Oscar Merry talks about powering a social podcasting app, Fountain, using SurrealDB. He discusses how he was able to simplify his tech stack, replacing Neo4j and MeiliSearch with SurrealDB to power querying and full-text search across the app.

This is part of our SurrealDB social events series, filmed live in London, where we discuss the latest updates, releases and features of SurrealDB. For future events, see here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/surrea...
