Nice... it's cool to see how different companies are putting together best fit solutions. I'm also glad that they at least started out with off the shelf apps instead of jumping to something like a bespoke solution early on. Quickwit[1] looks interesting, found via Tantivity reference. Kind of like ES w/ Lucene. 1. https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

Https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit to_tsvector in PG never worked well for my use cases SELECT * FROM dump WHERE to_tsvector('english'::regconfig, hh_fullname) @@ to_tsquery('english'::regconfig, 'query'); Wish them to succeed. Will automatically upvote any post Tantivy as keyword. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

We tested S3 Express for our search engine quickwit[0] a couple of weeks ago. While this was really satisfying on the performance side, we were a bit disappointed by the price, and I mostly agree with the article on this matter. I can see some very specific use cases where the pricing should be OK but currently, I would say most of our users should just stay on the classic S3 and add some local SSD caching if they... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

- Another nice comment seen on HN « it seems to be very easy to run, not very IO intensive, and running fine on a single node with modest hardware with >2 billion log rows. It has a really cool dynamic schema feature too.» [9] Fun fact: at least 4 users are using Garage[10] as the object storage, this OSS project looks really promising and made the HN front page a few months ago[11], we really cherish the OSS for... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

5. No inbound ports, no CA signatures (WELL, that's not strictly true*!) You still get central control, but failure modes are local instead of “everyone is locked out right now.” That’s basically what we do at Userify (https://userify.com). Not as “elegant” as certs, but it doesn’t wake you up at 2am. * (Ok, so it's not strictly true because we use the built-in cert store in the instance for https and then that... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Not to shill too hard, but this is basically the problem Userify was built to solve ~15 years ago: keeping SSH authorized_keys in sync automatically across fleets. https://userify.com. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

That's exactly how Userify[0] used to work. (when it was Python; now that it's a Go app, we do the caching in memory using Ristretto[1]). 0. https://userify.com (team ssh key management/sudo authz) 1. https://github.com/dgraph-io/ristretto. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

> A better law would be to forbid "free" offerings by companies. They all are fraudulent "free", since you pay a commercial entity with either money or data. And, corporate "free" rarely stays free. When we first launched Userify[1], it was completely free. After a while, we realized that was kind of a dumb decision and decided to charge, and we lost zero customers. (We decided to only charge if you actually were... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

I am the CEO of a small startup named Userify (shameless plug: https://userify.com, innovative SSH key management, self-hosted and saas) and when we launched, a few mentions on Hacker News really kicked things off. Ten years and tons of adventures later, we've hit a bit of a growth wall. It seems like we're still valuable and useful to people and people still like to run their own servers/instances, so it seems... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
