In my experience (7+ years of using Clojure) this is caused by the misunderstanding of what Clojure actually is: it's a LISP designed for the JVM, you cannot escape the host and pr…

Same! Never bothered with the so-called HA setup after running a cluster for few months. Making all messages durable + backups of underlying storage are sufficient, while the do no…

I recommend reading this 3-part series on Mongo's marketing - it goes into a lot of detail why Mongo "won". https://www.nemil.com/mongo/1.html As a former RethinkDB user (we have m…

ECS can be simpler if you stick to the default and use something like copilot - it effectively turns your compose file into a cluster with all of the networking etc

We've came around full circle - I made this few years ago https://github.com/lukaszkorecki/workflowish

TIL, will check it out - thanks!

EnvKey user here - it looks exactly like EnvKey. Not sure what the underlying crypto primitives are - EnvKey relies on PGP/GPG style stuff and have a lot of documentation about it.…

AFAIK there's no RabbitMQ-compatible broker, unless you use AMQP 1.0 in RabbitMQ right now. Their AMQP 0.9 implementation has a lot of RMQ-specific stuff and there's no equivalent.…

One is fantastic but you have to be aware of it’s limitations - particularly around network connectivity, something that even OG MPC Live is better at. Of course if it’s not a fact…

Not quite: they acquired the consulting part of Plataformatec, the core Elixir folks are running a new venture: https://changelog.com/podcast/402

The closest thing you can get in irb, is to use Rails' `reload!` after making changes to your files. I don't remember if irb supports this kind of stuff out of the box, perhaps goo…

I'd disagree - my team migrated from running containers on VMs (managed via Ansible) to ECS + Fargate (managed by Terraform and a simple bash script). It wasn't a simple transition…

An application usually has one connection, and many channels. Our pattern is to dedicate one channel for all publishing and then N channels mapped to consumer threads. You don't ha…

C-r for interactive history search

Almost nobody uses refs in production code ;-)

I'm not sure to be honest, I've been working with Clojure for 5 years now, and the only "help" I get from the editor I get is "highlight matching pair". I never got used to automat…

Sounds like a bad idea, no? Last ting you want is whole cluster going down because Kafka is misbehaving

The document mentions using Raft for consensus and coordination - it's the same approach used by Etcd, Consul, Serf, RethinkDB and other systems. AFAIK it's easier to implement and…

It's a very fast Scheme implementation, compiles to C and has a pretty decent [library ecosystem]( http://eggs.call-cc.org/5/ ). I've used it to build service monitoring daemons an…

That's correct - being able to "rewind" a history of a topic (queue) is a powerful concept. But, Kafka is a bit harder to operate than RabbitMQ in my experience. (Somewhat related,…

Compojure - https://github.com/weavejester/compojure#usage is a very close equivalent of Sinatra. Ring (which most, if not all web libraries build on top of) is directly inspired b…
