Show HN: Ayder Crash Sandbox – SIGKILL durability proof (per-visitor container)
ayder.xyz
Most durability demos are “trust me”: a blog post, a benchmark chart, or a unit test.
This is a live sandbox that tries to make durability auditable.
Every visitor gets:
a dedicated Docker container (no shared state with other visitors)
a dedicated persistent volume mounted at /data
Click “Run double proof” and it does:
Produce N events
Hard-kill the process with a real SIGKILL (docker kill -s KILL)
Restart the container (docker start)
Consume from offset=0 → should return N (no loss)
Commit offsets (Ayder commits “last processed”; resume starts at committed+1)
Consume again with the same group → should return 0 (no duplicates)
The UI shows pass/fail, but also exposes the raw proof JSON and “Docker Forensics” (inspect + docker events + logs tail) so you can verify the kill/die/replay yourself.
I’m curious: what other failure modes would you want a demo like this to cover (disk full, host reboot, partial writes, etc.)?
