engineering VS Hasura

Slim.AI | Fullstack and Backend Engineers | REMOTE, international or Seattle/Bellevue/WA | Full-time | Golang, Node.js, Vue.js/Nuxt.js

I'm the founder and CTO at Slim.AI. We are a well funded seed stage startup (9M+) in the developer tooling space. Our mission is to simplify and accelerate the containerized app delivery (it's too hard, too complicated and with too much manual work). We are about to transition to the next phase and we are expanding our engineering team.

Our engineering team is the innovation engine for our product because we are building a solution to solve our own problems creating and running containerized cloud-native applications.

We use Golang, Node.js Serverless/Lambda and containers. We have frontend, backend and fullstack roles ( https://github.com/slim-ai/engineering ).

Our engineering principles:

* We use what we build.

We are a well funded seed stage startup (9M+) in the developer tooling space on a mission to redefine how DevOps is done for containerized apps (it's too hard, too complicated and with too much manual work). We are about to transition to the next phase and we are expanding our engineering team.

Our engineering team is the innovation engine for our product because we are building a solution to solve our own problems creating and running containerized cloud-native applications.

We use Golang, Node.js Serverless/Lambda and containers. Take a look at the backend ( https://github.com/slim-ai/engineering/blob/master/roles/bac... ) and fullstack ( https://github.com/slim-ai/engineering/blob/master/roles/ful... ) roles and our engineering principles to see if the role and how we do engineering looks interesting to you ( https://github.com/slim-ai/engineering#engineering-principle... ).

P.S.

And take a look at DockerSlim ( https://github.com/docker-slim/docker-slim ) if you are interested in working on the open source project that powers our SaaS.

Do you enjoy working with lots of different applications stacks? Do you like helping others? Do you want to build lots of different applications? Are you interested in contributing to open source?

We are a funded seed stage startup in the developer tooling and DevOps space empowering developers to build and run their cloud-native applications. The current product is focusing on containers and the friction around them.

We are building a brand new engineering team. We are developer friendly, low on process with no mind-numbing bureaucracy or micromanagement. We are looking for people who'll be excited to be a part of the engineering team in an early stage startup during its inception phase building modern cloud-native applications the right way.

> 2. ORMs do not hide SQL nastiness.

This is certainly true!

I mean: ORMs are now well known to "make the easy queries slightly more easy, while making intermediate queries really hard and complex queries impossible".

I think the are of ORMs is over. It simply did not deliver.

If a book on SQL is --say-- 100 pages, a book on Hibernate is 400 pages. So much to learn just to make the easy queries slightly easier to type? Just not worth it.

I prefer jooq any day over ORMs. And dont get me started over what tools like Hasuna have to offer.

There are also some languages (forgot the names) that are SQL-done-right. Select in the back, more type safe, more logic, more in the same steps as the query gets executed. These need to be adopted by PG and MySQL and we're good to go. (IMHO)

Another strategy is to model access control declaratively and enforce it in the application layer. ZenStack (built above Prisma ORM) and Hasura are good examples of this approach. The following code shows how access policies are defined with ZenStack and how a secured CRUD API can be derived automatically.

Today, this ecosystem is going strong with new providers like Hasura, AppWrite and Supabase powering millions of projects. There are a few reasons people choose this style of hosting, especially if they are more comfortable with frontend development. BaaS lets them set up a database in a secure way, expose some business logic on top of the data, and connect via a dev-friendly SDK from their app or website code to save data easily. These modern tools build a blend of managed database with curated plugins such as authentication, great admin dashboards, and function as a service type capability - all in one package, and often offered as a integrated hosted service.

Hi! If you’ve ever thought about something like using GraphQL for something like this.. You might like Hasura. (Obligatory I work for Hasura)

We’ve got an OpenAPI import and you can setup cron-jobs or one-off jobs and do things like load in headers from the environment variables to pass through. There isn’t currently an easy journey for chaining multiple calls together without writing any code at all, but you can wrap pretty much any API endpoint via OpenAPI import or a custom action, and you can even make minor edits to things like the API contract format to change aliases/naming.

Our goal is to join all the things, databases and API’s. Most people know us for instant GraphQL API’s that give you CRUD on your database, but we also wrap APIs.

Not sure if something like this would fit your use-case and do check out some of the other things mentioned, but depending what you are trying to do I think Hasura might potentially work.

Nested Mutation - 113 thumbs up, and still open since 2019... another case of not listening to the users?

Hasura is an open-source real-time GraphQL API server with a strong authorization layer on your database. You can subscribe to database events via webhooks. It can combine multiple API servers into one unified graphQL API. Hasura is a great tool to build any CRUD GraphQL API. Hasura does not have any authentication mechanisms; e.g., you need an auth server to handle sign-up and sign-in.
