Redisql looks pretty sweet! To be frank, and this is only my personal opinion, I don't think I would want to pay for an api, but rather run my own. The business model of providing everything OSS but sending telemetry seems rather intriguing; as a hobbyist user I am ok with such telemetry being collected. If I were to run it in production for a business app though, I wouldn't even bother considering the unpaid version for the following reasons:
1. I do not want my production instance to shut down for WHATEVER reason. This is just not an acceptable risk for most businesses. The only time a DB can go down is something goes wrong.
2. As an engineer, I understand that 3 counters that are not accurate aren't a big deal. I can even look into the source and see that they really do as you say. Justifying this to a security org will be a complete nightmare, as most security orgs in enterprises are staffed with barely technical folks masquerading as "security".
So, it seems like a pretty good way to coerce enterprises to pay up while letting hobbyists continue using it. Very smart, I wish you the very best!
- siscia 7y agoThanks! That was exactly my reasoning. Make it available and simple for hobbyist and small companies, ask money to who can afford it to sustain the development.
