What Hacker News says?

  1. Meteor.js used the MongoDB's oplog, which is used to replicate changes to other nodes, to provide real time update to it's clients. You can query the oplog yourself easily [0]. I also remember someone doing a version for MySql using the same approach. [0] http://www.briancarpio.com/2012/04/21/mongodb-the-oplog-expl...
