Latency is the new downtime. We analyze why routing traffic to Frankfurt is killing your app's performance in Norway and how to deploy high-performance edge nodes using 2020's best practices.
It is March 2020. Traffic is surging. Do you know why your API latency just spiked? We dismantle the 'black box' of server performance using Prometheus, Grafana, and raw Linux utilities, explaining why hardware isolation is the only metric that truly matters.
Moving from Monolith to Microservices isn't just about Docker; it's about surviving distributed failure. We break down essential patterns—API Gateways, Circuit Breakers, and Saga—implemented on high-performance infrastructure secure under Norwegian law.
A battle-hardened comparison of container orchestrators. We analyze complexity, resource overhead, and why your underlying infrastructure (IOPS) determines success or failure in production.
Public cloud runners are strangling your deployment velocity. Learn how we cut build times by 60% using self-hosted GitLab Runners on NVMe-backed VPS infrastructure in Norway.
Monitoring tells you the server is up. Observability tells you why the checkout API failed for user #402. We bridge the gap using the ELK stack, Prometheus, and NVMe-backed infrastructure.
Stop relying on users to report downtime. This battle-tested guide covers deploying Prometheus and Grafana on high-performance NVMe VPS, managing false positives, and ensuring data residency compliance in Norway.
