Veery Blog App - April 2015

Proposed idea. Yet another blog or web-based publishing tool. Best way for me to learn new concepts.

Existing apps:

• Junco - wiki and blog
• Kinglet - private web-based messaging that's part email and microblog
• Grebe
  • Grebe-Client-NodeJS
• Scaup

I think that I will call this new app Veery. It will be based upon Scaup.

I'll create separate git repositories for:

• Veery-API-Perl
• Veery-Client-Perl
• Veery-Client-NodeJS
• Veery-API-Go

The first three can created by borrowing from Scaup, Grebe, and Grebe-Client-NodeJS. The last one will give me a chance to learn some Golang.

The rest of the stack will remain the same:

• Nginx
• CouchDB
• Elasticsearch

The exception might be that I use Redis instead of Memcached. The reason: to use something different.

I used Redis for Grebe, but I was using the Perl code to read from Redis, instead of letting Nginx do it. That's because the Redis module was not installed by default for Nginx. The Nginx install came with the Memecached module.

I'll need to upgrade my Digital Ocean account to the $10 per month plan, so that I can increase RAM from 512 meg to 1 gig, which will permit me to run all the different services that I want to test.
