Uff, I had no idea that Postgres v15 introduced WAL_LOG and changed the defaults from FILE_COPY. For (parallel CI) test envs, it make so much sense to switch back to the FILE_COPY strategy ... and I previously actually relied on that behavi

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure tries to fill exactly this sweet spot. Cheaper compute than the other hyperscalers, while still offering similar security features (TPM, Shielded Instances, Measured Boot) and a bare-metal-first focus. Disclaimer

Happy to hear that! When it comes to testing services that depend on PostgreSQL, this is still my preferred solution. https://github.com/allaboutapps/integresql disclaimer: author

No and we are happily using it within our overcommitted cluster (combination of shared and dedicated nodepools). We are a small team of 5 infrastructure engineers and previously managed 200+ libvirt VMs running on bare-metal HA hypervisors

I really tried to like netbird, but their current hard dependency on auth0 (also when selfhosting) unfortuantly put me off. Your statements regarding NAT punching are on the other hand very interesting. I'm currently trying out innerne

I really love tailscale for my private network. Nevertheless, I still hope they will revisit support for proper linux kernel wireguard sometime in the near future. This would allow to ditch separate meshing technologies for connecting serve

I can confirm that goaccess databases works great for incrementally regenerating these HTML reports. We currently pipe all logs from all our ingress-nginx LBs every 15 minutes (and grep by virtual host) to goaccess and thus update its repor

Author here, your feedback is highly appreciated. Providing better documentation for the RESTful JSON endpoints of this project is our next top priority. Seems like it would be important to have a minimal example (e.g. curl + psql in a shel

Yes, monolithic Go RESTful JSON API services - we currently depend on go-swagger, SQLBoiler (PostgreSQL) and echo. Workflow: we use VSCode with devContainers (docker-compose local dev env), our tasks are simply defined in a Makefile. Our hi

yep, currently it forces our engineers to use VS Code or a terminal-based setup (or GitHub Codespaces). Hopefully Goland / IntelliJ catches up in this year...

Can only second this, we use a VSCode devContainer-based setup in all of our projects and even migrate our legacy projects to it (software agency). Here's our current base go template, you only need Docker+VSCode on your system to get

Highly appreciated hint (original author). Note that I haven't updated this project in ~4 years and it's still spinning on Heroku's free tier, haven't spend a penny for the API hosting costs. Some recommendations regardi

While PostgreSQL templates allow to scaffold new databases (one per test-spec) quite fast, it's even faster to have a warmed up pool of databases ready: https://github.com/allaboutapps/integresql#background Discla

Great points! Any hints regarding preexisting linters for go code that errors if we execute outside (an already opened) db transaction? Also, regarding writing tests against real PostgreSQL databases, isolated per test and without losing sp

I'm sorry, our documentation is not ready for primetime yet (an OpenAPI spec for this RESTful JSON API managing PostgreSQL test databases is still missing). However, I've just updated the Background - feel free to file an issue if

I'm generally not a fan of emulating database behavior through a mocking layer while testing/implementing. Even minor version changes of PostgreSQL plus it's extensions (e.g. PostGIS) may introduce slight differences, e.g. ho

Yep, inspecting the actual database state after multiple test failures directly is very nice (we log the used test-database after before every test, so it's easy to connect afterwards). Regarding cleanup: We run configure a max pool si

We did several benchmarks back in the day and it definitely depends on the size of your migrations + fixtures that you need in every test. Performance increases were simply huge for us, despite the serial execution of our tests in our legac

Yep, disabling fsync, synchronous_commit and full_page_writes ONLY for this PostgreSQL integration testing strategy gives us an additional boost of ~35% in overall testing speed. https://github.com/allaboutapps/go-sta

We are using PostgreSQL templates to speed up our integration tests. This allow us to have full blown (and non mocked) databases which are isolated to each parallel running test. We have recently open-sourced our core-server managing this (
