Database anonymization and secure sharing across developers

  1. 1VP

    # TL;DR We built VeilStream, a drop-in, read-only PostgreSQL proxy that strips, masks, or anonymizes sensitive values as queries stream through. In less than two minutes, you can put a proxy in front of a PostgreSQL database, whether hosted on your laptop, Neon, Supabase, or a cloud provider, and the user is able to start configuring filter rules. The use cases we're trying to solve are: - Production-like data in development environments - Improve incident handling by masking all data that is not relevant - Share a subset of your data - Protecting data being shipped into a data lake - Safe…

    Hey there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…

    Hello! For the past year I’ve been working on a fully-managed data warehouse built on Clickhouse. I built this because I was frustrated with how much work was required to run an OLAP database in prod: re-writing my app to do batch inserts, managing clusters and needing to look up special CREATE TABLE syntax every time I made a change. I found pricing for other warehouses confusing (what is a “credit” exactly?) and worried about getting capacity-planning wrong. I was previously building accounting software for firms with millions of transactions. I desperately needed to move from Postgres to…

    Hi! My name is Vadim, and I’m the developer of Greenmask (https://github.com/GreenmaskIO/greenmask). Today Greenmask is almost 1 year and recently we published one of the most significant release with new features: https://github.com/GreenmaskIO/greenmask/releases/tag/v0.2.0, as well as a new website at https://greenmask.io. Before I describe Greenmask’s features, I want to share the story of how and why I started implementing it. Everyone strives to have their staging environment resemble production as closely as possible…

    One year ago I open-sourced my very first 'real' project and shared it here. I was a college student in my senior year and desperately looking for a job. At the time of sharing it i couldn't even afford a domain and naively let someone buy the one i had my eyes on lol. It's been a hell of a year with this blowing up, me moving to another country, and switching 2 jobs. In a year we somehow managed to hit 26k stars, grow a 1000+ person discord community, and support 37 languages. I couldn't be more grateful for the community that helped this grow, but now i don't know what direction to take…
