I'm not 100% sure but isn't it about focusing more on customer value instead of churning out features no one uses? So in summary:
- Output: what you produce, the features, bugfixes, documentation whatever
- Outcome: the actual value for the stakeholders. You could build one hugely important feature which would make the stakeholders love you but the output is still just 1.
Exactly. And outcome for many companies typically boils down to either an increase in revenue, or an increase in cost savings - but normally we use proxies for measuring those (like number of new sign ups, or decrease in churn, increase in CSAT etc).
It astounds me how many companies I’ve witnessed that loose sight of this and end up building feature after feature without even knowing if it’s having a positive (or negative!) impact.
I really like this approach, but a challenge I’ve encountered is successfully trying to measure that outcome and attribute it to the changes (outputs) that your team is making- either because their might be some lead time between output and outcome, or because you’re in a large organization with so many other teams making changes that might also be impacting the outcome you’re aiming to achieve.
It's mainly about showing Cypress (which is something like Selenium or Playwright or what have you) but integrates it into a real world example with commonly used tools and frameworks.
Mind sharing these other alternatives of Redis you are talking about?
There's also Redis Streams. Do any of these alternatives have similar streaming features or are there any other databases that are lightweight (instead of going full on Kafka)?
And some which are kinda dead but still interesting -- redis is the kind of workload that does actually become feature complete so these are still usable in my mind though maybe not first choice:
I'm planning on doing a comparison with these at some point, because they're fascinating (all these projects go off in subtly different directions, I'll spare you the details), but here's a recent comparison someone else did:
Basically, redis compatibility is like step 1 for any KVS that wants to seem at least a little usable/real-world-focused so you get so many cool entrants.
I don't really personally keep up with redis for the stream use-case -- it's a great use for redis but that doesn't really make/break for me usually.
- Not WebGL, there are just some "canvas" draw functions.
- Source is not public currently.
- Just jQuery
- Game is desktop only, based on 32x32 sprites, there is an option to scale though if you are on a high resolution display.
