Show HN: A data store like Firestore and Algolia all in one

Posted by marcelthomas on Wednesday March 16, 2022 @05:08AM
from the show-hn dept.

I created a data store called Nubostore that is serverless, globally distributed, strongly consistent, low latency, real-time, with Instant-Search engine, and accessible via REST and GraphQL. I wanted a powerful data storage system, without the complexity of database management. Please let me know your thoughts! https://nubo.app/nubostore

This looks pretty cool! I like the idea of managed databases and getting access via an API layer.

Serverless search or on-demand search definitely makes sense. I would also be interested on what you use under the hood.

Also how can I define on what should be searched on?

No imprint, no company location, no contact info, no pricing, no info on where the data is stored and which hosting provider is used - why should I trust you with my (or my customers‘) data?

The product doesn't look ready for a production use in any commercial product. But as a PoC or a start-up it looks great and promising.

Would be nice to know what you are using under the hood. Like could I use meilisearch, hasura, postgres to do what this does?

I haven't tested it yet but it sounds awesome.

Could you talk more about how it's built and where the data is stored?

I assume this is built on top of another cloud service provider like AWS or GCP, so can you talk about which services you used? Like for e.g. is this an abstraction layer on top of DynamoDB?

I'll definitely try in next project. I've been using Firestore for 2 years and it feels overkilling to setup sync with BigQuery just for searching a little thing.

>> globally distributed, strongly consistent

That's very hard to achieve technically without some compromises. It will be great if you can elaborate on how you achieve this.

This looks great.

What are you using for the natural language question answering part?
