Re: Show HN: Hasura – A Postgres BaaS and Kubernetes PaaS on Your Own Infrastructure
#2We built Hasura over the last few years to help us build products fast. We didn't know what it would look like when we started, but we've ended up with something like a Parse + Heroku but on your own infra so that you can mess around with the internals when required.
Key features:
1. Data APIs on a Postgres database
2. Deploy with git-push, or any docker image
3. Expose HTTP services on the API gateway over subdomains/paths
4. Automatic LetsEncrypt SSL cert generation for exposed http services
5. SSH service to get tunnelled access to TCP services on your cluster
6. Auth middleware built into the API gateway, so that upstream services don't have to resolve sessions
7. Out of the box auth APIs for password, email, recaptcha, social login. mobile-OTP stuff

This looks really cool, going to check it out this weekend. Thanks!

I like that you took time to consider ACLs out of the box, that's something that most general-purpose tools leave too much to the developer, despite them being crucial for every app

Interesting, a couple quick questions:
* for the host-your-own version are there any HA features for Postgres?
* what language is it written in? GitHub link?

#6It would be great if the events info have links to the events. I am based out off Chennai and use Kubernetes in production and would like to hear more about what you guys do at Hasura.
Edit - realized that only the IIT talk wasn't a link. On mobile.

Not right now. This is definitely on our roadmap though.

It's mostly in Haskell, with smatterings of Python. Planning to open source it soon!

This seems like working on a similar space as loopback.io, is this correct? if not, how would you compare the two?
I ask because I'm currently using LB for a project and while I actually like it a lot I always like to be aware of alternatives and similar tools that I might need in the future.

I like the cartoons too! Who drew them?

Fun fact: hasura in Greek stands for "loss/ lost".
