It's a pretty fine line you're treading here. A lot of the reason the competition is so expensive is that they are licensing the data in bulk. There's lots of litigation in this area, see the Meltwater cases in US and UK.

The Dubliners is my desert island book. I can happily just sit there and re-read The Dead over and over again and never bore of it, there's so much there. Especially the way it builds to that incredible ending passage. His soul swoone

I agree with you completely, we use Kops and see a similar workload. The real boon for us is not in production, where the HA/error-tolerant/easy horizontal scaling certainly helps, but in development, where we can easily bring up

Nothing esoteric, git trunk with feature branches that build, test and deploy in Gitlab CI to a-feature-name.our-company-name.local on k8s, notifies QA team that there's something to check, gets approved, merged to master and release

Question: do you guys find a graphql-only API acceptable in 2019? For us to develop a (good) REST API layer on top of our existing solution is a non-trivial piece of work, and GQL offers us all we need on the front end. Customers seem ok wi

yeh we pay them like $15/month for Hub/Cloud/Private Image Storage/whatever it's called this week. It actually seems quite cheap...we have something like 2TB of tags up there, and they don't charge for network

Annoyingly, what's kept me on it is the fact that some super-niche private groups (that would otherwise be ideally suited to a forum or subreddit) have sprung up that have content that I simply can't get anywhere else.
