A general-purpose sync engine for instantaneous web apps. Try it out: https://t.co/qeg3hmBtSy.
When we started Zero, we weren’t even sure there _was_ a correct design for the kind of query-based sync engine we dreamed of. We spent two years finding that design, then hardening it for production use. We always imagined a hosted version too, because (a) running a sync server is never going to be fun 😅, and (b) gotta make money! Starting late last year, we were finally able to begin work on that hosted version. Initially it was invite-only and small, but we're now in production and syncing thousands of messages per minute for teams like @productlane, @passionfroot, and @shipper_crm. Cloud Zero is production-grade Zero hosting from the team that built it: - no servers to run or maintain - 24/7 monitoring and alerts - automatic zero-downtime updates - fast NVMe-based architecture - run as traditional SaaS or in your own AWS account We’re onboarding manually, but it’s quick. And if you’re already self-hosting Zero, we’ll help migrate your setup. Get started today at: zerosync.dev/cloud
Last year, Productlane turned painfully slow for customers with huge workspaces. So we made a plan to not only quick-fix the problem, but implement a proper sync engine and make Productlane the fastest customer support tool on the market. It took us almost 6 months as it meant rebuilding the entire backend, but it was really worth it. We moved from Replicache to @zero__ms, a new kind of sync engine built by @aboodman and team, who helped hands-on in our codebase. Today Productlane is instant, even for our largest customers. It's the reason why we're growing really well and more and more customers are using and loving our product. We wrote an article about how we made this transition: productlane.com/blog/zero-migr…
