What Hacker News says?
SEOmoz have been seeing extreme volatility in EC2 spot pricing - could this have been related to pre-release testing of Silk? http://devblog.seomoz.org/2011/09/amazon-ec2-spot-request-vo...

HN discussionI can definitely do that. As of 2 hours after the post, we've had a good number of referrals and 3 applicants. Jobvite's system does a good job of storing lots of interesting data, so hopefully I can share metrics in a follow-up. That might go on our dev blog (rather than the main blog) - http://devblog.seomoz.org/

HN discussionAt SEOmoz, we use riak for our rankings collection service, which is written using sinatra and resque. We blogged about, in case you're interested: http://devblog.seomoz.org/2011/10/using-riak-for-ranking-col... I know of a couple other ruby shops that use riak. Github uses it a bit. Spreedly uses it as well.

HN discussionI wrote a similar blog post back at my old job about our usage of Riak. http://devblog.seomoz.org/2011/10/using-riak-for-ranking-col... Keep in mind we used Riak pre-1.0, so YMMV.
