I build cloud storage @archildata (YCF24)
San Francisco, CA
Joined January 2015
The way developers interact with storage hasn’t changed since EC2 in 2006. We’re fixing that. Today, we’re announcing @archildata's $6.7M seed round led by @felicis. Infinite, shareable volumes — instantly connected to your data, and radically simplifying your system.

man, do i have some horror stories about MTU and internal AWS networking infrastructure.
UDP is a message protocol, whatever the user writes is treated as a unit. Problem is we are restricted by data link transmission unit (called MTU). IP which carries UDP can be fragmented, to break that large message into smallest MTU. You can also disable fragmentation but

we’re going to expose replication to our customers so they can tell us when they want us to do it, and when they want us to hold off because their applications do it fine. great price x performance balance for everyone.

this is basically a story about replication. if you’re doing replication in the application layer, then it doesn’t make sense to then pay AWS multiple times over to do replication for you at the disk layer. depending on the replication factor, AWS could be writing your data.
For reference:. 1tb io2 ebs volume with 64k iops = $3,600/mo. i7ie.xlarge with 2.5tb ssd and ~100k iops = $380/mo.

the weekend is the perfect time to push a ton of breaking changes to the service. this ensures that everyone is really energized when they come in Monday.

everyone thinks that SaaS is over until you use the utility billing platform of a small, rural town.

I try and try, but I cannot understand the purpose of Kafka. Feels like an anti-pattern.

some people get excited about being able to provision a database in seconds. for us, it’s a failure case if anything takes thousands of milliseconds.

after we started using Devin I had to:. - turn off notifications for PRs (too many).- triple our github actions budget.
I cannot believe I’ve been sleeping on Devin @cognition_labs — probably the single most impactful thing I’ve purchased for the company.
