While I am here I might as well ask my question:
Hey so I am trying out railyway for the first time and trying to stand up essentially this:
https://github.com/provectus/kafka-ui
I have it working locally already and the logs look pretty similar but when I visit the site:
https://kafka-ui.animepics.xyz/
I just get a 503. I also added the health check endpoint and it is failing.
show me the railway logs for that service?
youre not gonna have much luck running that on railway, it wants persistent storage, and railway doesn’t have persistent storage yet
huh is it trying to write files to the host? I don't see anything like that in the logs
I believe when it says "DYNAMIC_CONFIG_ENABLED" it is talking about dynamically changing kafka
sorry, misspoke, I meant in the service variables
okay that worked! Does that tell railway to expose that port?
yeah something like that, let's railway know what port it should forward traffic to and from
ah okay. I will keep that in mind for other apps since sometimes I just have the port hardcoded myself.
Specifically for free tier, if I am not actually on the site, will my usage credits still be used?
hey brody i want to try and move a more complicated app onto railway
It would need to connect to postgres and redis
Ideally I would have them all in the same data center, but when i create a postgres app i am only giving the external url. Is there a way to get the internal url?
also how can i see details about the redis/postgres offering?
Like what is the cpu/mem/connections? is it serverless?
Railway’s storage options aren’t incredibly robust atm, we recommend using a different platform for databases.
The same restrictions apply for all services. 8vCPU, 8GB RAM, 100GB storage on the dev plan
not sure about connections limits. They are not serverless iirc
okay thanks for letting me know. I was having a hard time finding details about it.
Also if you’re responding to someone in a thread more than a few days old, be sure to ping or reply to them. Otherwise they likely won’t see it
I will consider using redis still as i am not using it for persistence but i will go elsewhere for postgres haha
Gotcha, good luck!
oh adam, i see everything
they are all in the same region, you are only given a public domain to connect to because railway does not support internal networking at the moment
and i think between that and adams answers, that answers everything?
Yeah everything is working out pretty well when testing redis locally.
Just a heads up, when i ssh into the redis session and run "info" it tells me that there are max "10,000" connections. which is a lot.
okay so i do have another question @runic heart haha.
So it seems like redis is in oregon given that it is us-west-2. Not sure where my deployed nextjs app is. I am guessing it uses a cdn so is in a bunch of different places? Anyway my backend server is in us-east-2. Wondering if there is a way to designate what VPC/data center a service is brought up in
