zepto tech is facing really bad tech debt
stumbled on zepto's blog post regarding their infra for using postgres here's why they're facing really bad tech debt: - db connections are maintained on the application layer (with 3 workers per pod), this setup should ideally have a proxy service that maintains the connection pool - ive no experience with managed databases, but shouldn't there be pre-configured connection thresholds and alerts if you rely on such services? they didn't have the most rudimentary alerts for database? - "as latency increased, new relic started fetching more EXPLAIN plans" this inherently looks like an incorrect implementation from new relic's end (a service they must be paying thousands of $/month); rather, it should fire alerts when the explain queries are failing (which is still not fixed) all of their metrics are scattered (these are mentioned in the blog post, who knows in reality how many they might be using): - "AWS Aurora with Performance Insights" - "RDS Postgres CloudWatch metrics" - "New Relic" how could one even dig so many platforms during downtime or escalations? it should be a nightmare working with this system at the very least they call this system "high-throughput", you're hardly doing a million deliveries per day, the scale is subjective, but if you genuinely feel that you need to do a reality check
