influxdb_iox VS cockroach

Watch out for the AGPL minio <https://github.com/metrico/iox-community/blob/155a14bb5e8e32...> the almost certainly AGPL grafana <https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/v10.1.1/LICENSE> and always eye anyone who uses :latest images with healthy suspicion

That said, influx_iox itself appears to be Apache 2 (and/or MIT?) https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb_iox/blob/main/LICENSE...

have you looked at https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb_iox ? that's where the development for the new version is done.

As I understand, InfluxDB 3 is just a re-branding of InfluxDB IOx. Then its' performance can be not very good comparing to Prometheus-like systems.

InfluxDB iox

Don't know how much is open or closed, but they were doing some development in the open: https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb_iox

Just want to say congratulations to the team!

2 years and 9,500+ commits is a hell of a feat.

Already is: https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb_iox Just still a work in progress.

It looks like this crate is the workaround for that. But there's a PR on SQLX opened a couple days ago that will fix the issue.

You should check out polars, datafusion, influxdb iox and databend, all written in native Rust and powered by the Apache Arrow format. Polars in particular is pretty dam fast and has bindings for Python.

CockroachDB is an open source distributed SQL database designed for scalability and resilience. While it offers SQL databases, CockroachDB is also compatible with PostgreSQL.

cockroachdb might be close: https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach

CockroachDB - SQL

For example, when you create a serverless postgres database with a platform like CockroachDB or Neon, you effectively get a connection string with a strong password. Anyone can connect to your database from anywhere so long as they have the right connection string. There are no security settings in these services to change this behavior.

> Yes you can on the android emulator. The biggest issue is compu arch in that case.

I can also download VirtualBox and run all Windows programs, that would mean that all Windows apps are Linux apps?

> Yes you can for the most part

You can't statically link glibc: https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/issues/3392

glibc can break stuff: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2022/08/valve-dev-understandab...

I had binaries break because the newer version if openssl was put under a slightly different name.

Also, worth noting, if you're already using PostgreSQL (or plan to) you might want to take a look at https://www.cockroachlabs.com/ they have a free tier too and CockroachDB has a PostgreSQL interface.

I know that some projects like cockroach use custom build tools like bazel. But we actually really like to use to be able to build our projects simply with the great go toolchain and don't really aim to dive deep into custom build solutions.

CockroachDB is designed to be globally distributed. It has to handle causality when resolving collisions. It has to account for having a write operation to arrive after another and still have time priority because it was sent out a few milliseconds earlier.

Cockroachdb created a go runtime patch which measures the Grunning time of a goroutine: https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/pull/82356. It doesn't entirely solve the problem though.

Our entire backend is written in Go. We've built a platform that allows other companies to offer automatic data syncing to their customers' data warehouses. Go works great for building distributed systems like this (see K8s). We're not the only ones in the space building data intensive applications with Go. Pachyderm, Pinecone, Cockroach Labs and are all also doing it. We've been quite happy with how Go has worked for us.
