    Notes
    So why did we ditch Fly? In the end it came down to the following four things. Until these are improved, I’d be unlikely to recommend it for Productionā„¢ work.

  • Regular Restarts Are Good, Actually
    Notes
    By enforcing the lack of local state, we can ensure that state lives somewhere more appropriate - a queue, a database, an object store and so on. This makes coordination significantly easier - shared-nothing services can be thrown away, scaled up and down without having to worry about state.

  • Using static websites for tiny archives – alexwlchan
    Notes
    Because this system has no moving parts, and it’s just files on a disk, I hope it will last a long time. I’ve already migrated a lot of my files to this approach, and I’m pleased with how it’s going. I get all the simplicity and portability of a file full of folders, with just a bit of extra functionality sprinkled on top.

  • Autoscale based on metrics Ā· Fly Docs
    Notes
    The metrics-based autoscaler scales an app’s Machines based on any metric, such as pending work items or queue depth. Scaling on metrics other than requests or connections is useful for apps, like background workers, that aren’t running web services. Apps with services that need to scale based on HTTP requests can use the built-in Fly Proxy autostop/autostart feature for Machines.

  • Pro Git - Smart HTTP Transport
    Notes
    "I think HTTP based Git will be a huge part of the future of Git, so if you’re running your own Git server, you should really check it out. If you’re not, GitHub and I’m sure other hosts will soon be supporting it - upgrade your Git client to 1.7ish soon so you can take advantage of it when it happens."
