Congratulations! What's the availability of extensions? Any limitations worth knowing about?

does it work with subdomains?
zdms, where do you work? would love to connect & chat more. i'm facing this same problem. my email in profile.
Our database is heroku postgresql database. What's the best way to get this working with DuckDB? I see there's a postgresql connector but I'm not totally following how to deploy it. Would I just spin up a dyno with the docker image / custom build pack and connect it to the DB?
Awesome product.
1. Do you expect to support SQL Server? If so, do you know when?
2. Watched the Loom video. How should we handle multi-tenant data that requires a join? For example, let' say I want to send data specific school. The student would belong to a Teacher who belongs to a School.
I signed up for the waitlist! I noticed it asked about AWS, Azure, and GCP but we use Heroku. Hopefully, that won't put me too low on the list.
Do you have a sense for when people can try it? Most of our app is reads and we're using Rails + Redis and it's fine and sometimes a pain. Would love to try it.
Is there any intention to support languages other than JS? Can anything that compiles to wasm be supported?
The innovation in managed devops is pretty incredible! Had a question for the Supabase team regarding authorization and PostgREST.
Let's say I have Customer 1 who owns Document 2, 3. Document will have a foreign key pointing to Customer. How do I ensure that Customer 1 can't access Document 1?
Fly is putting together a pretty great team and interesting tech stack. It's the service I see as a true disruptor to Heroku because it's doing something novel (not just cheaper).
I'm still a little murky on the tradeoffs with Fly (and litestream). @ben / @fly, you should write a tutorial on hosting a todo app using rails with litestream and any expected hurdles at different levels of scale (maybe comparing to Heroku).

How's the support for window functions? One thing I like about ActiveRecord is it's lazily evaluated and you compose queries. You can do p = Post.where(published: true); if x; p.where(x: true). Is that supported?
Checked here for window function support. https://www.prisma.io/docs/concepts/components/prisma-client...
mau usually means logs in once during the month, if you have 20% mau that's 25k registered users. $250 / mo to manage a site with 25k users doesn't seem that bad.
Love it. Using full story now but really want remote access. How much does it cost?
Very cool. I'll definitely give it a test spin. I've been a big fan of PaaS but Render / App Engine / Beanstalk fall a bit short on dev ux. This looks the most promising. If you can add multiple regions and wildcard ssl, you'll solve 2 big problems we have with Heroku.
I use Superhuman. I can see myself switching over to Mimestream. One of my recent complaints is the lack of deep integration with GSuite. If you can match the speed & shortcuts AND integrate deeply with GSuite, I think you have something really compelling.
The app is a traditional email client that makes direct connections to Gmail and stores your data on your Mac. There are no intermediary servers with access to your account or copies of your messages. Mimestream is free for a limited time during the public beta, but will eventually be a paid app by the time it gets to the Mac App Store.
I appreciate the thought behind this. However, it means you can't implement some other features (pixel tracking, scheduled send, snooze) unless GSuite opens up an API for them. Consider having a subscription which uses a 3rd party server. I would be happy to pay for it.
I've been working on my deck for the last few months. What's. most useful would be funding round / year. Also, your search is broken so I can't tell you if you're missing any decks.
Actually, that's really helpful. Thank you! I was under the impression GraphQL was API end point and query resolver (so it knows how to do GraphQL -> SQL).
In full support of the boring club! See my other comment but essentially, I find ActiveRecord hasn't worked great for our use case because we don't really work with individual records.
I would like to have more flexibility in the client specifying what attributes and relations it wants.
Thanks for the tip. I don't need an API server (yet). Our app is driven by a lot of SQL. We end up with a lot of functions which are business_logic, business_logic_with_joins, business_logic_with_different_joins. I'm most interested in avoiding N+1 queries and letting the page ask for the attributes / relations it needs. GraphQL seemed like reasonable solution for that.
I'm a GraphQL n00b. My app is a pretty vanilla monolith server rendered Ruby on Rails / Postgres (no SPA).
1.) Would I use async-graphql on top of postgres and communicate via a ruby graph ql client?
2.) Is it a bad idea for me to use a rust backend on top of postgres instead of Ruby? Is there something more common then async-graphql?
3.) How is GraphQL for aggregate queries (count, avg, etc)?
I’m extremely impressed with how slick your Heroku integration is. We thought about moving over to render but the dev ux just isn’t there like Heroku. I would be fine with paying for a read replica on the west coast that was always running if you can make it as easy the rest of your Heroku integration.
you might be running into max connection issues because your library is leaving stale connections. i know this is the case for ruby & php. check if you have timeout set. see this github issue for ruby: https://github.com/redis/redis-rb/issues/524
Puma is definitely the fastest or one of the fastest. It's also the default in Rails now. https://github.com/puma/puma
I’ve seen this variations of this article posted on twitter. While I think there’s lessons to learn, I think there’s more to be unpacked here. For example, what clothes was she selling? For how much? I’ve read she did very little advertising (only one or two posts) but to be honest, her IG is pretty bare. I’m surprised she has 2m followers at all.
Matt & Mike, so excited! Gonna check out the session and sign up for the alpha!!!
I'm so excited about the App Engine updates. I'll be signing up for the Ruby 2.5 run time to replace Heroku in our stack.
Today, we are announcing support for new second generation runtimes: Node.js 10, Go 1.11, and PHP 7.2 in general availability and Ruby 2.5 and Java 11 in alpha. These runtimes provide an idiomatic developer experience, faster deployments, remove previous API restrictions and come with support for native modules. The above-mentioned Serverless VPC access also lets you connect to your existing GCP resources from your App Engine apps in a more secure manner without exposing them to the internet.
Hey Matt, Please bring Ruby to App Engine standard! Thanks :).
Suppose my application is dependent on the subdomain like "customer1.wasdapp.com". Is your application able to spin up "customer1.wasdstaging.com"?
* What should someone do if they get push back from an investor when asked to this term sheet?
* If this term sheet is used, can we avoid the legal costs of a Series A?
Do you know of any alphas running for App Engine? I'm interested in testing.
