What a great story and really interesting courage to double-down on improving the testing even when a critical flaw that testing should have found was found. Wish that they had managed long enough for Snowflake to keep them alive, but then we wouldn't have Antithesis as a service so silver lining.


By "keep them alive", you mean the team, right? People are definitely still using FDB!


The team pushing forward the vision. Using FDB is a fraction of the vision if you listen to them.


Makes sense, thanks! Antithesis is pretty neat, though (we use it for a distributed system thing here).
