I have

In a reallllly roundabout way you could probably make passthrough Worker that acts as an S3 endpoint, and then use the Workers Analytics Engine to log

Ddave you'll see if a cache miss happened in the log stream

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:02 PM

Yeah, was thinking about that too, but that assumes I'm doing requests

Ddave copy pasted from a private channel (my own message/answer to be clear lol). re:...

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:03 PM

Tried that one too, but it's like they say in docs. Deleting cached asset may take up to 20sec. And if I refresh instantly after cache clear request has recieved, assets will still be cached
If I wait 10s, then it's 50/50. Sometimes still have to wait 20s for all assets to actually be cleared from cache

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:05 PM

But cache clearing isn't instant

So refresh happens before actual cache clearing

Unsmart•7/5/23, 10:08 PM

cache clearing will never be instant it has to clear from hundreds of data centers

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:09 PM

Yeah, I'm OK with that. If I'd get callback, when was it actually cleared from everywhere. So I'm not waiting blindly

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:09 PM

Or per datacenter or however

Unsmart•7/5/23, 10:10 PM

Why does it matter?

Unsmart•7/5/23, 10:10 PM

removing the cache is just we will eventually try to clear it if we can

Unsmart•7/5/23, 10:11 PM

If cache is messing things up you might wanna try setting a lower cache value

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:12 PM

Dealing with rather complex real-time datafeed, which needs to re-pull new JS files from CDN
Getting milions of requests per second to those JS files at peak times, so no-cache is not an option in production and it has to be cached 100% for global coverage
But at the same time, pulling down updated JS file more than 3-5sec late, is quite bad for business

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:13 PM

Working around some legacy business decisions too.. Can't just directly feed data to client sadly. Had to do pile of hacks to get that somewhat working, but coz of legacy reasons and size constraints have to pull in new JS files and force refresh parent iframe

dave•7/5/23, 10:29 PM

Do you control the client software at all?

Ddave Do you control the client software at all?

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:30 PM

Jup, but it's huge thing, getting changes thro there is rather long and tedious process

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:32 PM

But I think for proof-of-concept demo, I'll go cacheless and if things go well, then before production can hopefully figure out and do some changes to client software that would allow direct updating from WS connection

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:38 PM

It's basically single .js file Vue application, that needs to take data from parent page, that gets it's data from live feed. Tricky part is, that so far all the data has been baked into that JS file at delivery time, so it's huge change architecturally to change it now

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:40 PM

^ Tool for ad delivery networks and agencies

dave•7/5/23, 10:40 PM

Why is serving a 5-10 second out of date file so bad?

Erisa•7/5/23, 10:47 PM

Ordinarily you would see the .js file keyed by a hash in the filename (e.g. script.abcdef.js) and then the html page specifies which one to load, so when you purge cache it updates the html page to point to the new js but the old js stays around for those on the old html

Ddave Why is serving a 5-10 second out of date file so bad?

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:47 PM

Update needs to happen within some seconds max. File itself could be older actually. But since right now only way to get data in is update file, that needs to be updated
From business side, it's bad if your betting data is 10sec late and decisions are made based on that

Erisa•7/5/23, 10:48 PM

For live updates you should 100% be using a websocket

EErisa Ordinarily you would see the .js file keyed by a hash in the filename (e.g. scri...

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:48 PM

Aah, that's actually interesting idea. Currently hashes are rather random. But could make them kinda guessable. So script within HTML can try to "guess" next hash and ping that every x time

Erisa•7/5/23, 10:49 PM

Not quite what I had in mind but for your use case that.. might work? Maybe?

Yeah.. Dealing with legacy stuff.. Trying to figure out faster workarounds

EErisa Not quite what I had in mind but for your use case that.. might work? Maybe?

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:50 PM

So instead of random hashes I'd have like

myfile.v1.js

myfile.v1.js

myfile.v2.js

myfile.v2.js

myfile.v3.js

myfile.v3.js

etc

MMcSneaky So instead of random hashes I'd have like `myfile.v1.js`, `myfile.v2.js`, `myfil...

Erisa•7/5/23, 10:51 PM

Erisa•7/5/23, 10:51 PM

I've seen that done with some success

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:52 PM

Noice. Thnx for discussions!
I can do redirects thro API all good

And that will work in production long enuf until I (or someone else) figure out how to update client side legacy code to support WS directly

Erisa•7/5/23, 10:53 PM

websockets are OP for live updates, its how your discord client is showing all our messages in realtime

dave•7/5/23, 10:54 PM

This is a guess:

Put these headers on the redirected

myfile.latest.js

myfile.latest.js

cache-control: private, no-transform, no-cache, no-store, max-age=0, s-maxage=0

cache-control: private, no-transform, no-cache, no-store, max-age=0, s-maxage=0

And these headers on

myfile.v*.js

myfile.v*.js

cache-control: private, immutable, no-transform, max-age=31536000, s-maxage=31536000

cache-control: private, immutable, no-transform, max-age=31536000, s-maxage=31536000

You should change

private

private

public

public

if these files aren't custom per-user.

dave•7/5/23, 10:56 PM

personally I would recommend using this for the redirect:

https://cdn.example.com/js/@teamname/productname@latest/index.js

https://cdn.example.com/js/@teamname/productname@latest/index.js

And like this for the versioned files:

https://cdn.example.com/js/@teamname/productname@1.2.3/index.js

https://cdn.example.com/js/@teamname/productname@1.2.3/index.js

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 10:59 PM

We were using WS, that was many years ago. We weren't using Cloudflare nor did Cloudflare support websockets. Then at some point we got 250k new WS connections per second, peaking at about 10-15m. Ofc our servers died under that (each connection had to deal with quite some DB reads and writes etc). We were estimating scale of about 300 concurrent connections..

So I got the idea of bundling it all into JS files, since we really didn't need that much of an realtime
Now times have changed and we need realtime again.. But team who made move from WS to bundled JS isn't around anymore, so it's rather interesting digging.. I kinda know what should be there in codebase, but not too sure. It's been over 3y since I worked on that codebase. For all that time it had 5 people on it full-time, so it's been totally rewritten about 2-3 times for sure

Erisa•7/5/23, 11:00 PM

nor did Cloudflare support websockets

dang, that must have been quite some time ago

Erisa•7/5/23, 11:01 PM

blog says they were supported in 2014

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 11:02 PM

For our use-case we needed (and still need) connection to go to workers, but workers weren't a thing then. Now with durable objects it became possible to move it all to CF

McSneakyOP•7/5/23, 11:06 PM

It's in dev plan, when we get to it is other thing..
Other thing in dev plan is getting really good deal from CF for 10b worker requests to run some AI models on the edge

Erisa•7/5/23, 11:08 PM

by my rough maths, 10 bil workers bundled reqs on paygo plan would be like $5,000 or so

dave•7/5/23, 11:09 PM

that's less than payroll for most folks (in the US anyway)

Erisa•7/5/23, 11:10 PM
