InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
> I seem to recall Meta/Facebook engineers on HN having said they have a tool that allows engineers to author SQL or ORM-like queries on the frontend and close to where the data is used, but a compiler or post-processor turns that into an endpoint.
I don't know about on-HackerNews but there's a discussion about their "all of Facebook optimizing compiler" infrastructure from when they did the site redesign in 2020: https://engineering.fb.com/2020/05/08/web/facebook-redesign/...
> perhaps not coincidentally, React introduced "server actions" as a mechanism that is very similar to [the above]
Yep - there's also the Scala framework LiftWeb (https://www.liftweb.net/), the Elixir framework Phoenix (https://www.phoenixframework.org/) and of course the system we're using right now (Arc) that do similar things. Scaling these kinds of UUID-addressed-closures is harder (because the client sessions have to be sticky unless you can serialize closures and send them across the network between servers).
