> In fact could you not just cron the cli deployment command on the nodes and get an effective poor man's declarative layer

In the project discord, a user recently experimented with a custom setup that sounds very similar to what you describe.

In fact, a big part of uncloud’s appeal to me is that it also provides powerful building blocks for more complex, custom systems like this, not just the streamlined workflow for simpler, standard cases.

I haven't tried it, but EPMD with DNS discovery should work just fine, and should be similar to this NATS example: https://github.com/psviderski/uncloud-recipes/blob/main/nats...

Basically just configure it with `{service-name}.internal` to find other instances of the service.

There is a `--no-install` flag on both `uc machine init` and `uc machine add` that skips that `curl | bash` install step.

You need to prepare the machine some other way first then, but it's just installing docker and the uncloud service.

I use the `--no-install` option with my own cluster, as I have my own pre-provisioning process that includes some additional setup beyond the docker/uncloud elements.

Do you have an example of what you mean? I'm not entirely clear on your question.

The `compose.yaml` spec for services let's you specify which machines to deploy it on, so you could target the database and web app to the same machine (or subset of machines).

There is also an internal DNS for service discovery and it supports a `nearest.` prefix, which will preferentially use instances of a service running on the same machine. For example, I run a globally replicated NATS service and then connect to it from other services using the `nearest.nats.internal` address to connect to the machine-local NATS node.

There isn't a cli function for adding a connection (independently of adding a new machine/node) yet, but they are in a simple config file (`~/.config/uncloud/config.yaml`) that you can copy or easily create manually for now. It looks like this:

    current_context: default
    contexts:
      default:
        connections:
          - ssh: [email protected]
            ssh_key_file: ~/.ssh/uncloud
          - ssh: [email protected]
            ssh_key_file: ~/.ssh/uncloud
          - ssh: [email protected]
            ssh_key_file: ~/.ssh/uncloud
          - ssh: [email protected]
            ssh_key_file: ~/.ssh/uncloud

And you really just need one entry for typical use. The subsequent entries are only used if the previous node(s) are down.

I can only speak for myself, but I considered a few options, including "simple k8s" like [Skate](https://skateco.github.io/), and ultimately decided to build on uncloud.

It was as much personal "taste" than anything, and I would describe the choice as similar to preferring JSON over XML.

For whatever reason, kubernetes just irritates me. I find it unpleasant to use. And I don't think I'm unique in that regard.

How does this compare to https://www.mooncake.dev/pgmooncake? It seems there are several projects like this now, with each taking a slightly different approach optimized for different use cases?

DuckPGQ is an interesting option, but unfortunately, that project hasn't been touched in a few months and does not currently work with the latest version of DuckDB.

A couple companies using Kuzu in products are talking about joining efforts on a community fork, including Gitlab and Kineviz. Possible future home of that work: https://github.com/Kineviz/bighorn

My best guess is the company was acqui-hired and will soon be working on implementing Kuzu's tech in a different database owned by the acquirer.

My _hope_ is that it was some IP issue with the University of Waterloo and a new company will appear shortly and pretty much pick up where they left off, but that's probably just wishful thinking on my part.

It looks like the WebRTC Object API might happen for IE13, but no support for the full API is planned.

It looks like IE12 should have the Audio API and getUserMedia, though. That lets you do some interesting things with audio, at least.

It varies by feature, but due to IE's long release cycle, it's generally about a year behind Firefox and Chrome on most things.

While basic sites work, some things just aren't possible to do in IE yet. For example, http://www.wavesurfer.fm/ works in every recent browser other than IE 11.

No. We expect better, I guess.

You probably should, too.
