Telepat: Real-Time, Open Source Data Sync

I was wondering though, looking at the stack, if some parts couldn't be substituted with "lighter" alternatives? I'm assuming couchbase is being used for the changes feed and since you can't do adhoc querying you need "elastic search" for that, however wouldn't it be possible to replace both with just rehinkdb? Anyway I'm just speculating here, I should probably dig into the code.

Thanks for sharing this and keep up the good work!

Update: seems you'll still need elastic search for rethinkdb full text search [0]

How do they make money?

1) Professional/Consulting services and support for paid users

2) Hosted version (SAAS)

3) Book deal

4) Paid client/server plugins for additional functionality

5) Get "aqui-hired"

6) Enterprise version that's more stable and battle tested

7) etc...

I think the creators are https://github.com/gabidobo and https://github.com/Mayhem93

I was searching for a good framework for an online booking system, and though one link and other stumbled upon this. I have't heard about it before, so I thought it would be nice to share it with HN; github repo seems to have a low involvement from anyone outside the creators https://github.com/telepat-io .

Just curious: How is this different from the MQTT ecosystem?

I don't like the fact that the Tux logo is linked to http://linux.com

Should be http://kernel.org as linux.com has a spammy feeling..

We're working on providing plugins for a wide range of components, so that you can switch couchbase, kafka or elastic for other, lighter products that you might have on your stack already
