datalevin

Just curious, people here who are running Datalevin in production (which I realize may be a small number), are you using it in server or embedded mode?

We use it in embedded mode.

embedded, but currently considering server-mode for when we do a more general roll-out

Okay, this is nice to hear. I am using Datalevin as fairly simple web application DB—really nothing I couldn't do with PSQL or whatever, but I just like the ergonomics of Datalevin/Datalog much more than SQL. Was thinking of launching w/ embedded mode and then moving to server mode if/when that becomes necessary, but wondered if that was a risky move. Sounds like I will be in good company 🙂.

What risks? It is always possible to fallback from datalevin to postgres

i think they mean "would it be risky if I committed to embedded usage?/would swapping from embedded to server-usage be onerous+disruptive?"
