05:37 PMFor eg: we would have had to write our own Raft library which is one thing to build but a whole other thing to run at scale, debug and ensure correctness of distributed systems. In the C/C++ ecosystem in contrast, teams have already built, battle tested and opensourced libraries for Raft, http, etc. So we’re able to stand on the shoulders of giants and we get to focus on the key pieces pieces for Typesense which is search.
