  • Any FS2 + Kafka github projects for reference?

  • Need the advice to choose: FS2 vs ZIO-streams

    If you only need statless transformations, I guess that fs2, zio-streams, and alpakka kafka are good solutions, and it's just a matter of personal preference. But zio and fs2 are definitely lightwheight when you compare it with akka streams. I see a lot of comments against ZIO streams that are not supported by the facts, since https://github.com/zio/zio-kafka has more contributors than https://github.com/fd4s/fs2-kafka. Here are some materials if you want to learn more about zio-kafka: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GECv1ONieLw https://scalac.io/blog/streaming-microservices-with-zio-and-kafka/

    The major performance issue with Skunk is tracked here. tl;dr prepared statements currently take a horrifying number of network round-trips to the database. I'm sympathetic to Rob's "what you see is what you get" priorities for Skunk. But I'm glad to see an outline of a plan that sounds like it would satisfy those objectives without being so, for lack of a better term, naïve in their pursuit.
  • Pleasant to use Scala libraries

    The same creator is working on skunk, which is very exciting. Only works for Postgres though.
  • Zio / Zionomicon : is it worth it ?

    The libraries doobie and skunk are more closely associated with cats. They both use cats-effect and fs2 for implementing database connectiona and input-output operations. The doobie library is a wrapper on JDBC, and as such is compatible with many DBMS, such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, H2, Oracle... Whereas skunk is specific to PostgreSQL, and is based on using the server protocol of that database.
