CockroachDB is reaching escape velocity! We’ve just raised $278M at a $5B valuation. How did we get here? What's next?🧵

🪳 Today we're expanding the range of Prisma compatible databases with Preview support for CockroachDB! Join our "What's new in Prisma" live stream to discuss this new release with Aydrian (エイドリアン): 🗓 Thu, Feb 3rd, 2022 | 5pm CET 🎟 bit.ly/3AM7rlv prisma.io/blog/prisma-pr…

so uh @Twitter banned CockroachDB on its 7th birthday for being under 13 years old 😢 it's nice to know that they're protecting kids from the horrors of the internet. but even 7 year old businesses are actually made up of real adults it turns out! I mean, most of them anyway.

I'm very excited to share what I've been working on at Datadog, Inc. recently. ✨ Connecting Go Profiling With Tracing felixge.de/2022/02/11/con… Check out the blog post to learn how profiling can fill in the gaps for distributed tracing, and how it works under the hood!

hey cool CockroachDB is on the top of @GitHub Trending today for some reason!⭐️ github.com/trending





last week team tpuf welcomed two more p99 database engineers Nathan VanBenschoten and Dan Harrison ❤️🐡💨

Week one hacking on search turbopuffer and I’m shocked: the write:read ratio is way higher than OLTP. Ingesting and indexing a constant stream of massive batches is heavy on writes. Reads are less frequent—they just need to be fast.
