It doesn't get more web-scale than `/dev/null`. Unlimited throughout, zero latency, full availability and consistency even in the presence of partitions, and constant network usage for any number of nodes!

There's a chance of data loss, of course, but the write performance is so good that it's a perfect fit for workloads like analytics or logging.
