As an aside - we are evaluating different streaming engines to power data projections for Prisma.io. Excited to see support for Debezium coming in v0.4.0. Would be interesting to somehow make Arroyo run the Nexmark benchmark so we can clear

This is a really exciting project! I recently learned about https://github.com/vmware/database-stream-processor which builds on a new theoretical foundation and claims to be 9x faster than Flink. It is also written in

The big concern around fishing gear is that it is specifically designed to catch marine life, so when it is lost or deliberately discarded in the ocean, it continues to kill for years for no reason at all. The movie Seaspiracy makes this po

I am excited to share a map with my group of friends going skiing next winter. I used to create a Notion doc with manually annotated screenshots from google maps, much like you. But this feels way better.

FDB supports atomic operations that you can use to implement at least some of this very easily in a way that avoids the extra round trip and conflicts: https://apple.github.io/foundationdb/developer-guide.html#at...

Really excited to see this launch! We use Axiom at Prisma for various things and love it. Happy to answer questions if anybody is interested. Either here or on email.

The Vanmoof bikes have automatic shifters. I don’t like them because they are unpredictable, and you feel the difference. It’s jarring. The Cowboy is single speed, which works pretty well because of the motor. That’s my preferred configurat

European ebikes are also limited to a 250w motor. They must need much more to make this system work, so probably can’t be classified that way.

Most of us moved on to better terminology 4+ years ago. The only ones derailing conversations are grumps like yourself who refuse to get with the program. Why is this so important to you?

Prisma won't work with D1 out of the box. The primary limitations are: - SQLite is traditionally embedded in an application, so Prisma interacts with it by mounting a file. Workers does not have a local filesystem, and D1 is exposed ov

Migrations have gotten better recently, but there are still cases where you need to follow the 12 steps very carefully: https://www.sqlite.org/lang_altertable.html#otheralter Prisma Migrate can automatically generate these

The year Germany reaches ~100% renewable energy for electricity, will also be the year they install the most renewable capacity in history. It is very unlikely that the year after will see 0 renewable capacity installed. Instead, prices wil

This is factually incorrect. The winter issue in Texas was almost exclusively lack of winterization of thermal plants as well as a market setup that was unable to predict and react to the weather. Wind generated more electricity during the

Really cool project! I like this new trend of building SaaS products as open source, and still delivering a hosted free tier. https://cal.com/ is another example of this. And super proud that both are using Prisma!

This is really cool! We (Prisma) would love to support this project in any way we can. You can find my email in bio if you are interested in a call :-)

Hi Alex! Do you already have companies using this in production or maybe evaluating it? What language do you see most demand for?

For anybody interested in more examples, you can take a look at the Prisma VS Code extension. It was originally written 100% in TypeScript, but as most of our tooling is in Rust, we have started to move pieces over to Rust via wasm: https:

This is really cool! Can Haystack be used to index structured data, or just text? Is it required to use elastic as the backend, or can you use a simpler file-based or in-memory backend?

Prisma will launch a data proxy, as well as support for cockroachdb and Cloudflare workers early next year.

PlanetScale is the serverless relational database we have been waiting for all this time. It's truly excellent, and being based on the same tech that runs youtube, we know it will scale well.

Many prisma.io users tell us that they use prisma to implement complex business logic and then stitch it all together in hasura which exposes the final graphql API. So it might even be feasible to use Hasura for more complex applications. I

I have been using the beta version of PlanetScale for a while, and it is extremely cool. It's using the mature technology that powers Youtube to provide a developer experience for databases similar to what Vercel and Netlify provide fo

Prisma does not use a class hierarchy that are mapped directly to tables. Instead we take advantage of structural typing to give you a very smooth developer experience that is faithful to the relational model.

Thank you! SchemaHero looks super interesting. I'll check with the team to make sure they take a look. Introducing a Kubernetes operator is pretty ambitious.
