Cloud Storage: blog storage for static assets and media files

Preevy includes built-in support for saving profiles on AWS S3 and Google Cloud Storage. You can also store the profile on the local filesystem and copy it manually before running Preevy - we won't show this method here.

Google Cloud Storage{:target="_blank"} is a globally distributed object storage service offered by Google Cloud Platform. They provide trustworthy and scalable databases for storing large amounts of blob data. They also provide a way to optimize cost and performance with different storage classes and pricing options.

Also, in terms of packing a pre-trained model you will probably want to puts weights, biases etc into S3 or similar object storage (https://cloud.google.com/storage etc) and load it on application start

An object storage system (e.g. Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Platform Cloud Storage, etc.) makes it easy and simple to save large amounts of historical data and retrieve it for future use.

ToolJet allows you to build applications that use relational and non-relational databases, REST APIs, and cloud storage like Google Cloud Storage, AWS S3, and Minio. It is an excellent development tool helping individuals, developers, and businesses create and ship products faster.

Google Cloud Storage is a flexible, scalable, and cost-effective option for hosting a static website. It offers features like custom domains and SSL certificates, and it's easy to use. However, it can be more expensive than some other options for high-traffic websites.

There are a few ways to handle this depending on your client's preferences. If your client still wants to own the data, we support exporting to Object Storage systems like S3, GCS, R2, etc. This will keep the data out of their production systems but allow them to query it on demand.

Of course, the storage layer is the place where the data is stored. Because the amount of data to be stored is huge, we can not use HDD or SSD data storages, we need something cheaper. In this case we will be talking about AWS S3 because we are working with Amazon Web Services. For Azure, you could use Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2. If you are working with Google Cloud, you could use Google Cloud Storage. It does not matter what storage you use as long as it is cheap and can store a huge amount of data.

Several message brokers, such as NATS and database queues, are not supported by OpenTelemetry (OTel) SDKs. This article will guide you on how to use context propagation explicitly with these message queues.

> An Introduction to NATS - The first screencast

I guess I don't need to know what it is

During our interview, we referred to NATS quite a few times! If you want to learn more about it, Sebastian suggests this tutorial series.

Pueue dumps the state of the queue to the disk as JSON every time the state changes, so when you have a lot of queued jobs this results in considerable disk io. I actually changed it to compress the state file via zstd which helped quite a bit but then eventually just moved on to running NATS [1] locally.

Imagine you have an AI-powered personal alerting chat assistant that interacts using up-to-date data. Whether it's a big move in the stock market that affects your investments, any significant change on your shared SharePoint documents, or discounts on Amazon you were waiting for, the application is designed to keep you informed and alert you about any significant changes based on the criteria you set in advance using your natural language. In this post, we will learn how to build a full-stack event-driven weather alert chat application in Python using pretty cool tools: Streamlit, NATS, and OpenAI. The app can collect real-time weather information, understand your criteria for alerts using AI, and deliver these alerts to the user interface.

Why wasn't NATS[1] used ?

Written in Go, single-binary deployment... there's a lot to love about NATS !

require nats.io

About cost, see [1]. Also, S3 prices have been increasing and there's been a bunch of alternative offers for object store from other companies. I think people in here (HN) comment often about increasing costs of AWS offerings.

Distributed systems and consensus are inherently hard problem, but there are a lot of implementations that you can study (like Etcd that you mention, or NATS [2], which I've been playing with and looks super cool so far :-p) if you want to understand the internals, on top of many books and papers released.

Again, I never said it was "easy" to build distributed systems, I just don't think there's any esoteric knowledge to what S3 provides.

I am in a project were nats.io is used. Someone thought, it would be a great idea to link data in an event with data in a response using the response channel name.
