Transloadit Blog

When we first learned about Zapier, we were immediately excited. Zapier lets you take the output of one service (a newly received email, for instance) and then use that for the input of a second service (saving records in a Google sheet). It already allows you to do this for thousands of services. It is somewhat like IFTTT but for businesses, and one of the plus sides is that it does not require a phone to orchestrate. We think it's not a stretch to say that what Transloadit is to files, Zapier is to API services. And that likely explains why the power of Zapier resonates so much with our crew.

We recently shared the news with you that we now support resumable file uploads in production – powered by tus – and that we'll gradually be rolling out support for it in our SDKs as well.

Even though we're a bit late, seeing as the two newest Transloadians have already been with us for a few months now, we didn't want to pass up on the opportunity to have you meet the latest additions to the Transloadit team. While we already had the chance to get acquainted during our recent trip to Berlin, we realized that we still owe you a proper introduction as well.

Transloadit is a company without an office. Our team is spread all across the globe and while we have a dedicated #watercooler channel in Slack, it can’t always beat the real thing: catching up with your co-workers in person and finding out what is going on in their lives. For that reason, Transloadit places a high value on our yearly team meetups, where we fly everyone in to a central location, in part to have the opportunity to do some work while being in the same room for a change, but perhaps even more importantly to make sure everyone can become more than just an avatar and a name in a digital chat environment.

And the SDKs keep rolling in! 😄 Yet again, we are proudly announcing another official SDK release. Guess who is joining our list this time around? (HINT: 🐍)

Our team has just concluded a great 2017 meetup in Berlin where besides having some fun, our goal has been nailing the Uppy Transloadit integration and making it that much more reliable. Specifically, we wanted to survive a browser crash, letting the user pick up where he left off.

At Transloadit, it is our desire to give you the best possible encoding experience, and one of the main factors involved is making sure that we are using the latest encoding tools.

We recently encountered a bug in our data usage calculation which has affected the invoices of 25% of our customers for the month of June. As a result of this bug, between June 15 and June 30, Transloadit mistakenly counted every byte towards the usage of affected customers twice.

We meant it when we said that there was some exciting news coming up about our SDKs and to prove that, we'd like to give you a taste of what we have in store.
