Well, it's actually more...
---
### - Open source (github.com/watch-devtube)
--
### - Channel curation via GitHub (github.com/watch-devtube/contrib)
--
### - All data is mutable
???
your name is mistyped by a conf organiser
--
### - No marketing videos
--
### - Subscribe by channel/tag/speaker
--
### - Better ranking (bit.ly/how_we_rank)
--
### - Better UX and search (thanks to community)

- no javascript
- super nice
---
class: firebase
background-image: url(firebase.png)
background-size: contain
???
- authentication (github, twitter, google)
- firestore, document storage as a service (subscriptions, favorites, watched)
- Pay as go you. Limits are generous. We go and don't pay.

## Back-End

background-image: url(algolia.png)
background-size: contain
???
- Serverless, SaaS algolia (~elastic search as a service)
- Algolia had OSS plan and, according to our convo, I understood it's free for OSS. No limits.

.fire[]

- And then everything went on fire... Limits!

# **Free is a lie.**
### youtube.com/watch?v=ldhHkVjLe7A

### @eduardsi: We are victims of our popularity. Need 5M free records to survive. PLEASE!
--
### @algolia: We won't be able to give you 5M operations for free. The 300k operations you have is already more than what we usually give for open-source. I'll bump it to 400k so you can enjoy your Hacker News ride, but I won't be able to do much more unfortunately. What I can do though is to hook you up with our sales team if you'd like.
???
shit, exactly what we need now. dealing with sales.
--
### @eduardsi: OK. Please send me the quote.
???
- at this point it was clear we can't afford it and have to run away.
- but we had to pretend that we are a prospective customer. Saying "no" might have kill us.

# **#2 LRU caching**

- can't change UI. but
- intercept Algolia requests and mimic responses on our backend.
---

# express.js + Google Cloud Functions
???
- no time and money for managing servers.
- GCF reached GA only in July, 2018. Now it's less stable than in BETA :))
---
class: center, middle
# Why not AWS?
???
- Native Express.js API support vs. API gateway magic
- Easy to use, no access rights magic
- No PhD in computer science (with flexibility comes cost)
---
# What can replace Algolia in long-term?
--
### - Elasticsearch
???
- self-hosted (servers)
- managed ($$$)
--
### - Elasticsearch
--
### - Lunr.js (github.com/olivernn/lunr.js) + Loki.js (github.com/techfort/LokiJS)

# Serverless, in-memory, cheap full-text search
### (github.com/watch-devtube/commons/blob/master/lib/Fastr.ts)
???
look ma, no servers! code + data is deployed as single lambda fn.
---
class: center, middle
# Seriously, no servers?
???
Well, ok, there is one.
---
class: center, middle
# **Nginx**
???
- glue custom domain with cloud functions.
- cheaper than Google Cloud LB
- f1-micro instance, less memory than Raspberry PI and only once CPU
- handling huge traffic and no busy at all : )
---
class: center, middle, danger
# **Cold starts**
???
- 5-10 seconds
- solution: progress bar
- solution: CDN for static files
- solution: split functions into smaller functions
- solution: keep functions warm
---
class: center, middle, danger
# **Downtimes**
???
- no zero downtime deployments in GCF
- aws wins here
- we implemented blue-green. We have 2 versions, then check if app is alive, then switch nginx.
---
class: center, middle, danger
# **Case-by-case test automation**
???
- we do not have the luxury of time to auto-test everything.
- we started testing more when things stabilized (to avoid regressions).
- autotest things that it's hard / annoying / expensive to tests manually (ranking)
- autotest critical scenarios (e.g. where bugs can lead to data corruption)
- No test env, so we deploy and TiP
- focus on MTTD / MTTR (errors go to Slack, PingDom)
---
class: center, middle
# **How much does it cost?**
???
- burn rate 20$
- 300$ from Google
- zero ops cost (serverless!).
- dev time, but have amazing contributors, including famous IT peeps. See –
---
background-image: url(leaderboard.png)
