Yet Another Infrastructure Group

Hosted by Ian & Alex, with Alana (Readyset), Hojjat (Deltastream), Jamie (Convex).

Convex and the future of streaming infrastructure

Convex is a JS-powered database and backend for web apps that’s reactive — you can use it to create endpoints and queries that update automatically when data changes. Tom Ballinger will teach us how.

Dynamic application developers need global state management, not a database.

James (@jamesacowling) presents his talk from the HYTRADBOI 2022 database conference on how Convex is rethinking how app developers manage global state.

Today, a new wave of innovation is making databases approachable for developers without requiring a specialized skillset, opening the door to a whole new category of ambitious web experiences. In this panel, you’ll hear from the people pushing the boundaries of database technology and learn what’s possible — and what’s coming.

Jamstack Conf 2022 Panel: The Future of Databases

The future of databases is Convex. This video originally aired at Jamstack 2022, highlighting the next evolution of modern web development architecture.

The future of databases is not just a database

Reactivity has taken a dominant position today within web app development. Our components and app state are all reactive, and the world has adapted–most would argue, for the better.

But has Convex gone too far? 😉

A new generation of serverless backends like Convex is recklessly spreading reactivity across our databases, server-side functions, and protocols, making global reactivity a new phenomenon. Shared global data is becoming reactive by default. Is this good for the world?

In this video, Jamie Turner explores one circumstance where this pervasive reactivity poses a challenge, and he builds one useful abstraction for taming over-reactivity and turning it back into a strength.

Sujay (@sujayakar314) walks through how easy it is to build a dynamic web app with global state on Convex. Join the Convex beta at https://convex.dev.
