[erlang-questions] Getting attributes

[Steve Davis]

Hi all,

Suppose I have a 2 dimensional plane {x, y} of 64k by 64k coordinates.

Each coordinate has a mutable attribute {{x, y}, attribute}

If I need to query: What are the attributes of positions "next to" my position, i.e: x +- 1, y +- 1?

What is the correct solution to this without storing everything in "Oracle" and using relational queries?

Can this be sensibly maintained in a KV store?
