604: The Startup Myth

You're eventually going to need it. It's a pain in the butt to add later. You should just start with caching. And before, you still have to make hard decisions, like what caching system am I using? Where am I caching? Am I caching in memory? Do I have enough memory? If I cache in the database, how many am I on an RPM hard drive? Am I running on a good old 5400 RPMs? Is that going to take forever?

Does it defeat the purpose of caching? Not anymore. NVMe drives. Great. That's a big win there. And solid cache being built into the framework makes it a hell of a lot easier to get started with. There's very little configuration. So that's just a win. Solid queue.

same idea i'm a little more skeptical because if you're writing big large enterprise rails applications they have complicated jobs that need to be done see the problem is i don't have anything that's greenfield right now using solidq and it doesn't make sense in my opinion to start mixing and matching right to try to retrofit older applications to use it

So I do wonder, from everything I've read, and I've watched the Rails Fun Notions YouTube video on this, is there like an upper bound of complexity where solid Q starts to fall down and you're going to end up using one of the popular gem solutions? I don't know, right? Like Sidekick is a gem. Sidekick with a Q, by the way, because they're cool. They want you to know they're cool.

They could have spelled sidekick like a kick. No, they threw in a Q. They've got their gold MacBook. They've got their Chinese tea bowl that they're drinking tea out of. A bowl, mind you, not a cup. These are cool people, and they can use the wrong letter when they want to.

And when they're listening, they're listening to NPR. Okay. They're very thoughtful. They sit, their hand is always in a triangle. I don't know why I'm, I'm attacking rails hipsters right now, but you know, I just, just one in particular. Yeah. So I want to try this out. I can't say that I would say, yeah, dump Sidekiq and everything for solid queue right now because I haven't done it yet.

And I worry. One of the things that Rails, I think the Rails maintainers have been working on, at least they say they have, is getting straightforward, out-of-the-box solutions that cover like 80% of the cases for things instead of relying on community gems.

i do wonder though are those just like the you know hot dogs and beans what if you have like a like i have an application we maintain that's really large and handles lots of uh very annoying little data files that come from all over process through raspberry pi it's a pain in the butt uses a bunch of uh i think it's sidekick jobs and rails that one and if there is a problem other than like you know an azure outage or something

it's almost always in one of these many, many jobs, right? That's like running every so often in the background. And there's a bunch of them, and they're complicated. So again, I want to be surprised. I want to be happy.

I don't mean to say I'm down on it, but if this really is as good as the presenter in the YouTube video, who I believe works for the Rails Foundation, is saying that this is not the trifecta from hell. This is the trifecta that's going to get the trains running on time. Get it, Rails?
