Production-ready NestJS + Angular SaaS boilerplate with auth, Stripe payments, multi-tenancy,Docker, and Terraform. Free lite version on GitHub.
Apache Cassandra
CloudrixCloudrix's answer:
Enterprise developers and agencies building B2B SaaS products with NestJS and Angular. Specifically: 1) Solo founder who want to launch an MVP in days instead of months. 2) Dev agencies starting client projects who need a production-ready foundation to bill for features, not setup. 3) Enterprise teams at companies already using Angular (BMW, Siemens, ING, Barclays) who need an internal tool or SaaS product fast. 4) Backend engineers who know NestJS but want a complete full-stack solution without learning a new frontend framework.
Cloudrix's answer:
SaaS Starter is the only production-ready NestJS + Angular SaaS boilerplate with Docker, AWS Terraform, BullMQ, CI/CD, audit logging, and API key management included. There are 50+ Next.js boilerplates but only 2 for NestJS + Angular ,and neither includes infrastructure or deployment. We fill that gap with 130+ source files, 55+ tests, and everything from auth to AWS in one package.
Cloudrix's answer:
Three reasons: 1) Stack โ if your team uses NestJS + Angular (the dominant enterprise stack), no competitor supports it. ShipFast, Supastarter, and MakerKit are all React/Next.js. 2) Completeness โ we include Docker Compose, Terraform for AWS, GitHub Actions CI/CD, audit logging, API keys, and HMAC signing. No competitor offers infrastructure at any price. 3) Value โ $249 one-time vs competitors charging $299-$599 or monthly subscriptions. You save 2-6 weeks of setup ($4K-$16K in developer time) for a fraction of the cost.
Cloudrix's answer:
After building 4 SaaS products from scratch, I kept spending the first 2-3 months on the same things every time. authentication, Stripe billing, user management, admin panel, Docker setup, deployment pipelines. The actual product features didn't start until month 3. When I looked for a boilerplate to skip this, I found 50+ options for React and Next.js but almost nothing for NestJS + Angular โ the stack I use every day in production. So I packaged everything I'd built into a clean, tested, documented starter kit. Now other developers can start building their actual product n day one instead of month three.
Cloudrix's answer:
NestJS 11 (backend framework), Angular 21 (frontend with standalone components and signals), TypeScript 5.9 (end-to-end type safety), TypeORM with PostgreSQL (database), Redis (caching and job queues), BullMQ (background job processing), Stripe (payments and subscriptions), Resend (transactional emails), Passport.js (authentication strategies), Docker Compose (local development), Terraform (AWS infrastructure โ ECS, RDS, ElastiCache, S3, CloudFront), GitHub Actions (CI/CD pipelines), Tailwind CSS 4 (styling with dark mode), Nx (monorepo management), and Sharp (image processing).
Cloudrix's answer:
We launched recently so we're building our customer base. Early adopters include freelance developers on Upwork delivering client SaaS projects faster, small agencies in Europe using it as their standard project foundation, and startup founders who shipped their MVPs in under 2 weeks instead of 3 months. We also have a growing open-source community around the free Lite version on GitHub. As a new product, we're focused on earning trust through code quality, documentation, and fast support rather than dropping big names.
Based on our record, Apache Cassandra seems to be more popular. It has been mentiond 45 times since March 2021.

When IoTDB was initiated in 2011, almost all influential distributed systems and databases were built in Java or on the JVMโsuch as Hadoop, HBase, Spark (Scala on JVM), Cassandra, Kafka, and Flink. To integrate deeply with the big data ecosystem, choosing Java was a natural decision. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
In fact, even in the absence of these commercial databases, users can effortlessly install PostgreSQL and leverage its built-in pgvector functionality for vector search. PostgreSQL stands as the benchmark in the realm of open-source databases, offering comprehensive support across various domains of database management. It excels in transaction processing (e.g., CockroachDB), online analytics (e.g., DuckDB),... - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago
All messages are persisted durably for two minutes, but Pub/Sub channels can be configured to persist messages for longer periods of time using the persisted messages feature. Persisted messages are additionally written to Cassandra. Multiple copies of the message are stored in a quorum of globally-distributed Cassandra nodes. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
Cassandra is a highly scalable, distributed NoSQL database designed to handle large amounts of data across many commodity servers without a single point of failure. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
Distributed storage Distributed storage systems like Cassandra, DynamoDB, and Voldemort also use consistent hashing. In these systems, data is partitioned across many servers. Consistent hashing is used to map data to the servers that store the data. When new servers are added or removed, consistent hashing minimizes the amount of data that needs to be remapped to different servers. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
