Should have been three weeks from that date.
Pretty cool, though. Good job!

I can start talking about it without NDA now - that's going to be a hard habit to break! Investors would be cool right now - that's what I'm asking Santa for!
The "necessity" part of the "mother of invention" was when two partners (that I have in this venture) and I were creating a document management system. Typically you tell these kinds of systems what kind of "tags" you want in advance for indexing the documents. I went into these R&D sessions ADAMANT that I would not allow tables and indexes to be created for each and every lookup possibility.
The ever more common "key/value" databases have no relationships and indexes at all...
I guess we are the best of both worlds.
This would be our new "elevator pitch" - I got to change a word today!
Typical RDBMS implementation
Typical Key/value implementation. How do you INDEX for COLOR? Or TRANSMISSION for that part?
There is ZERO schema here - thus ZERO relationship.
So the burn, imo, is the number of tables and columns in the RDBMS - that entity count gets higher and higher and flexibility tanks.
Must get off that ride - limit to one TABLE - one COLUMN - one INDEX - all in one.
That is what is unique and got us the patent. You would have to go to the PAIR site - https://portal.uspto.gov/pair/PublicPair - and look up that patent # - go to PUBLISHED documents - click on the PATENT - click on IMAGES button - figure 1E and 1F - on sheet 5. That is the magic sauce - I can clearly recall the "aha" moment that they say is part of this process - on a bus going to Medieval Times as a chaperone!
Couldnt locate the images but bottom line, will this make you money?
So, a bus to something old led you to something new? Everybody knows that.
Actually, since this discussion is running the very real risk of being serious, I should also add that I was kind of skimming, and saw the bit about "medieval" and "bus", and thought you were talking about some old hardware architecture.
I can remember working on my first medieval bus - really just a loop of water. Did control traffic though - packets were either let in or dropped in the moat.
Next came the Token Ring - unfortunately that was a misspelling - it was really a Tolkien ring.
Output was done through Defenestration Windows (v0.0.0). And that output was permanent to say the least!
Its actually raining today! Cold too! :(

If you want it to work on windows you're going to need "more doors".
@SzLamany, I'm interested but the link doesn't work for me (says "Service Unavailable") and I don't understand what's new about that from what you've posted here. There obviously is something new because you got your patent but it looks like a standard document orientated database. What am I missing? (I'm guessing what I'm missing is at the other end of that link)
Yeah, you're missing the other end of the link. The examples shown were, "this is what we have now", whereas there was no such picture for "this is what it new". That is what's in the link.
Ah, I miss-read it and thought the second post was "this is what is new". Hopefully the link'll work for me from home. I've been looking for a decent way of implementing schemaless storage for a while now so I'll be very curious to see what SzLamany has achieved.Quote:

Happy Friday guys!
I'm headed up to Ft. Hood this weekend to visit my brother and then headed to Cali next weekend! This is a busy December!
