OpenReplay is much more mature and full-featured, RePlaya is just the core session capture, listing, and replay functionality. OpenReplay has more dependencies, so self-hosting means running a full stack: Postgres, ClickHouse, Redis, and it

Thanks! And agreed, session replays can be really useful to understand user behaviour such as product edge cases. On cost, it's running the collector Node app (I'd expect a few $ per month at low volume), and the S2 stream backend

I agree that future seems inevitable. We work on plumbing for that, s2.dev - would be very happy to collaborate.

We run a copy using https://github.com/gabe565/ascii-movie , you can `nc starwars.s2.dev 23` It's our favorite way of demoing s2.dev, https://x.com/jrdi/status/2014318511120670859

> Personally I'd add an application level hash to protect the integrity of the records but that's just me. The durability is for being able to replay the stream, a hash will not let you reconstruct the original message(s). If y

Yes, that is a reasonable way to think about it! And as s2-lite is designed as a single-node system, there is a natural source of truth on what the latest records are for consuming in real-time.

> Can this be used as an embedded lib instead of a separate binary as an API? Did not architect explicitly for that, but should be viable. You could use the `Backend` directly, is what the REST handlers call https://docs.rs&#x

Very cool! Looking forward to catching up. Also checkout https://s2.dev/blog/kv-store

We wanted S2 to be one API. Started out with gRPC, added REST - then realized REST is what is absolutely essential and what most folks care about. gRPC did give us bi-directional streaming for append/read sessions, so we added that as

> Is this for like "making your own Twitch" or something, where streams have to scale to thousands-to-millions of consumers? Yes, this can be a good building block for broadcasting data streams. s2-lite is single node, so to sc

This is fair question. A stream here == a log. Every write with S2 implementations is durable before it is acknowledged, and it can be consumed in real-time or replayed from any position by multiple readers. The stream is at the granularity

It seems SL8 supports writing the WAL to local disk already https://github.com/slatedb/slatedb/issues/162 Will look into how to enable that option from s2-lite

Shoutout to CodesInChaos for suggesting that instead of a mere emulator, should have an actually durable open source implementation – that is what we ended up building with s2-lite! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42487

Very cool! Would you consider making the streaming backend pluggable? s2.dev could make a lot of sense as a serverless option, and a self-hostable OSS implementation of the API is also coming soon. S2 is great for agent session-level stream

It seemed like the kind of Jepsen outcome where folks would be considering alternatives, but yeah maybe it was not appropriate to plug here.

Postgres is a way better fit than Kafka if you want a large number of durable streams. But a flexible OLTP database like PG is bound to require more resources and polling loops (not even long poll!) are not a great answer for following live

Yes, currently it has its own /fetch endpoint that then makes S3 GET(s) internally. One potential gotcha depending on how you are using it, an exact byte "Range" header is always required so that the request can be mapped to
