Hey! I'm Patric, and I just hit a major milestone - Genesis DB 1.0.(1) is officially production-ready. Why I built this: Existing event sourcing tools felt too heavy, opinionated, or expensive. I wanted something that matches how developers actually think about events - simple, transparent, and powerful. What Genesis DB is: - Event sourcing database engine written in Go - HTTP + JSON interface (no proprietary protocols) - CloudEvents native with zero vendor lock-in - One-command backups/restores - Built-in Prometheus metrics & structured logging Major features that made it to 1.0: - Smart validation - Preconditions act as gatekeepers, enforcing business logic before writes hit the database - Schema registration - Automatic event validation for type safety and data consistency - Native GDPR compliance - One-command user data deletion, full data portability, built-in audit trails - Battle-tested performance - Thousands of events/second, zero data loss, stable under load - ... The journey: - Started because I love event-driven architectures but hated the tooling complexity - A few versions, each adding features - Now processing real production workloads across multiple industries Want to try it? - Free tier: 10,000 events for testing/small projects (I’m not here to be the biggest cost factor in any business. If you’ve got special requirements, let’s talk.) - Self-host or use the managed platform (coming soon) Full docs at https://docs.genesisdb.io https://docs.genesisdb.io Thanks for reading!
