Backups are not a strategy; recovery is. A battle-hardened guide to designing disaster recovery plans for Norwegian infrastructure, focusing on RTO, local compliance, and avoiding the 'OVH scenario'.
Why Norwegian CTOs are shifting from public cloud functions to self-hosted architectures like OpenFaaS on NVMe VDS to tackle Schrems II compliance and eliminate cold-start latency.
Monitoring tells you the server is up. Observability tells you why the checkout is slow for users in Bergen. A deep dive into modern stacks (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry) and why data sovereignty in Norway matters more than ever.
Latency isn't just a metric; it's a liability. We explore real-world edge computing use cases in Norway, from IoT data aggregation to GDPR-compliant caching, and why deploying closer to the Norwegian Internet Exchange (NIX) is the smart architectural move.
With the USD/NOK exchange rate volatile and energy prices soaring, the 'pay-as-you-go' model is becoming a liability. Here is a pragmatic technical guide to cutting cloud overhead without sacrificing IOPS or compliance.
