Talking to traditional, centralized databases without adding latency is one of the hardest challenges of moving to applications to run in serverless functions. Most of us are all used to co-located DB and compute. Hyperdrive is our answer. hyperdrive-demo.pages.dev
Connect Hyperdrive to your database with one line of code and voilà: connections and queries get faster! bit.ly/3tem9C3
Come work with me at Cloudflare! We're hiring a product manager for Durable Objects and a director for all storage-related products under the Workers umbrella. Reach out if you have questions or want to apply! boards.greenhouse.io/cloudflare/job… boards.greenhouse.io/cloudflare/job…
A very wonky blog post. We noticed many Durable Objects apps had classic storage bugs (race conditions, unconfirmed writes, long waits, etc.). Instead of telling people to fix their code, we fixed the system, so intuitively-written code is now correct. blog.cloudflare.com/durable-object…
I'm really excited for the Workers Durable Objects beta - they make it easy to build stateful, coordinated serverless applications that run around the globe close to where they're used without the developer needing to think about where they're running blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-wo…

Barbara Liskov on key Val stores: Step 1: I don't need a database Step 2: I'll implement a fast key Val store Step 3: I need features Step 4: oh, I've implemented a database #splash18 @splashcon
If relational databases were invented today
I'm looking forward to a fun day spent discussing containers with @jbeda and company at @QConSF Come join us!
I wrote a guide recently on improving performance when running in #Kubernetes. It's focused on running #CockroachDB, but the advice is mostly broadly applicable for running other systems too. I'd love some feedback on it! cockroachlabs.com/docs/stable/ku…
The kernel community is about to replace iptables with BPF. I've captured my thoughts in a blog post. The performance gains speak for themselves. cilium.io/blog/2018/04/1…
It's great to see my current and former projects work so well together!
Thanks to everyone who came to talk on distributed SQL databases at #strangeloop today! Slides are available at slideshare.net/AlexRobinson13…
I co-wrote this piece on allocation efficiency in Go. Please tell me what you think and if we missed something big! segment.com/blog/allocatio…
STAGES OF WORKING FROM HOME - Yay I get to work from home - It would be nice to talk to people - I hope that pigeon sits in the window today
This blog, which has one explanation a day on a Postgres feature or component, seems pretty great malisper.me
