• Using short lived Postgres servers for testing

  Echoing the other (dead?) comment here, https://testcontainers.com/ is a great tool for this. In our core makefile we have `make pytest` to run standalone unit tests, and then `make pytest_db` to run full database tests using a docker container. The test suite fires up a completely fresh DB, runs migrations against it, and then the test suite proceeds as usual. On a per-module basis a simple fixture is used to... - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• SpringAI, llama3 and pgvector: bRAGging rights!

  To support the exploration, I've developed a simple Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) workflow that works completely locally on the laptop for free. If you're interested, you can find the code itself here. Basically, I've used Testcontainers to create a Postgres database container with the pgvector extension to store text embeddings and an open source LLM with which I send requests to: Meta's llama3 through... - Source: dev.to / 17 days ago

• Revolutionize Your Unit Testing with Testcontainers and Docker

  Testcontainers is a very neat open source framework/project I just discovered. It enables developers to create unit tests using throwaway, lightweight instances of e.g. a database running in Docker containers. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• How Enabling Slow Query Log Enhances Postgres Observability

  However, if you run PostgreSQL only for a very short period, for instance during your automated tests, then you may have no technical way of reconfiguring it. This may be the case with Testcontainers. Typically, you may run some initialization code just before your actual test suite to initialize the dependencies like storage emulators or database servers. Testcontainers takes care of running them as Docker... - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• General Availability of .NET Aspire: Simplifying .NET Cloud-Native Development

  Infrastructure as code in C# is already supported by Pulumi[1]. However, developing anything significant requires a lot of copying values from one part of the stack to another, lots of magic strings and lots of combinations of parameters that don't work. Plus sometimes you choose a combination of parameters that works until your cloud provider upgrades Kubernetes or whatever and now that specific version of k8s... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• What is the cheapest VPS Hosting?

  I have an 11 GB VPS with Windows on it, and it’s running perfectly. I 100% recommend this hosting, because of it’s pricing and support. I give $8.25 a month for an 11 GB VPS. Which would cost up to $55 a month on popular hosting providers like, Linode, Vultr, and Digital Ocean. Source: about 2 years ago

• question for any linode users

  Anyone that hosts a server using the cloud provider linode.com Do you encounter any limits regarding the CPU speed? Source: about 2 years ago

• Linux OS

  One of my best recommendations is to spin up a linux server in the cloud, you can do it for free for a few months from linode.com for example. Setting up an online server for a game you like playing can also be a rewarding learning experience for networking and Linux in general. Source: about 2 years ago

• A2, Krystal, 20i, Brixly or Mechanicsweb. Best one for resellers?

  Then you can buy a VPS from linode.com, katapult.io, contabo.com or hetzner.cloud, I'd recommend a 4gb VPS, and in order to run, it has to be over 2gb. For the OS, choose AlmaLinux or a supported version of CentOS. Source: about 2 years ago

• An 'unlimited' web host has been deleting my files without any notice or warning..

  Use VPS, don't use shared web hosting when you generate content as it tends to use lots of resources like RAM, CPU %, and storage. I'd recommend hetzner.com, contabo.com, or linode.com. Source: about 2 years ago
