That's a very exaggerated way to look at things lol. Nothing got bloated at all in this process, we are just using the right tools for the job. I'm a solo founder and the only backend developer. I can assure you this decision only made my life easier by choosing the correct tech from the get go.
- BoorishBears 3y agoNothing exaggerated, your comment implied scale was your justification: in which case there'd better have been some crazy high load that just brought the tool you already had to its knees to justify paying an additional closed source platform and manually having to pipe data to it in addition to your main data store. Of course if I sounded incredulous it's because I didn't think you had that scale, and it sounds like I was correct?
- weird-eye-issue 3y agoNo, you're not correct. We have over $2M ARR and with the amount of data we are storing it would be downright stupid to use Supabase. We don't also "pipe" our data to Supabase, we use a couple different data stores depending on the best use case. For example we also use R2 and Durable Objects. Just because you have a hammer doesn't mean everything is a nail.
- BoorishBears 3y agoWell maybe we have different definitions of scale: I think my team spends about $2M a month on compute, so we don't pride ourselves on randomly pulling in new vendors.
- weird-eye-issue 3y agoYou are incredibly dense
- BoorishBears 3y agoWhen you're playing checkers people playing by the rules of chess might seem dense.
- weird-eye-issue 3y agoIt's pretty incredible how you know more about our needs, usage, and infrastructure than we do :D Also don't you think it's funny calling out somebody else's tech choices when you have zero insight into it and when it's worked out perfectly for us? By the way, how many TBs of vector data are you storing in Postgres and needing to retrieve with minimal latency?
- BoorishBears 3y agoI work on autonomous vehicles: we generate more data every day than you likely generate in 10 lifetimes of your CRUD app escapades.
- weird-eye-issue 3y agoBragging about generating lots of data? Wow, cool buddy Literally irrelevant lol
