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.

Beyond SQL: A relational database for modern applications
A new DB, with a new query language that's like "SQL done right"? This immediately reminded me of EdgeDB: https://edgedb.com/
Is there anyone here who knows enough about these two products to do a compare/contrast?
See also https://edgedb.com/ which is another relational database without sql
-
EdgeDB 3.0
The whole thing consists of these main parts:
1. SQL parser: https://github.com/edgedb/edgedb/tree/master/edb/pgsql/parse...

DuckDB 0.8.0
>relational no-sql
Do you mean something like edgeDB?[0]
Or do you mean some non-declarative language completely? I don't see the latter making much sense. The issue with SQL for me is the "natural language" which quickly loses all intended readabilty when you have SELECT col1, col2 FROM (SELECT * FROM ... WHERE 1=0 AND ... which is what edgeDB is trying to solve.

EdgeDB 2.0
That `sys::TransactionIsolation` doc is outdated, EdgeDB only supports the `Serializable` transaction isolation. See related discussion [1]
At this point EdgeDB supports Postgres HA passively, i.e. it will react to a failover event in your cluster via one of the documented mechanisms. Support for "active" cluster management is a planned feature too.
Finally, EdgeDB server itself is fully stateless and you can run multiple instances of it in front of the same Postgres cluster. Admittedly, we need to document this better.
Would really appreciate it if you could open issues in the main [1] repo and we'll figure it out. We're investing a ridiculous amount of time into our docs and want them to be the best possible.

GraphQL Is a Trap?
You have to do your own optimiser to avoid, for instance, the N+1 query problem. (Just Google that, plenty of explanations around.) Many GraphQL frameworks have a “naive” subquery implementation that performs N individual subqueries. You either have to override this for each parent/child pairing, or bolt something on the back to delay all the “SELECT * FROM tbl_subquery WHERE id = ?” operations and convert them into one “… WHERE id IN (…)”. Sounds like a great use of your time.
In the end you might think to yourself “why am I doing this, when my SQL database already has query optimisation?”. And it’s a fair question, you are onto it. Try one of those auto-GraphQL things instead. EdgeDB (https://edgedb.com) does it as we speak, runs atop Postgres. Save yourself the enormous effort if you’re only building a GraphQL API for a single RBDMS, and not as a façade for a cluster of microservices and databases and external requests.
Or just nod to your boss and go back to what being a backend developer has always meant: laboriously building by hand completely ad hoc JSON versions of SQL RBDMS schemas, each terribly unhappy in its own way. In no way does doing it manually but presenting GraphQL deviate from this Sisyphean tradition.
I read in the article that NOT having GraphQL exactly match your DB schema is a best practice. My response is “did a backend developer write this?”

How we sharded our test suite for 10x faster runs on GitHub Actions
Same idea, yeah. Unfortunately, in our case we couldn't use pytest due to complicated test setup, so we used a customized unittest runner instead.

GraphQL is now available on Supabase
EdgeDB [1] has indeed a rich GraphQL layer, but it's a very different project.
While it also builds on top of Postgres, EdgeDB replaces the entire relational database front-end. EdgeDB features a SQL replacement language called EdgeQL (analytical capabilities of SQL married with deep-fetching in GraphQL), a higher-level data model (tables -> object types), integrated migrations engine, a custom protocol with great performance & great client APIs, and many other things. Read more here [2].
