Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Defcon: Meta's system for preventing overload with graceful feature degradation
Anyone interested in load shedding and graceful degradation with request prioritization should check out the Aperture OSS project.

Queues Don't Fix Overload
I agree that queues can problem especially when misconfigured. But some amount of queuing is necessary, to absorb short spikes in demand vs capacity. Also, queues can be helpful to re-order requests based on criticality which won't be possible with zero queue size - in which case we have to immediately drop a request or admit it without considering it's priority.
I think it is beneficial to re-think how we tune queues. Instead of setting a queue size, we should be tuning the max permissible latency in the queue which is what a request timeout actually is. That way, you stay within the acceptable response time SLA while keeping only the serve-able requests in the queue.
Aperture, an open-source load management platform took this approach. Each request specifies a timeout for which it is willing to stay in the queue. And weighted fair queuing scheduler then allocates the capacity (a request quota or max number of in-flight request) across requests based on the priority and tokens (request heaviness) of each request.

Would love to hear your thoughts on our approach!

Graceful Behavior at Capacity
Very interesting blog post! Our team has been working intensively in this area for the last couple of years - flow control, load shedding, controllability (PID control), and so on.
We have open-sourced our work at - https://github.com/fluxninja/aperture
We would love feedback from folks reading this blog post!
Disclaimer: I am one of the co-authors of the Aperture project. There are several interesting ideas we have built into this project and I will be happy to dive into the technical details as well.

Why Adaptive Rate Limiting Is a Game-Changer
It's a blog on an open-source project that precisely tells you how to implement adaptive rate limiting.

Show HN: Review GitHub PRs with AI/LLMs
At the time of writing, the first sample image on that page is this:
https://coderabbit.ai/assets/section-1-f9a48066.png
which recommends adding a "maxIterations" counter to the "for len(executedComponents) ..." loop here:
https://github.com/fluxninja/aperture/blob/26e00ea818c7c28da...
HOWEVER
- the review has failed to notice the logic using "numExecutedBefore" (around line 377) that already prevents the specific bug it is suggesting a fix for
- the suggested change decrements "maxIterations" inside the "for ... range circuit.components {" loop which means it isn't counting iterations, it's counting components
This kind of suggestion is particularly nasty because it's unlikely that the test suite populates enough components to hit "maxIterations" - so an inattentive reader could accept it, get a green build, and then deploy a production bug!

Release Radar · April 2024 Edition: Major updates from the open source community
It's like Prometheus, but for logs. Okay it's not really to do with the Norse or Greek gods, instead Loki is a horizontally-scalable, highly-available, multi-tenant log aggregation system inspired by the open source project Prometheus. Built by Grafana Labs, Loki is designed for ease of use. Instead of indexing the contents of the logs, Loki provides a set of labels for each log stream. The latest update includes query acceleration with Bloom filters, native OTel support, Helm charts, and more. Check out the changelog for all the major changes and deprecations.

On Implementation of Distributed Protocols
Distributed system administrators need mechanisms and tools for monitoring individual nodes in order to analyze the system and promptly detect anomalies. Developers also need effective mechanisms for analyzing, diagnosing issues, and identifying bugs in protocol implementations. Logging, tracing, and collecting metrics are common observability techniques to allow monitoring and obtaining diagnostic information from the system; most of the explored code bases use these techniques. OpenTelemetry and Prometheus are popular open-source monitoring solutions, which are used in many of the explored code bases.

Golang: out-of-box backpressure handling with gRPC, proven by a Grafana dashboard
Setting up monitoring for a system, especially one involving GRPC communication, provides crucial visibility into its operations. In this guide, we walked through the steps to instrument both a GRPC server and client with Prometheus metrics, exposed those metrics via an HTTP endpoint, and visualized them using Grafana. The Docker-Compose setup simplified the deployment of both Prometheus and Grafana, ensuring a streamlined process.
