Congrats on the launch! You may be under-selling LittleHorse a bit (here and even in the README). Few things I find cool about it: - How easy it makes writing human-in-loop workflo…

When you run ALTER TABLE test DROP COLUMN c Postgres doesn't actually go and remove the column from every row in the table. This can lead to counter intuitive behaviors like runnin…

There are quite a few authentication services and libraries out there, but the vast majority treats tenants / organizations as an afterthought - in case of Firebase, tenants are li…

This is a great question. At this point, all transactions go through a single transaction coordinator that uses 2PC to coordinate all transactions. This makes many aspects of coord…

We are planning to open source it soon. Last few cleanups :)

In case you are wondering why we don't have templates for your favorite language or framework - we are not yet done. We are planning to keep adding many more. You can also request …

hey :) I also like Rails acts_as_tenant. We searched far and wide for something similar for JS ecosystem and so far, didn't find anything. We build our JS SDK by wrapping Knex (nic…

Indeed! How did you guess?

We don't have per-tenant schema right now, but we have started designing multi-version experience and it doesn't seem too far from here. Nile is different from DB per tenant in a s…
