In this post, we will use React Native, Serverless framework and Upstash to develop a mobile application for viewing and updating a leaderboard.
We will use React Native to develop the mobile application backed by the Serverless framework, which consists of Python functions running on AWS Lambda.
In this post, we will create a waiting room for your Next.js application using Vercel Edge functions and Upstash Redis.
You can check the source code and the demo app.
The waiting room is useful when you want to limit the number of active visitors to your website so as not to overload your resources.
In our implementation, you will be able to set a maximum number of active visitors. There will two parameters to control the traffic:
In this post, we will write a simple application which will run on Fastly Compute@Edge. The application will access Upstash Redis to keep track of page views.
Edge Computing is one of the most exciting trends in recent years. CDN services like Cloudflare and Fastly started to enable users to run their applications on their edge infrastructure. This helps developers to build globally distributed, high performance applications.
If you ever had to build an app that tracks the application usage, restrict resources utilisation or fetch data from the cache to increase app performance, then you would know that Redis is the answer to these requirements! Redis is in-memory, key-value database. It is open source and it stands for Remote Dictionary Server.
In this article, we are going to discuss Upstash, Redis database and the recent beta release of Vue SSR framework, Nuxt 3. This is a beginner friendly article that explores Redis database, where we will build basic app that tracks page-visits of a Nuxt app.
Welcome to part 2 of this tutorial series. In the first part, we saw how to build a REST API using Upstash, Serverless Framework, and Redis.
In this part, we'll build a mobile application using Flutter, to consume our REST API endpoints.
Let's get started 🙃
In this post, we'll be building a serverless mobile application with Flutter, Serverless Framework,Upstash and Redis for storing data.
In this blog post, we will implement a waiting room page for your website.
High number of visitors on your website is a good thing generally but not always. Sudden high traffic may easily overwhelm your applications which may disrupt your services completely. Waiting room is a solution that helps you to control the traffic and protect your resources during traffic surges. Cloudflare Waiting Room is a good solution but it is only available for business and enterprise accounts. Don’t worry, in this blog we will build a waiting room for any type of web site using Cloudflare Workers and Upstash Redis.
Today, the Vercel team announced the Next.js Edge functions. Edge functions allow developers to run their code at the servers distributed globally. This means your code will be executed at the location that is closest to your user. You can think of edge functions as the serverless functions which are run at the CDN infrastructure. Edge functions have the following advantages:
Upstash started its journey with a mission to be the best database option for your AWS Lambda functions. Meanwhile, we discovered another great option to build your serverless functions: Cloudflare Workers. It is an exciting product because it promises a better latency all over the world with a lower cost and no cold starts. But it has many limitations when compared to AWS Lambda. Extra limitations makes the list of database options shorter. We saw this as an opportunity to position Upstash as a great solution for the question: CF Workers are stateless. Where should I keep my data then?
