Been using Riza for the past few months at our startup for executing code generated by GPT4.
We use it for local dev, running prompt eval, and running code in prod.
- It was very fast to setup - it took us just a few minutes to execute our first function call.
- Multiple languages support - we use both JS and Python for code generated by LLM , Riza works great with both languages out of the box.
- No cold start - this is important because latency matters in our product.
- No infra management - even if we use AWS lambda or similar serverless product we felt like we still needed to a bunch of setup to make sure its fast + secure.
Been using Riza for the past few months at our startup for executing code generated by GPT4.
We use it for local dev, running model eval (when changing prompts), in CI and production work loads.
- It's the easiest to setup. It took us just a few minutes to execute our first function call.
- Multiple languages support - we use both JS and Python for code generated by LLM , Riza works great with both out of the box.
- No cold start - this is important because latency matters in our product.
- No infra management - even if we use AWS lambda or similar serverless product we felt like we still needed to a bunch of setup to make sure its fast + secure.
My team has been using this in production for the past 6 months - this is the best way to write Graphql server in Typescript by far and I have tried it all
We don't do anything automatic like that (yet?), you will have to add indexes manually.
But I would have to say - modern day databases are so fast that you probably won't notice the performance of adding indexes until at least 100k+ rows in a table and/or you have very high read throughput on that particular table.
Google tables is similar to Airtable, they are proprietary databases. You cannot query them and interface with them easily from another application like a regular database.
Retool Database has that friendly table UI but also give you the full query capability via SQL (we even give you the Postgres connection string that let you connect to it externally with your favorite tool).
We agree! The UI can be really helpful to make quick changes to schema, data, etc. You can’t run the UI without a Retool account though. We have a self-hosted Retool that works with your own Postgres database that you connect to Retool. Docs here: https://docs.retool.com/docs/retool-database-self-hosted
For self-hosted customers, Retool Database operates more like a front-end for your own DB (though we do require specific versions of Postgres for it all to work smoothly). Docs here: https://docs.retool.com/docs/retool-database-self-hosted
Spreadsheets are often used as “poor man’s databases”—they’re quick to get started, but fall apart when you need data integrity, validation, and the ability to query/filter data.
This is why I am so excited about this launch - Retool Database gives you the power of Postgres with the “getting started” speed of a spreadsheet. No setup required.
We've also spent a lot of time on the UI for interacting with the database as well. You can create and edit tables, columns, and rows quickly without writing SQL. You should be able to get the same speed of iteration as spreadsheets, but you are also starting from the get-go that can handle the increasing complexity of your data and scale much better with app development.
We’re giving you 5GB free storage for the first year + connection strings so you can access your data outside Retool.
Lots of learnings as we built this—happy to answer any question you have!
