Thanks! In terms of backend engineering, I'd say one of the trickiest things is always depending deeply on a third party service or provider to be the backbone of the value you add…

Yes! Right now we have a PD integration that will allow us to receive your alerts, and once you bind them to an Allma Incident, manage the alerts for you as well!

Hey folks! I'm Sean, the CTO of Allma. Would love to chat about the product if folks have any questions!

So, specifically in the context of a distributed queue (which, if we're talking about using MS arch + queueing due to scale concerns, you really need some kind of distribution to t…

This is more of the intended audience (earlier startups or smaller groups of devs), but I could have done a better job spelling that out.

The accuracy of this statement is as depressing as it is apt.

Thanks for adding some historical context for me!

I didn't discuss queues because queues aren't intrinsically a part of a MS architecture. You certainly can do it that way, and there are lots of benefits, but queues (and if you're…

Hello all you nice folks on HN. Original author of the article here. A few things I'd like to add, since this is essentially what feedback I get every time this has made the rounds…

Hi, original author here! Quickly, on the "elementary" nature of the post, this was adapted from a lightning talk I gave, and so it was sort of designed to be a very quick introduc…

Elegant, simple, and idiomatic. The perfect solution for Go.

This is definitely one of the main takeaways that I wanted to get across.

Well said, thanks!

I do wish I had titled it better, as most people have (rightfully) dinged me on this one ;)

One of the downsides of the blog post was that I adapted it from a lightning talk, so it was meant to be a little content-light, but to put ideas in peoples minds around how to thi…

You have a good point in that in the early stages, any app is likely not to be a "monolith", but it's less about size/LOC and more about the design ethic of the architecture itself…

Author here - your ninja edit is one of the core premises of the entire post. Some other folks have addressed the scalability questions you raised, but i'd add - I am in no way adv…

I appreciate the feedback, but unfortunately I think you've made a bit of a leap in terms of what my point here was. It isn't that i'm saying "Don't build microservices", but rathe…

Hi, author here - thanks for taking the time read it. You're not wrong in that this article is meant to point out the pitfalls of the approach, and to advocate for understanding be…

Author here - Came to reply with basically what you just said. Thanks for giving it a read!

Well... Guess I need to rename https://github.com/StabbyCutyou/0db

They actually would let you increase that, but only up to a certain point and only if you specifically requested it. I don't see them mention the absolute ceiling being lifted, so …

I notice you're using interfaces to do your handlers, and (forgive me if i'm reading this wrong) casting those interfaces to a specific "type" of function before invoking them. Tha…
