http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/05/31/facebook_fusion_io/ block quote:

He says: "By leveraging Fusion-io cards and the new SDK, customers can turn off this journalling system, since the Fusion-io cards also have a patented logging system that protects data in the event of power failure. By turning off journalling, management stated that customers can reduce the amount of data that is stored by 50 per cent, increase throughput by 33 per cent and decrease latency by 50 per cent versus the alternative HDD storage."

Fascinating.

Who wouldn't want to be on a destructive testing team for that one?

How might point in time or incomplete recovery be performed?

Paul
