I see you liking this @copyconstruct but no judging! You like your fancy database systems but our requirements are tiny. We optimize for things like our test suite running quickly & easily instead :)

@bradfitz @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw Heh, wondering if we helped trigger this today? I enabled a big Okta group sync and saw a bunch of "etcd.Commit: tx stale" errors returned.

@mike_deeks @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw Those "tx stales" are one of the remaining warts in our bridge between SQLite and etcd. We're working on it. Meanwhile (earlier today) we just serialized all SCIM operations (which take mere milliseconds) as a temporary crutch while we finish the etcd compat layer's tx semantics.

@bradfitz @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw Near real-time backups? But have you been able to restore your backups from s3. I always hear that backups don’t really count until they are successfully restored 🙃

@bradfitz @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw I was wondering about “or with a couple deft modifications, lets your app block at critical sections until the backup is done.” Could you elaborate? Sounds as if it were an important synchronization primitive in a mostly asynchronous setup.

@bradfitz @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw 🎂🎉

@ashishgandhi_ @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw @CockroachDB Maybe we can play with it for something else first. I like that SQLite is open source, at least.

@bradfitz @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw I enjoy anytime I see the words "near real time backups." It is one of the things that make me feel like we are finally living in the future.

@bradfitz @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw Looking forward to the production tuning post :)

@bradfitz @Tailscale @davidcrawshaw As far as I understand, litestream is running on a single server. Have you looked at rqlite? would love to dig into those.

@bradfitz @davidcrawshaw @Tailscale Anything S3 backed sounds extra seggsi 🙌🙌 What’s the throughput on that puppy?
