Kong has been working without problems in our (small-scale) setup since we introduced it a few months back. Personally not too fond of the tooling to configure apis and consumers/credentials though. Is there a better way to manage thes

I have been playing with Dokku lately. I ran into some problems with the Dockerfile mode (creates tags like myapp:latest but then tries to start dokku/myapp:latest) and the CLI not parsing arguments correctly (had to put extra " c

I missed the announcement of cross-account access. This seems great, thanks! STUPS looks interesting. What scares me a bit about these suites that provide many abstractions on top of AWS is how they work in mixed environments where some res

I can see how having separate AWS accounts for dev/stage/prod makes things easier. Such as not having to think about name conflicts on ECS clusters, SQS queues, roles and whatnot. We use a single AWS account with multiple IAM user

The application I work on most of the time is largely monolithic and usually I have no problems with that. Some parts have been extracted to their own codebases and are deployed separately because of performance reasons. We also separated t

Came here to mention this. Aside from now()/transaction_timestamp() and clock_timestamp() there's also statement_timestamp() that returns the start time of the current statement.

Seeing the same thing. Got back from vacation an hour ago, probably related. :)

For those of you reading this that are interested in getting on InfluxDB 0.9. If you intend to use authentication and have a somewhat high request rate, I advise you to wait until the fixes related to #3102 ( https://github.com&#x

Out of curiosity, are there reasons why this shouldn't be solved at the browser or even OS level? The only reason I can think of is that solutions at the app level makes it possible for people to refer to a blue line, red bar, and what

As a long time Django user (first project on 1.1) I want to thank for a great framework and your wonderful release approach! I often try out new new web dev platforms and frameworks but tend to rewrite projects that get too serious or large

Very nice, congrats on the release! Had it up and running and our Grafana 1.x dashboards imported in about 15min. I was intrigued reading about the plans for alert support. Any pointers on where to start looking for somebody that may want t

We have used RethinkDB in production for a handful of months now. 100M docs, 250 GB data spread out on two servers. We added it to the mix because it got increasingly difficult to tune SQL queries involved in building API responses, especia

Django is much larger with its ORM, template system, admin site, and so on. Feature-wise it seems close to Flask. I suspect that Flask is more opinionated than Falcon: it requires the Jinja2 template library and your project may end up with

It's not like Django + TastyPie just because it uses OO. If you are building a service with two or three endpoints, that combo is overkill. “You wanted a banana but what you got was a gorilla holding the banana and the entire jungle.”

Well, AWS CLI is built on botocore. I've used boto sinne 2012 and never got the feeling it's a second class citizen. Mitch's leaving Amazon didn't slow things down. Nowadays when new services are released there is usuall

My understanding of Amazon's new container service is that it lets users spawn a bunch of instances that the service manages (job scheduling and so on). This is not maximizing tenants per server nor maximizing revenue per server, IMO,

"Lock-in through the range of services" is key. You can go all-in on AWS and use RDS, Directory Service, EMR and still be able to move off AWS and use the open source systems beneath. Granted, there are services like S3 that are p

I deployed a three node RethinkDB cluster the other day. The process was very smooth and I love the web UI. If operating the cluster proves to be as simple, they have managed to remove so many pains that you need to deal with with other ven
