• Design to Duty: How we make architecture decisions at Adyen
  dev.to | 2021-07-28

  As you now know, we do not want to achieve this by restricting payments of some merchants to certain machines, as this would mean the machines are no longer linearly scalable. The information needs to be available locally, so we eventually decided on integrating Cockroach, a distributed database, with our PALs.

• What is Cost-based Optimization?
  dev.to | 2021-06-02

  In CockroachDB, the cost is an abstract 64-bit floating-point scalar value.

• #30DaysofAppwrite : Appwrite’s building blocks
  dev.to | 2021-05-03

  Appwrite uses MariaDB as the default database for project collections, documents, and all other metadata. Appwrite is agnostic to the database you use under the hood and support for more databases like Postgres, CockroachDB, MySQL and MongoDB is currently under active development! 😊

• I am building a Serverless version of Redis - written in Rust
  reddit.com/r/rust | 2021-05-02

  For me, if you look back to when Redis has been designed - 11 years ago, it was before the Cloud was a thing. Since then, you have Cloud alternatives that are mostly proprietary. The idea of RedisLess is not competing against a product that is existing for 11 years but showing a new path of how we can build a system on top of an existing one. You can see RedisLess as experimentation. How to build Cloud-native databases by taking advantage of existing solutions? TiDB, Yugabyte, CockroachDB are great examples of being MySQL wire protocol compatible and providing a Cloud way of managing data.

  CockroachDB is written in Go. https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach

• Would you ever use CockroachDB?
  reddit.com/r/AskProgramming | 2021-04-20

  we are not talking about some consumer who walks into a store without a clue. Also if you have a problem with CockroachDBs name, their bug tracker is over there.

• Create and manage N customer databases from one backend?
  reddit.com/r/devops | 2021-04-01

  Seems this use case still has some limitations with cockroachdb https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/issues/28376

• Any postgres server library for golang?

  From looking around this is what I think it is : https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/tree/e6a0d23d516203bf5e8d1c8b3c3c26ddfaddc388/pkg/sql/pgwire may have more parts to it..

• Go Statement Considered Harmful
  news.ycombinator.com | 2021-03-19

  This is timely. Cockroach has recently decided to lint against the go statement. We also don’t like errgroup because its context propagation is implicit.

• My Ruby on Rails stack for side projects in 2021
  dev.to | 2021-03-01

  Use a relational database such as PostgreSQL or MySQL. I do not recommend using document databases such as MongoDB because there is really no reason for it in my opinion. PostgreSQL is plenty fast and you probably won't need things like horizontal scaling for a side project. You can of course try something fancy like FaunaDB, CockroachDB, or any of the many database flavors.
