Gotcha.
I'm also excited about the modern distributed databases. They're pretty awesome.
But yeah, a HN comment is not the right place to design a resilient DB setup. Like I said it's not terra incognita, but it's also not just "spin up a postgres".
- _vvhw 5y ago"Gotcha. I'm also excited about the modern distributed databases. They're pretty awesome." Awesome! "HN comment is not the right place to design a resilient DB setup." Why not? In my experience, HN is always the place to talk about building stuff, running stuff, and how to do that better. :)
- knorker 5y agoWell, one reason is "you're posting often, slow down". I tried to reply yesterday, but was blocked. The gist of my reply yesterday was "depends on requirements, and even they will be huge. And if we just design from made up requirements that's a lot of work to produce a design that nobody will use".
