Tigris details migrating async tasks from a FoundationDB-based QuiCK-style queue to Kafka to reduce read/write load and custom code, while keeping some queues in FoundationDB to avoid the dual-write problem.
Tigris demonstrates using its object storage as a database substitute by implementing essential primitives such as unique constraints and transactions directly on its distributed key-value store built on FoundationDB.
Flow is a programming language extension for C++11 that brings actor-based concurrency, enabling efficient asynchronous communication with futures and promises, and supporting deterministic simulation for reliability testing.
Kronotop explains its architecture for handling thousands of concurrent connections with blocking I/O by separating connection management (using Netty event loops) from work execution (using Java virtual threads), allowing it to scale like Redis while supporting blocking operations like FoundationDB calls.
An interview with Pierre Zemb, staff engineer at Clever Cloud, discussing his work building data layers on FoundationDB and his previous experience at OVHcloud.
