In a post yesterday about NoSQL comparisons, I was asking when was the last Tokyo Cabinet release. It looks like from that family of products, the ones going forward are Kyoto Cabinet and Kyoto Tycoon as Mikio Hirabayashi ☞ has announced on Twitter the release of Kyoto Cabinet 1.2.5 and Kyoto Tycoon 0.9.9:

released Kyoto Cabinet 1.2.25 and Kyoto Tycoon 0.9.9, which feature asynchronous replication!

Back in January I was writing about Kyoto Cabinet the successor of Tokyo Cabinet which reached the 1.0.0 stable version around May. Tokyo Cabinet needed Tokyo Tyrant for distributed environment.

So, if Tokyo Cabinet got Kyoto Cabinet as a successor, Tokyo Tyrant got Kyoto Tycoon as its successor. But this time it is not only an implementation language port, as Kyoto Tycoon also behaves as a cache system with support for auto expiration (something similar to memcached). Moreover Kyoto Tycoon is offering a RESTful-style interface.

Update: Brenden Grace has ☞ a post to which Mikio Hirabayashi, Tokyo and Kyoto creator, responded.
