Managed databases are quite good. RDS is very mature and does a very good job with fail over, backups and is very easy to setup. I don't want to manage anything that needs to be clustered. Technologies like that often need trained engi

Pretty much this. How could one whale pump so much money into the market? It was a societal thing more so than an individual person. People were speculating like crazy to the point where you had grandmas giving investment advice on this new

Is this the beginning of the end of the climate change debate? Will these melting permafrosts release an uncontrollable amount of methane into the atmosphere, further raising the average temperatures across the globe? Only time will tell...

I wonder how long it will take for conspiracy comments like these to pass. Anyone know how long it took for people to trust Lets Encrypt? Or did we all forget (myself included) of the times when people talked about the issue of trusting som

My thoughts exactly. It's bait article for those looking to get fired up about something and read far too into it.

I'm amazed this is a news article and that people are drawing any kind of political opinions, motivations or messages.

Brilliant summary on the state of invention at Apple. I think Steve really did give them the edge with design and innovation. Right now there's just no leadership with that kind of bold intent of any one thing in particular. Apple have

Indeed - but there are other ways to make money than to sell of your personal information to the highest advertising bidder.

I really don't see this as a problem of Cloudflare. End users switching to Cloudflare's DNS endpoint are doing so because they feel the DNS provider is both faster and more secure. They rightly made the decision NOT to pass on the

Kafka, Kinesis, Cloudwatch events - any light message bus that can decouple a HTTP POST/PUT method that might have a write lock downstream.

Containers will be around for at least another 5 years. If you look at where AWS makes most of their money, it's selling EC2 hardware.

I'd say modern API deployments are either containerised or go the serverless route. On one hand you have a docker image with your source code/static binary baked in. The other you have your source code/binary encapsulated in

I disagree with all the comments posted so far. This should be a perfect use case for lambda, not "oh you're API is receiving more than 10M req/day? Use Elastic Beanstalk instead with an EC2 instance and ELB". This kind

I think it's good Firefox are leading the way on DoH. The ability to chose which DNS provider you query will be next on the feature list for Firefox I imagine. Cloudflare have the same mindset to do something about the vulnerability of

It's not an economic move, it's a political one. Trump needs votes from agricultural states like Ohio which would be severely impacted by these export cuts.

Not wrong on this. We use gRPC in our tech stack but some pods handle far more connections than others due to the multiplexing/reuse of existing connections. Sadly Istio/Envoy solutions are in our backlog for now. We can't fa

It's due to the number of indicies/indexes stored from our various data sources. Yours and another poster's comments are interesting so we might look at ways we can reduce the shard count given the new info on overhead.

Definitely true - their instant deploys are very impressive from an operations point of view. Small changes only take a few minutes to roll out on Akamai's network. Another commenter talked about Fastly's POP count. Akamai has far
