Ask HN: Which OSS systems have been rock solid to run in prod?
I’ll start:
Redis and Postgres just work in my experience and perform fairly well under load.
By contrast - have had painful experiences with Zookeeper and HBase.
Cassandra, ElasticSearch, and Kafka are somewhere in the middle.
Curious about RedPanda, DragonflyDB, ScyllaDB, Materialize, and other newer systems.

- aynyc 4y agoI used sqlite3 in production as part of ETL pipeline, works perfectly fine for years even as the volume scaled up.

- nicbou 4y agoNginx is a pain in the butt to configure properly, but it's rock solid.
