A while ago I read shopify hosts stores in pods. Pods are self contained instances that runs everything inside it, that includes mysql, redis, etc. does that mean this number is collective counting all the pods and not a single database?
Its more about providing equal opportunity. Ticket booking sucks for everyone rich and poor alike. This kind of app will favor rich people who can ignore its commission and spend little more for better experience.
One might say why not adopt something like this app for all but thats not possible. Operating at such large scale is very expensive and any profits from ticket commissions is never going to cover its expense and it will suffer same fate as the website.
Decided to redesign this very old website with NodeJS. Initially started with WordPress back in 2012 when I was in college, it was an excellent opportunity to lean web designing and SEO. Not really a side project any more, just want to keep it alive because it was my first proper website . Hope there are people out there who'll find it useful :)
Just inherited a project which cost $100 in lambda and it is still in development. The technology decision was made by client and previous developers just went along. Donno how to explain what perks to expect once its launched.
Nothing wrong with lambda though, its just the application spends lot of time waiting and theres 1000+ of those lambdas.
