The Stripe minimum charge is currently $0.50. -----

marquis 1378 days ago According to their pricing at 2.9% + 30c per charge that leaves you with 18.55c. Paypal is 5% + $0.05, a massive 47.45c. If Stripe could even partially match that I'd be delighted. I'm currently looking into Amazon's aggregated option and haven't come up with numbers yet.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10213009/solr-vs-elasticsearch

http://stackshare.io/stackups/elasticsearch-vs-amazon-cloudsearch

CloudSearch has now switched to Solr.

Solr and ElasticSearech are ahead than AWS CloudSearch

Elasticsearch is a distributed RESTful search and analytics engine built on top of Apache Lucene.

Apache Solr is a web application built around Lucene with all kinds of goodies.

Solr is built around Lucene. It is not just a http-wrapper around Lucene but has been known toadd more arsenal to Lucene. Solr is ready-to-use out of box. It is a web application that offers infrastructure related and a lot more features in addition to what Lucene offers.

Evaluation of continuous Integration

last four days focussed on a end to end continuous integrated build and deploy solution

the flow will be

developer -> check in to github -> triggers build -> post build trigger test cases -> if test case successful deploys to ec2.

Advantage of hosted solution

1. consistent build using docker
2. Easy to add multiple builds like ios , android ,php, nodejs, .NET
3. Easy to deploy to multiple providers like codedeploy, s3, opsworks, npm .. etc (https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/deployment/)
4. Speedy builds 
5. Speedy integration and unit test
6. Build on multiple platform

https://www.distelli.com/ : good solution for build and deploy, very young startup

https://www.distelli.com/docs/tutorials/nodejs-build-test-and-deploy


- after trying all the software for our needs distelli is the clear winer

- it has a nice yaml file to describe build & deployment dependency
- I can easily deploy to my ec2 instance 

end to end project : https://github.com/sriram-alagappa/travistryout

https://travis-ci.org/; good for open source project and build, not good solution for deployment, big dady of all

https://codeship.com/ : average solution for deploy

https://circleci.com/ : average solution for deploy

Aws codedeploy : too hard will take time to mature

Aws ECS : too hard will take time to mature

Heroku : don't want to go with hosted solution now
