Products that do what New UI for Ec2instances.info does

Hey HN, 10 years after the project began we have updated the UI for the cloud server comparison site known as EC2Instances.info. This refresh brings a sticky filter bar so you can scroll and see what filters are applied, a more compact navbar, and improved UX for comparing instances. I've also fixed numerous long standing UI bugs including: comparisons now load correctly on RDS and ElastiCache, sort by max ENI works, sort by RDS instance storage works, and all dropdowns have consistent behavior. For maintainers and contributors, all the frontend libraries are upgraded to their latest…

    Hi HN! During the last few years, I worked on a few applications built with Go, running on AWS Lambda. As I got to know the platform better, I started to find Go & Lambda to be a really productive combination. The applications were fast, and they ended up being much cheaper to run than what my team & I had built before. It’s probably not the best platform for _every_ application, but I was surprised at how much of our workload worked well on it. As we brought new engineers on to our team and helped them get up to speed with the stack, I found that we were covering a lot of the same topics…

    Hi everyone, My name's Kaveh: I'm the founder of www.usage.ai EC2 Pricing: https://ec2pricing.usage.ai/ I thought the previous generation of EC2 Pricing Pages were getting quite slow and a bit buggy. So, I'm excited to announce that we launched a free, new EC2 pricing page for the community. Do you often look up EC2 Pricing? Would love to hear your thoughts direct: [email protected]

    Hey HN: Kaveh here, the founder of https://www.usage.ai/ We launched a new free tool to help engineers understand their AWS spend. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. DevOps and Software Engineers end up end up becoming cloud accountants or end up forking over a big % of their AWS bill for a tool to understand costs rather than focusing on business problems. Previous to founding Usage, I worked on high-performance computing research at JP Morgan Chase and as a software engineer at a number of smaller startups. Here's how this new tool works: It's fully self-serve and…

    Hi all, I'm one of the authors of Serverless-Stack.com — an open source guide to building full-stack apps with AWS Lambda and React. Since it's launch in 2017, it's become one of the most widely read guides for building Serverless apps. Today we are adding a new section to the guide that walks you through the best practices of building large Serverless applications. It tries to address some of the most common questions that teams have: - How should my project be structured when I have dozens of interdependent services? - How should I manage my environments? - What are the best practice for…

    Hi HN, I’m Sean, the founder of Ascend.io (https://www.ascend.io). I’m really excited to post here and announce the launch of Ascend.io, a radical new way of designing, scaling, and automating data pipelines. Ascend is the result of nearly 4 years of development effort for a team that is now 30-strong, and I would love for you to give it a test drive and let me what you think. I’ve felt this pain since I wrote my first MapReduce in 2004 (using Sawzall @ Google), and in the 15 years since, things have not improved at the pace of other parts of the technology ecosystem. When I went…

    Hi HN, https://companies.bx.tc My colleague and I put together this tool for easily searching UK company data. We run a few server side batches daily to extract data from various government sources before linking it all together in (what is now) a fairly large database. We're also using this project as a way to test out a new JS UI library we built (similar to Vue, but a bit faster) to see how it stands up in a real project. We'd love to hear your feedback and any ideas you have for how we can improve the dashboard! Thanks :)

    Hey Hackernews! My names Olly (a Designer from the UK). I’ve been a long time lurker on Hackernews but now I finally have something to share with the community. Along with my friend Oliver (Developer, Sweden/Japan) we have been working on Remotewise.io. It’s a new resource and learning platform dedicated to remote work. We’ve both been working remotely for most of our careers. Over this time remote work has been gaining huge momentum as a viable and desirable way to work and we believe it’s the future. We’ve been working on this during our evenings and weekends in between our full-time…

    Hi HN, I've been building CH-UI, an open-source ClickHouse workspace. Today I'm releasing v2, which is a complete rewrite from scratch. v1 was a React SPA served via Docker. v2 is a single Go binary with an embedded Svelte frontend — download, run, open browser. No Docker, no Node, no runtime dependencies. What it does: - Multi-tab SQL editor with autocomplete - Database/table explorer with data preview - Saved queries - Tunnel architecture: run `ch-ui server` on one machine and `ch-ui connect` next to your ClickHouse — secure WebSocket tunnel, no VPN needed - Self-update (`ch-ui…

    I just launched http://teamzones.io, a project I had been working on during weekends that attempts to solve a problem I've run into as a member of a remote team: keeping track of _when_ people are working in relation to yourself is a pain. Since this is hacker news and some of you might find this interesting, the stack is: * Go on AppEngine on the backend * Elm on the frontend And here's a breakdown of the source code: ~/s/g/s/teamzones (master)> cloc --exclude-dir=node_modules,vendor,static,elm-stuff,elm.js,index.html . 158 text files. 156 unique files. 48…

    This is a two man team and we're in full-on development of a new platform to assist in multiplayer games. We're looking to launch in about a month or two with an OpenID server accessible to customers (or they can use provider like Facebook/Twitter) and a couple cool multiplayer features. After we launch development will continue until we have a well-rounded API. We're primarily targeting HTML5+JS developers but the system will work with any language that can make RESTful API calls. We know there's some stiff competition out there but we're looking for feedback and what features may make…

    I got sick of: - Re-writing the same Terraform for the same common AWS infrastructure - Re-writing the same Rails code to build the same webapp - Re-configuring the same monitoring systems & CI/CD pipelines - Spending a week in dependency & configuration hell wiring it all together When I was launching my first two startups, I wished I had a strong starting point with all of the best practices & technology configured out-of-the-box. Every tool I found wanted to lock me in to some PaaS provider (that might not even exist in a year) who wanted to take a premium on my infrastructure spend…

    Howdy friends! Tell me if this is an atrociously terrible idea - I've been working on building a leetcode for clientside devs so we can practice React and Javascript interview questions in a more concise way, I call it clientside.dev I just finished a beta version of it yesterday and plan on releasing it with many more problems on Jan 1st but it's there if you wanna play with it open to any ideas / feedback however mean or nice it may be :)

    Hey HN, As most of you (I think?), I cannot learn something without having a project, on the side, to implement what I’ve just learned. Recode is the project that I've used to learn Go. It lets you create a development environment in your cloud provider account easily. You can think of it as a desktop version of Gitpod / Coder / GitHub Codespaces less polished and with less features but 100% free and open-source. At the time of writing, it only works with Visual Studio Code and AWS. In order to let you configure your development environments easily, I’ve chosen to use Docker with…
