A Can of Shardines: SQLite Multitenancy With Rails

Julik Tarkhanov · A Can of Shardines: SQLite Multitenancy With RailsThere is a pattern I am very fond of - “one database per tenant” in web applications with multiple, isolated users. Recently, I needed to fix an application I had for a long time where this database-per-tenant multitenancy utterly broke down, because I was doing connection management wrong. Which begat the question: how do you even approach doing it right? And it turns out I was not alone in this. The most popular gem for multitenancy - Apartment - which I have even used in my failed startup back in the day - has the issue too. The culprit of does not handle multithreading very well is actually deeper. Way deeper. Doing runtime-defined multiple databases with Rails has only recently become less haphazard, and there are no tools either via gems or built-in that facilitate these flows. It has also accrued a ton of complexity, and also changes with every major Rails revision. TL;DR If you need to do database-per-tenant multitenancy with Rails or ActiveRecord right now - grab the middleware from this gist and move on. If you are curious about the genesis of this solution, strap in - we are going on a tour of a sizeable problem, and of an API of stature - the ActiveRecord connection management. Read on and join me on the ride! Many thanks to Kir Shatrov and Stephen Margheim for their help in this.

Other govt #databases contain secret #whistleblower data. At the Dept of #Veterans Affairs, you’ll find granular #MentalHealth info on fmr service members, including notes from #therapy sessions, details about #medication, & accounts of substance abuse. Govt agencies including the #IRS, #FBI, #DHS, & Dept of #Defense have all purchased #cellphone-#location data, & possibly collected them, via secretive groups such as the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency.

The federal govt is a veritable cosmos of #information, made up of constellations of #databases: The #IRS gathers comprehensive #financial & #employment info from every taxpayer; the Dept of Labor maintains the National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP) system, which collects the #personal info of many workers; #DHS amasses #data about the movements of every person who travels by air commercially or crosses the nation’s borders; the #DEA tracks license plates scanned on American roads.
Hackaday: Abusing DuckDB-WASM To Create Doom In SQL. “In a twist, [Patrick Trainer] had the idea to use SQL instead of JS to do the heavy lifting of the Doom game loop. Backed by the Web ASM version of the analytical DuckDB database software, a Doom-lite clone was coded that demonstrates the principle that anything in life can be captured in a spreadsheet or database application.”

Data security isn't sexy, I'll give you that. But in this climate, knowing how to do a backup of your database and storing it somewhere safe might be crucial to make sure what you know about your collection is preserved for future generations.

Database Protocols Are Underwhelming

byroot’s blog · Database Protocols Are UnderwhelmingIf you’ve been in this trade for a while, you have probably seen dozens of debates on the merits and problems of SQL as a relational database query language. As an ORM maintainer, I have a few gripes with SQL, but overall it is workable, and anyway, it has so much inertia that there’s no point fantasizing about a replacement.
