I think the use cases in this announcement are well-laid out. There's not _a ton_ that I think fits well for these container apps, but pganalyze or New Relic monitoring etc are great examples. Some of this stuff being just _a little bit easier_ to maintain and manage is a big help to smaller teams.
- craigkerstiens 5y agoThanks! There is definitely a full range, from being a "science project" running things like varnish or Redis from inside PG. The turnkey apps are maybe really easy and useful in certain cases. But you nailed it with some that are really just simple but practical like pganalyze. For us it's a lot of fun because you have practical, but then can do the absolute crazy things because sometimes software engineering should be fun.

CouchDB supports "select index.html && index.js from my_couchdb.some_app" so you can have a UI bundled with your DB Blob. Additionally, since the UI is "just some documents", technically they can update + sync to other distributed DB's. It's a very interesting concept to make apps more cohesive by including (not just HTML+JS), but also a full docker container that could talk to the datastore w/o any intermediaries. We're finally coming full circle with PHP5's bundling of SQLite, and are instead having Postgres effectively bundling PHP. :-P
