Deploying to Fly.io with SQLite

Deploying a Phoenix app to Fly.io is a breeze...is what everyone kept telling me. In fairness, I imagine the process would have been breezier had I just used postgres, but all the sqlite and litestream talk has been far too intriguing to ignore. "Wait", you say. "It is just a flat file. How much harder can it be?"

It is easy to make something harder than it should be. It is hard to take something complex and make it truly simple. flyctl launch does an amazing job at providing a simple interface to the utterly complex task of generating deployment resources, especially now that we are living in a containerd (erm, firecracker) world.

This gist is for anyone who, like me, thinks they know better than to read all of the documentation and therefore necessari

Quick Tips for Fast Code on the JVM

I was talking to a coworker recently about general techniques that almost always form the core of any effort to write very fast, down-to-the-metal hot path code on the JVM, and they pointed out that there really isn't a particularly good place to go for this information. It occurred to me that, really, I had more or less picked up all of it by word of mouth and experience, and there just aren't any good reference sources on the topic. So… here's my word of mouth.

This is by no means a comprehensive gist. It's also important to understand that the techniques that I outline in here are not 100% absolute either. Performance on the JVM is an incredibly complicated subject, and while there are rules that almost always hold true, the "almost" remains very salient. Also, for many or even most applications, there will be other techniques that I'm not mentioning which will have a greater impact. JMH, Java Flight Recorder, and a good profiler are your very best friend! Mea

BOSH Links: Why and How

Audience: anyone in the BOSH ecosystem, whether you work on something open-source or proprietary

"BOSH Links" is a feature which simplifies how data is shared between BOSH-deployed jobs that need to collaborate with one another (e.g. a web server and its backing database). Like many BOSH things, the whole "BOSH Links" thing can seem counter-intuitive at first, and it may not be clear why things are the way they are. This note hopes to show some of the powerful benefits of BOSH Links, and provide examples and explanations that make things more intuitive.

1. Why?
2. BASIC: A simple problem statement
3. BASIC: Putting the puzzle pieces together
4. ADVANCED: But what about...

In this gist I would like to describe an idea for GraphQL subscriptions. It was inspired by conversations about subscriptions in the GraphQL slack channel and different GH issues, like #89 and #411.

Conceptual Model

At the moment GraphQL allows 2 types of queries:

• query
• mutation

Reference implementation also adds the third type: subscription. It does not have any semantics yet, so here I would like to propose one possible semantics interpretation and the reasoning behind it.
