deal with databases. Using the event log as the source of truth we can do things like forget about database migrations, we can replay all of the events onto a new database. Its very interesting to rethink in terms of a log system that speaks in terms of understandable events (not table operations) as the source of truth for an application.</p> <div class="admonition note"> <p class="admonition-title">Note</p> <p>This post is a <a href="/thoughts/" class="wikilink" data-title="Thoughts" data-description="These are generally my thoughts on a web page or some sort of url, except a rare few don&#39;t have a link.
