Diagrid Catalyst - The fastest way to write reliable and portable microservices

Catalyst gives developers a powerful, all-in-one set of APIs to build distributed applications, so you can stop hacking together fragmented libraries and focus on the code that matters. Integrates with your infrastructure and powered by open-source Dapr.

Exciting launch and some great coverage in TechCrunch as a compliment! “Catalyst is why we founded Diagrid in the first place,” @mark_fussell said. “It’s the very reason because we saw a vision that this complexity and difficulty for developers to build these microservices and distributed applications was not being solved. All the major clouds are still focusing on infrastructure and that’s what they do. They have a really hard time thinking about the application developer space, and then they sort of leave it as an exercise to the reader, as it were, to stitch it all together.”

Can I use this from Vercel? Looks like it'll make my life a lot easier

Hi @yaron2 and congrats on the launch! Just a quick question: how do you ensure a smooth learning curve for any developer that wants to integrate with it?

@neolocus Thanks for the comment. We've put quickstarts in place that include an end-to-end working sample for integrating with Catalyst, including provisioning of resources if you're an AWS developer. We'll be adding more quickstarts and also specific code snippets targeted at specific scenarios in the future. If you have any ideas, would love to hear them

Congrats on the launch of Catalyst! 🎉 As a fellow software engineer, I can truly appreciate the value of having an all-in-one set of APIs to build distributed applications. The integration with existing infrastructure and the power of open-source Dapr make this tool a game-changer. The ability to streamline development processes, eliminate boilerplate code, and focus on business logic is a huge win. The features like global service discovery, state management, and end-to-end tracing sound incredibly useful. Plus, the security enhancements and workflow programming model are just icing on the cake. Can't wait to dive in and see how Catalyst can simplify and accelerate my development workflows. Kudos to the team for bringing this to life! 🚀
