Show HN: EloqKV – Scalable distributed ACID key-value database with Redis API
11 by hubertzhang | 19 comments on Hacker News.
We're thrilled to unveil EloqKV, a lightning-fast distributed key-value store with a Redis-compatible API. Built on a new database architecture called the Data Substrate, EloqKV brings significant innovations to database design. Here’s the unique features that makes it stand out: - Flexible Deployment: Run it as a single-node in-memory KV cache, a larger-than-memory database or scale to a highly available, distributed transactional database with ease. - High Performance: Achieves performance levels comparable to top in-memory databases like Redis and DragonflyDB, while significantly outperforming durable KV stores like KVRocks. - Full ACID Transactions: Ensures complete transactional integrity, even in distributed environments. - Independent Resource Scaling: Scale CPU, memory, storage, and logging resources independently to meet your needs. We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

Ask HN: What email service(s) do you use for your side projects?
13 by jtap | 19 comments on Hacker News.
I have a couple side projects that I use for my friends, family, and myself. I'd like to have both an email such as team@mysite.com to send and receive emails that I might want to type out. I'd also like to be able to send transactional emails, password reset ... I would think that I'm not the only one with this problem. What do you all use to achieve this?

Ask HN: What runs L4-related microkernels/hypervisors these days?

I've been learning about the L4 microkernel, and am thinking about doing something related to it for a research project. I'm especially curious about more recent examples of specific devices that run L4 variants (seL4, PikeOS, OKL4, etc.). I already found a few that use seL4, but to take OKL4 as an example, most of the specific devices I could find are from more than a decade ago, and I'm trying to find things from at least the last 5 or 6 years. I'm even more curious to find devices that use a form of L4 as a hypervisor. Has anyone here worked on a device that used an L4-related kernel or hypervisor? I know one major area they're used in is defense and full of NDAs, but hopefully some of the other industries they're used in (medical devices, automotive, IoT) are a little less restrictive. Thanks in advance!
