Iitsmatteomanf 2GB...? Like the size is the size of an equivalent SQLite DB.

Befus•2/19/24, 10:24 PM

hahaha, I must of badly worded this, I meant as like how much rows would that store etc or how big of an application would that be fit for? An estimate or range ofcourse

Befus•2/19/24, 10:26 PM

Or what happens if I do reach that limit I should say

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:31 PM

That really depends on the application. I have a table storing 10+ million rows, but it's not much data. It really depends.

BBefus Or what happens if I do reach that limit I should say

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:31 PM

You'd get an error for max size reached. You can have multiple DBs to each Worker, btw. So you can shard things.

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:34 PM

Yes, exactly. I'd split per area of concern and not literally shard the same table, if possible.

Befus•2/19/24, 10:35 PM

Could you explain this? I'm not really familiar

Unsmart•2/19/24, 10:35 PM

An example would be a database per user. All a single customers data would be on their own DB with their own limits and you dont need to query anything but their own DB to get their data

Befus•2/19/24, 10:37 PM

Damn this might be ideal for my use case, I've got "organisations" so that way each organisation could have their own db damn! Thank you, just gotta figure out how to make it now lmao

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:38 PM

Yeah, the main issue currently (but it's been mentioned they are working on a fix) is having the binding attached to the DB, as each org/db would be it's own binding and you cann't dynamically allocate them

Iitsmatteomanf Yeah, the main issue currently (but it's been mentioned they are working on a fi...

Befus•2/19/24, 10:39 PM

Oh so not really an option at the moment or how should I look at that?

BBefus Oh so not really an option at the moment or how should I look at that?

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:42 PM

There are ways, but there are limits... you can statically bind them, but it doesn't scale that well now, unofrtunately

Befus•2/19/24, 10:43 PM

Hmm you will probably hear from me again, just figuring out how I approach this

BBefus Hmm you will probably hear from me again, just figuring out how I approach this

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:48 PM

Do also consider you can use other products at the same time, you don't have to store blobs or JSON in the db if you don't need it in a query. KV, R2, etc. exist.

Befus•2/19/24, 10:50 PM

Well the situation is a bit like this, we were currently using KV but we are moving towards a platform meaning if we fetch for example users we would get everyones users, making it slower, etc. Thats why I thought a SQL type database would help. Not sure though

BBefus Well the situation is a bit like this, we were currently using KV but we are mov...

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:51 PM

Oh yeah, it definitely would. But not all user data needs to live on the db

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:51 PM

Also, D1 isn't yet GA, while it's supposedly close-ish, it's still not fully production ready, technically.

Befus•2/19/24, 10:52 PM

Yea I'm aware but willing to take/accept that risk

Iitsmatteomanf Oh yeah, it definitely would. But not all user data needs to live on the db 🙂

Befus•2/19/24, 10:54 PM

What things would you not put on the db but on other service for example, i'm aware of objects/files I was planning on using cloudflare images/R2 but maybe you have some suggestions?

BBefus What things would you not put on the db but on other service for example, i'm aw...

itsmatteomanfOP•2/19/24, 10:56 PM

That really depends on the data you have, you need to look at the data you have and the requirements for your application

BBefus Ah you mentioned that there were ways I thought lmao

itsmatteomanfOP•2/20/24, 8:54 AM

No, there are ways around the limitation

Befus•2/20/24, 8:54 AM

Ohhhh lol

itsmatteomanfOP•2/20/24, 8:57 AM

I do really hope they will fix the limitation at the root, though, it's the biggest D1 issue at the moment

itsmatteomanfOP•2/20/24, 8:57 AM

Secondarily I'd hope for read replicas, but tbh it's secondary.

Befus•2/20/24, 9:03 AM

Im thinking of a way I could somehow dynamicly allocate maybe by using KV or smth but don't know if its possible in any way

No, unless you are willing to go via the HTTP API, which is painfully slow

Befus•2/20/24, 9:49 AM

Just thinking out loud here but if I were to create the database manually before hand, when in my case a new organisation register check for the first empty database and assign that way. You reckon that would be possible?

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/20/24, 9:57 AM

Maybe, but that would only work for the first N databases

are there no tools compatible with d1 ? datagrip, tableplus, or anything?

does worker use TCP for D1 or HTTP? like does it count as an outgoing request?

Does D1 have this types of limitations because of SQLite? https://twitter.com/heyandras/status/1758940021640274148?t=1C0_ZdZ4JytNJItZrMJcwg&s=19

The only case when Sqlite is not suitable for your project, is when more than one server/instance of your app needs to access the database.

Your app is probably not in this category.

Bbun does worker use TCP for D1 or HTTP? like does it count as an outgoing request?

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/20/24, 10:21 AM

It uses something internally, which afaik isn't quite TCP or HTTP

bun•2/20/24, 10:25 AM

so queries dont count as outgoign requests?

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/20/24, 10:25 AM

Not quite, since the D1 Layer that is on top of SQLite handles simultaneous connections. It can't actually process multiple requests simultaneously, but it can store requests in a queue. I would note too that while you can use D1 outside of Cloudflare, it isn't meant to be used that way, and thus it is a bit unergonomic

Bbun so queries dont count as outgoign requests?

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/20/24, 10:26 AM

They do. No matter the underlying protocol, an outgoing I/O op is counted as a "request"(though opening a TCP socket is a single connection, even if you do multiple things with it)

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/20/24, 10:26 AM

TCP is the only special snowflake, at least at the moment

Júlio Mühlbauer•2/20/24, 10:28 AM

Is there some limitations on scalability compared to a postgres database? It would be cool to see this type of thing on the docs. Thanks!
