This architecture leverages microVMs for rapid scaling and high-density workloads. But does it work for GPU? The answer is no. You can look at the old 2019 GitHub issue and the comments to it to get the bigger picture of why it is so.

• dapr

  80 23,313 9.7 Go

  Dapr is a portable, event-driven, runtime for building distributed applications across cloud and edge.

  Build modern full-stack applications on AWS

  

Project mention: The 2024 Web Hosting Report | dev.to | 2024-02-20

We see some great results from using these in conjunction with frameworks such as SST or Serverless, and also some real spaghetti from people who organically proliferate 100’s of functions over time and lose track of how they relate to each other or how to update them safely across time and service. Buyer beware!

• cube.js

  86 17,174 9.9 Rust

  📊 Cube — The Semantic Layer for Building Data Applications

  

Project mention: MQL – Client and Server to query your DB in natural language | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-07

I should have clarified. There's a large number of apps that are:

1. taking info strictly from SQL (e.g. information_schema, query history)

2. taking a user input / question

3. writing SQL to answer that question

An app like this is what I call "text-to-sql". Totally agree a better system would pull in additional documentation (which is what we're doing), but I'd no longer consider it "text-to-sql". In our case, we're not even directly writing SQL, but rather generating semantic layer queries (i.e. https://cube.dev/).

> I think etcd is basically a k8s only project now

I hate etcd with the best of them, but etcd is used in a lot more places than just kubernetes:

https://github.com/apache/apisix/blob/master/docs/en/latest/...

https://github.com/traefik/traefik#:~:text=Etcd,

https://github.com/zalando/patroni#patroni-a-template-for-po...

https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/tree/0.0.26/etcd (this one shows up on HN quite a bit)

https://github.com/sorintlab/stolon#features

It's actually one of the major reasons I wouldn't touch those projects

Project mention: How to ditch Neon | dev.to | 2024-05-01

If you're reading this you probably got a really steep bill from Neon after finding yourself on their "Scale" plan. If you do want to stay with Neon but avoid surprise bills then go to the Plans page and choose what you actually want.

• functions-samples

  66 11,977 7.5 JavaScript

  Collection of sample apps showcasing popular use cases using Cloud Functions for Firebase

  

Project mention: I just realized how expensive Firebase is for Social Media Apps | /r/Firebase | 2023-06-20

I tried to make a reddit like app. I used both realtime-database and firestore as database. The billing of the two is different from each other. I used realtime-database for frequently updated data (like or upvote, downvote count for ex.) and firestore for more stable and large data (post, comment, community and user data..). While doing this, I only used database rules, I did not use Cloud functions. So, I suggest you use a hybrid database to minimize your bill as much as possible and you can do amazing things with database rules. Have a good works.

  23 11,273 2.1 JavaScript

  Serverless Examples – A collection of boilerplates and examples of serverless architectures built with the Serverless Framework on AWS Lambda, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Functions, and more. (by serverless)

  

Project mention: Deploy a Django application to AWS Lambda using Serverless Framework | dev.to | 2023-12-14

To create a new Serverless service you can run the sls create command and pass a template as a parameter. You can see a list of template examples in the official sls repository. As I write this post, there isn’t a Django template available in this list. Therefore, we are going to create a serverless.yml file in the root directory of our project and manually write the code we need in it.
