svix-webhooks VS fib

That's exactly why we built Svix[1]. Building webhooks services, even with amazing tools like FastAPI, Celery and Redis is still a big pain. So we just built a product to solve it.

Hatchet looks cool nonetheless. Queues are a pain for many other use-cases too.

Obviously Deno have vested interest it (and so do I as the founder of Svix[1]), but my take is that webhooks are great, though there are alternatives that could be better or complementary depending on the situation.

At Svix we also support running JS instead of sending webhooks (using Deno!), and it is very useful, but there are many limitations with this approach, and in general oftentimes people just want the data passed to their systems and deal with it there. Not write a bit of JS to do something ad-hoc.

So in short, like always with software engineering: "it depends" and there are tradeoffs to each approach.

Svix - Webhooks as a Service. Send up to 50,000 messages/month for free.

We opted for a more manual approach, we have a ctx!() macro[1] we use for wrapping errors we want to enrich thay we use like this[2]: ctx!(some_fallible_fund(foo))?

I wodner if anyone is doing anything better? The nice thing is that we have relevant fields in our error type, so we get a full backtrace out if it.

This is what we do at Svix: https://docs.svix.com/receiving/source-ips

I've seen other companies (e.g. Stripe) also offer it via JSON, but I personally think it's not that important to provide it in a machine readable format if you don't plan on changing it; which you shouldn't as it'll break integrations. You should only add new IPs that can only be allocated to new customers.

P.S, if you'd like to start sending webhooks, you should probably check out Svix: https://www.svix.com

If I understand you, you just want some queue system, like kafka.But if you want a whole app who handle all your webhooks usage you can see : https://github.com/svix/svix-webhooks/

I've typically found rust to be about 100x faster than Python for the projects I've ported. This is consistent with https://github.com/drujensen/fib.

Here is a similar benchmark but includes compile times. https://github.com/drujensen/fib

How? Do you mean how do I know it's slow? Because it takes longer to run.

Write a typical computation such as Fibonacci in Java and Erlang/Elixir and compare. Fortunately someone has already done this.

Elixir is 3x slower than C and 2x slower than Java for this single thread example.

Apparently this upsets people for me to point this out. However, I did not say that Elixir was slow in general or a bad choice. It's an excellent choice for problems which suit parallelization or which require reliable, consistent performance.

Since the parent poster had commented that adding this multi-module dispatch would not be performant, I merely pointed out that the single thread peformance was already slow (as in, why worry too much about the performance cost of the multi dispatch suggestion).

Is there some advantage over repos that also show the results ?
