Just Five Mins!

Wow, well you wait two years for an episode and two come along!

This time it is Tauri - a cross platform development stack built on Rust with an incredible small deployment footprint.  Supports HTML/CSS/JS type technologies (Angular, Vue, React and whatever too!).  

Provides an installable desktop bundle for the main OS's with lots of lovely features for you to check out.

Well, it has only taken 2 years to create a new Episode!

This one is getting very rusty...

SurrealDB is written in Rust but, although that is cool anyway, it is what SurrealDB has to offer.. take a listen!

Quite an interesting move on the buzz that (still) is GraphQL and in this case, Hasura have been quite inventive I think by building a cloud/local mechanism to generate GraphQL backends by pointing at (selectively!) PostgreSQL, MySQL and soon to be MS-SQL.  Hasura also helps generate the fine-grained authentication too as well as offering a way to integrate business logic and more.

Some links to get you started:

Direct link to the Hasura docs
A cool learning with Jason; Serverless with Hasura (which looks cool and I actually need to watch myself!)

Really well thought through app, plus the fact the developer has given some really good in-depth walk-throughs of how it was built, with what technologies etc.

Certainly worth checking out!

In this episode we take a quick look at Azure SQL Serverless and briefly Amazon AWS Aurora which provides MySql and PostgreSQL as serverless too!

The key take-away here is the fact you only pay when the database is being consumed and you only have the storage to pay for which is pretty minimal.
