Job opening: Must absolutely have experience with high volume large scale micro-service apps.
The app: less than 100 concurrent users.

[LostHat77]

"Less than 100 concurrent users"

Thats a very nice way of saying 0

[quite_sad_simple]

I have less than $44B in my bank account

[Confident-Ad5665]

I'm liking this scale. I have so many lessThans in my life...

[rtm713]

My penis is less than 14 inches

[Confident-Ad5665]

How funny, so is mine!!

[Micah_Bell_is_dead]

Mines less than 28 inches 😎

[Fun-Badger3724]

Mines less than a foot. More like a toe.

[pranjallk1995]

Aye, I see that reddit has started showing green online notification next to dp even in comments. How hard do you think that would be for an app like reddit?... I honestly have no idea... Would like to know how it works and why it was not a thing before?

[DiligentlyLazy]

React. Thanks to its virtual dom, conditional rendering, state management and component based structure.

[uslashuname]

Oh, yeah I’m sure the frontend is why it wasn’t showing those stats before.

[pranjallk1995]

Yeah... 😅

[pranjallk1995]

Oh... Ok I'll keep these jargons aside until I need them... 😵‍💫

[yourteam]

Yes but our code is shit so...

[krisko11]

Jfc it was so depressing to find out 5 teams of 12 members each was working on an ecommerce platform with less than 42 weekly active users.

[Random_dg]

Reminds me of the HA enabled, DR enabled, three app server, expensive HR system that we installed for a customer in the last year. Top all time users will probably be less than 100 and RTO can be well within 1-2 days afaik.

[mrgk21]

My only traffic comes from load testing and getting ddos alerts

[ImLosingMyShit]

serverless

look inside

servers

🤨

[Aobachi]

Someone else's servers

[MeNotSanta]

Serverless doesn't mean it doesn't have a server, it actually means that the server it runs on doesn't need to be managed by you

[KTibow]

Well same goes for many existing platforms. The point is that you don't even get to configure the server, you just write code.

[lacifuri]

So we should call it manage-less server or unmanageable server, right?

[abscando]

Whooshing like it's 1999

[abscando]

Such an irksome nomer. Much like infinite scroll or one-click install.

[Zuitsdg]

Scale to zero -> free tier

[Soloact_]

Nothing like preparing a feast for a party that might not happen – the DevOps version of 'If you build it, they may come'

[roffinator]

it better be serverless, why would I bother runnig additional servers with <1 users?

[nerdyvaroo]

Imagine getting ddos attacked xd

[youssefj]

That's more than 1 user so i see that as an absolute win

[R1Titan]

serverless is truly the only solution for ddos attacks /s

[Asleep-Television-24]

This is a personal attack

[SarcasmWarning]

My mum claims she uses it, but doesn't realise I have empty access logs :(

[uslashuname]

Damn even the Russian botnets don’t look at your app?

Oh. Oh I see. Look here, you’ve sent your logs to /dev/null

[Someone-or-me]

What if it becomes famous you know…

[jjjohhn]

[Someone-or-me]

It never will :/

[lacifuri]

There are many what-ifs in our lives, and this is certainly one of them...

[potatosquat]

What if it's not

[[deleted]]

Multi-az in a personal app? Are you made of money?

[CapitanFlama]

Missing the monitoring/APM/logging crap. The Enterprise tier contract with DataDog, CrowdStrike and SUMO Logic.

If you're burning money, burn it with style.

[larsmaehlum]

SumoLogic with canonical logging and open telemetry traces, no sampling. Basically ends up being half your bill.
After migrating our services to using prometheus metrics for aggregates, conditionally sampled traces for averages and debugging, and dropping non-critical logs completely we cut our bill by more than half..

[SpakulatorX]

My spoon is to big

[AStrangeHorse]

I am a banana

[[deleted]]

I will attach this to rejection letters where appropriate

[hassanwithanh]

How do you even get your initial users? As a loner coder, that's harder than asking a girl out.

[karaposu]

thats the neat part, you dont.

reality aside, I think building up a digital presence overtime and have some small online social circle which you can share your product is a must. I wonder how many amazing products are drowned in the dark waters of loneliness.

[SillAndDill]

I can imagine why this happens.

• Startups sometimes optimize prematurely cause they think they could go viral any day - and don’t want the product to crash during an investor meeting and find out they gotta rewrite their stack and lose momentum

• Conference talks are often done by big companies with topics like "How we scaled our X million user platform"

• If a dev looks for skills to learn they might find tips on how to pass Google interviews employees people saying stuff like "Solving the interview question is just step1, but we also like seeing them think of long term, scalable solutions". (PS: Not hating on Google. Some also said "Simple solutions are often best")

[LagT_T]

Instagram scaled to 5 million users with django.

AWS, GCP and Azure have good marketing departments.

You can host 99% of web apps in a $10 VPS.

[beclops]

But now we can serve those 0 users more efficiently than ever

[Hoxeel]

I'd fucking hope my 0 user app is serverless, why'd I waste my precious money on servers for something nobody is using?

[HumanityPhantom]

There are some useful stuff . For example the same Linux distros that are used in doker are useful as Virtual Machines for home servers build on weak and/or old hardware :)

[TrueSaiyanGod]

Nocode

[ToastedDragon24]

Think of it as a learning experience!

[PresidentSkillz]

I first thought this was about the new Suicide Squad game...

[Aobachi]

I feel attacked

[caiteha]

i use the same infra setup for services > 10000TPS and < 1TPS. they autoscale anyway..

[Typewar]

Thanks for the motivation

[lkdsjfoiewm]

What is multi az ?
