We saved $50k/year with a Go microservice coded in a hackathon
I've come to the conclusion that the problem in tech is that all the people doing the work are in their early twenties and have no idea what they are doing. Once they get some experience they are quickly promoted to the CTO position. Rinse and repeat.What we have here is a classic dbms problem and no one at Movio seems to know how to deal with that. Instead of migrating from Mysql to something serious (Postgres) they move to some columnar DB no one has heard of. Nevermind that postgres and a reasonably priced DBA and a little thought put into their data model/queries could probably handle all their issues.Sorry for the snark, cheers on a successful product.
