If you rent a cloud vps as an ingress you can run an overlay network and your actual hosted services can literally be anywhere. See nebula, netbird, etc. You can also ssh forward, but that doesn't scale well past a handful of service

The weight check is the worst. Most stores I go to have it disabled and it makes the process go smoother. Not perfect though, it occasionally flags me for some kind of miss scan and I have to wait for an employee to clear it. Most of them

That part of true. Using EC2 at AWS now and it's much more expensive than vultr, Hetzner, or akamai cloud.

Ingress that handles SSL. nginx, or caddy. Then stand up your app server behind that on the same VM. Database can be on the same or different VM. I try to not use anything else if I can avoid it on a new project. Ingress gives you the abi

You get portability. Which the functions do not provide. Open source solutions have a longer career utility than proprietary offerings. I remember when NetWare certs were all the rage. Useless now. I remember msce. But if you learned o

It's not that hard. Particularly for simple deployments, which a startup should have or they are doing it wrong.

Living in a home without clutter helps you deal with them because there are fewer places for them to hide. But this will not prevent spread or occupation by them. Steaming is an effective treatment but only reasonable if there is no clutte

The Dell wyse 5070 idles close to 3-5 watts. A bit more than the pi, but pretty close. It's older now, can be picked up cheaper than a pi off eBay. DDR 4, sata m.2, on board emmc flash. M.2 a-key for WiFi. Max 16GB ram. When you t

> AWS has some complicated features that they don't really explain well. Yeah... Complicated... What do you do for disk IOPS? Seems like they make you sip through a straw unless you pay them big bucks.

Dedicated vCPU requires a "enable dedicated vCPU" service that is $2/hr (per region). It starts billing you as soon as you enable a dedicated vCPU. I had no idea this existed till I saw the charges. Max IOPS without paying

> similarly-specced EC2 will easily be 10x that cost. I actually tried this, it's closer to 200-300x. The number of premium add on fees that appear as you build a higher performing EC2 server is just stupid. It's not so bad if

Can't carry much in a Bugatti. It's a real problem if you build on a VPS as your base. I was asked to prep such a system for scale on AWS and choked on the pricing. So we settled for what they offer at reasonable pricing and if

Not sure about arm, different ISA is a pain. But the base configuration, for the money, is pretty sad compared to what you get else where. Scaling up is horrendously expensive compared to other providers. Why would you bother with AWS for

by pleoxy 3y ago
Which takes then off the list of providers you can do this with. They could have reasonable prices but they don't. You couple to AWS with your whole system architecture or you stay away.

Simple, sure, but AWS still charges insane rates. I can get 60k IOPS on a nanode at $5/mo rate. You actually get a random amount between 20k-60k depending on the type of machine they provision your nanode on. You want 60k IOPS on AWS?

So you hang onto your allocated strings in a record array and wonder why you run out of memory? You should be saving the strings to the database so the GC has something to reclaim. It doesn't work when you keep fields 5, 7, 8 around i

The demise of NoSQL is greatly exaggerated. It's past it's hype cycle, and that's fine. Many of us use it quietly, to do good work, and there is no need to crow to the world about what is happening under the hood.

The biggest problem is that map, filter make copies of the structure. That's an allocation, that means GC calls. You can make a similar function that changes the data in place and will be faster. But that comes with side effects whic

Adding friction to the use of information about your product seems like a disservice to the users/customers. By not having that information in the system at all will only degrade the answers. Not change who is asking.
