While Silicon Valley hypes 'Fog Computing', Norwegian sysadmins know the reality: physics always wins. Here is how to architect distributed Linux nodes for sub-10ms latency using Nginx, Varnish, and local KVM instances.
Is your application lagging? Stop blaming the code immediately. Learn how to diagnose the real bottlenecks using 2014's best profiling tools, interpret Nginx logs like a sysadmin, and why 'Steal Time' might be the reason you need to migrate your VPS to Norway today.
Is your application hanging during peak traffic? Stop blaming the code blindly. We dig into iostat, strace, and PHP-FPM logs to find the real bottlenecks in your stack.
Stop rebooting and start diagnosing. A battle-hardened guide to debugging application latency using strace, vmstat, and log analysis on the Linux command line.
Stop relying on default Nagios configs. A battle-hardened guide to monitoring high-traffic Linux clusters, debugging I/O latency, and why pure SSD storage is the only way to scale in 2013.
Command line tools like 'top' only tell half the story. In this deep dive, we explore how to build a robust APM stack using Graphite and StatsD to diagnose bottlenecks before your Norwegian users experience latency.
Is the Apache memory footprint killing your server uptime? We benchmark the industry standard against the lightweight contender, Lighttpd, to see which web server architecture handles high-concurrency loads on European networks.
RAID is not a backup. In this deep dive, we script bulletproof disaster recovery solutions using rsync, Cron, and encryption, tailored for Norwegian compliance standards in 2012.
Is your "scalable" cloud instance stalling on database queries? In 2011, the bottleneck isn't CPU—it's Disk I/O. We analyze the latency crisis in virtualized storage and why local SSD RAID is the only viable path for high-performance hosting in Norway.
It is 2011, and the cloud buzzword is everywhere. But if you are running high-load databases on standard VPS hosting, you are likely suffering from the 'noisy neighbor' effect. Here is how to diagnose disk latency and why local RAID-10 beats cheap SANs.
RAID is not a backup. Stop relying on luck and manual tarballs. Here is the battle-hardened guide to automating disaster recovery on Linux systems using rsync, encryption, and offsite storage in compliance with Norwegian data laws.
RAID is not a backup. Stop relying on manual tarballs and learn how to implement automated, rotating, off-site backups using rsync and MySQL best practices on CentOS and Debian systems. Essential reading for compliance with Norwegian data laws.
