Azure Cosmos DB mentions (9)

• Blazor server app, deployment options

  If you are writing the code maybe consider learning Cosmos DB it’s pretty easy to work with and there is a free tier. Also in my experience it’s much faster than a SQL database. Source: 11 months ago

• Infrastructure as code (IaC) for Java-based apps on Azure

  Sometimes you don’t need an entire Java-based microservice. You can build serverless APIs with the help of Azure Functions. For example, Azure functions have a bunch of built-in connectors like Azure Event Hubs to process event-driven Java code and send the data to Azure Cosmos DB in real-time. FedEx and UBS projects are great examples of real-time, event-driven Java. I also recommend you to go through 👉 Code,... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Deploying a Mostly Serverless Website on GCP

  When debating the database solution for our application we were really seeking for a scalable serverless database that wouldn’t bill us for idle time. Options like AWS Athena, AWS Aurora Serverless, and Azure Cosmos DB immediately came to mind. We believed that GCP would have a comparable service, yet we could not find one. Even after consulting the GCP cloud service comparison documentation we were still unable... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Which DB to use for API published on Azure?

  If you are looking for one to start with; you can try Cosmos: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cosmos-db/. Source: about 2 years ago

• Basic Setup for Azure Cosmos DB and Example Node App

  I have had an opportunity to work on a project that uses Azure Cosmos DB with the MongDB API as the backend database. I wanted to spend a little more time on my own understanding how to perform basic setup and a simple set of CRUD operations from a Node application, as well as construct an easy-to-follow procedure for other developers. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• GitHub - neondatabase/neon: The serverless open source alternative to AWS Aurora Postgres - Written in Rust

  Y'know, this situation is why Firefox bounced off the names Phoenix and Firebird before settling. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Leaving MySQL

  Another big open source DB I'd like to hear about more often is Firebird (https://firebirdsql.org/) which was forked from the Interbase code released by Borland (don't remember how they were called at the time). Four choices of connection model (process-by-connection, thread-by-connection, some weird mix, and in-process), full ANSI SQL, runs on all major platforms, and uses single file databases. Seems to be the... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Any RBDMS that supports in-memory and multi-threaded writes?

  For C/C++ Firebird could be an option, although that isn't really "in memory" as it persists all data to disk. Source: about 3 years ago
