look at InfluxData history. If this seed round funds run out there will be push for 4.0 and this will be whatever attracts investors money

Yet another "NEW TECH" craze from InfluxDB. All their marketing is the same - always - look we use something new. Every 2-3 years the same.

I am waiting for InfluxDB 4.0 when Rust hype ends and Zig/OCaml or whatever is the new hype.

p.s.s. please build something that is not going to be deprecated in 3 years. DB world does not need this fruitfly lifetime nonsense. I can no build my things on these promises.

InfluxData is killing InfluxDB with their changes. Their v1->v2->v3 changes are beyond insane. They revealed that flux is deprecated in v3, their main selling point for v2. In database domain you would like stability not breaking change in every 2-3 years. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37206194

We are preparing to move to Timescale as our application use relational database for some of the data. Although we use MariaDB, switching to PostgreSQL would help with operations and after that we have single (edge) database to operate.

p.s. 40+ instances are smaller scale (2-25GB) edge installations at the "site". Migration edge installations is very tedious process.

Snaps are BS.

I did couple of months ago clean ubuntu 22.10 install. Somehow curl was installed from snap - of course I had problem saving curled files due sandboxing. Installed mosquitto2 (MQTT server) - of course it did not read my custom confs from /etc/... anymore - due sandboxing. Installed Libreoffice from snap - it Calc (excel alternative) was exctremely slow somehow - switched to Libreoffice from APT repo - it was fast as it should be.

and to not start with the autoupdate nonesense that you can not disable.

I have been ususing Kubuntu since 2010 and thinking of switching to some other distro with KDE and all because of SNAPs

Fiber is built on FastHTTP. If you know Go top "frameworks" performance characteristics then you would know that you are actually comparing HTTP implementations - ala whether framework is based on FastHTTP or Go standard library HTTP implementation. Framework own % there is for the top 5 almost non-existent.

I would assume this is same case where - what ever Socketify is based on (pythons transport layer), is compared to FastHTTP. and mention of Fiber is click-bate.
