Show HN: PicoMQ – Durable Streams over HTTP, on object storage

60 pointsby adesh_nalpettoday at 4:08 PM9 commentsview on HN

PicoMQ is a Rust server for Durable Streams, built on Object Store. Cheap, URL-addressable, granular streams (create/append/read/long-poll/SSE), with Pico Protocol or Durable Streams Protocol as the facade.

S3Stream is the stream storage primitive, used in AutoMQ, shipped as a Rust library. Coordination is a command log in Postgres.

Love the landing page design! I'm excited to give it a whirl this evening.

Initially, I started to compare PicoMQ to https://github.com/s2-streamstore/s2. If you're familiar with them, how would you compare PicoMQ to S2?

Sounds great, and documentation is very clear.

So - in theory - something like a massive chat client, discord like, can be implemented via this solution? And what would be the pricing of such a solution. Cheap-serverless-discord

Can you help an old man understand?

This sounds like a kafka-like streaming system, but backed onto s3-objects?

Doesn't this mean that write performance is going to be bad?
