What it does
Tired of DB overhead? Meet dbzero - data persistence for Python with all the guarantees, minus the infrastructure. Built on the DISTIC model (Durable, Infinite, Shared, Transactional, Isolated, Composable), dbzero lets you persist Python objects with ACID-level safety directly in-process. Key Benefits: - Zero infra management - No SQL or ORM boilerplate - Zero round-trip latency - Full transactional integrity The safety of a database with the speed of local code.
Durable Python object state, inspection, process cooperation, and code-agent execution for data-intensive agents and agent-first applications.
dbzero gives Python applications durable object state, indexes, snapshots, inspection, and process cooperation. STATEK gives agents a controlled Python workspace inside the codebase, so they can work with real application objects without a separate API, CLI, or MCP surface for every action. dbzero keeps product state close to the Python objects your application already understands. STATEK lets agents work in that same codebase through a controlled Python workspace, so teams can build durable workflows without wrapping every action in a new API, CLI, or MCP layer. The result is agent work that can collaborate, pause, resume, leave an auditable trace, and stay open to human review. dbzero is…from dbzero.io

DBOS transact – Ultra-lightweight durable execution in Python2024 · github.com · ▲89Hi HN - DBOS CEO here with the co-founders of DBOS, Peter (KraftyOne) and Qian (qianli_cs). The company started as a research project of Stanford and MIT, and Peter and Qian were advised by Mike Stonebreaker, the creator of Postgres, and Matei Zaharia, the creator of Spark. They believe so strongly in reliable, serverless compute that they started a company (with Mike) to bring it to the world! Today we want to share our brand new Python library providing ultra-lightweight durable execution. https://github.com/dbos-inc/dbos-transact-py Durable execution means your program…

Show HN: Dzero – The fastest globally distributed SQLite database2024 · dzero.dev · ▲24At JigsawStack.com, we are using Redis by Upstash to store and validate API keys among other datasets for speedy retrieval. As we scaled to more Asian markets and added replicated nodes, the cost started to shoot up while performance got a lot worse. I discovered hosting SQLite on Fly which was crazy fast & cheap with the full power of a relational database but difficult to use and scale without writing tons of code & devops. Then I found Turso as a managed service which is pretty cool but again got really expensive and had to manage a bunch of replications manually and pay per replications…

My Go SQLite driver did poorly on a benchmark, so I fixed it2023 · github.com · ▲234https://github.com/ncruces/go-sqlite3 was doing poorly on this benchmark that was posted yesterday to HackerNews [1]. With the help of some pprof, I was able to trace it to a serious performance regression introduced two weeks ago, and come up with the fix (happy to field questions, if you're interested in the nitty gritty). It's not the fastest driver around, but it's no longer the slowest: comfortably middle of the pack. It's based on a WASM build of SQLite, and thanks to https://wazero.io doesn't need CGO. [1]:…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
