We have been doing exactly this at CargoSense! We have gotten very far on just Postgres but as our BI and other analytics queries have gotten more complex and our scale of “business tables” grown 20x over the last 18 months it just wasn’t

The processing unit in my espresso machine died and was back ordered for 4 months, so raspberry pi to the rescue! Is that much processing power necessary? Not even a little, but hey now it hosts its own web UI (local network only). Firmware

Hey vryotek, short version: stickiness is not necessary or important. It does use a websocket. To elaborate a bit, while each LiveView client is indeed associated with a long lived process in the LiveView server, the Phoenix framework provi

That's very cool. Presumably as well this could be opt out if you had specific operations (perhaps from a write-only API) that don't need to wait to do further writes?

In field metering situations you can have the timeline of each meter, when it records data points, and then you have the different timeline of the backend service, when it actually _receives_ data points. Bonus points if the meters can send

ARM support for the JIT is a great addition for any of us on an M1! I believe on Intel the JIT was improving compile times by 30-50%.

In practice we've seen it actually improve performance, because when fetching a data range for a device fewer actual rows have to be fetched from the disk. You pick certain columns (like device ID) that remain uncompressed and indexed

We've got a few billion rows in TSDB, pretty happy with it so far. Our workload fits the OLTP workflow more than OLAP though, we're processing / analyzing individual data points from IoT devices as they come in, and then prov

The most immediate impact I'm noticing locally is a ~25-30% improvement in compile times from the JIT, which is always a delightful find in any release. Synthetic benchmarks of the Elixir GraphQL implementation show a 64% improvement!

Hey! We're looking to evaluate TimescaleDB for a logistics IoT scenario. Some of the data that enters our system comes from connected devices where recorded_at and inserted_at columns are basically the same. Some data however is source

Hey Erik, thanks for the post. In this vision, would this cluster of servers be reserved exclusively for timeseries data, or do you imagine it containing other ordinary tables as well? We're using postgres presently for some IoT, B2B a

We've also felt the complexity of React and Apollo. It works best when, as others mentioned, you've got distinct teams that can focus on each part. In situations where that isn't the case the same decouplings that make it eas

Sorry to hear it's a bother to you. The Scala implementation of GraphQL is called Sangria, so we thought we'd continue the theme. It also has the perk of providing some fun design opportunities.
