Your pipeline is the bottleneck. We dissect Docker layer caching, NVMe I/O impact, and private runner architecture to slash build times by 60%. Written for the post-Schrems II reality.
It is late 2020. Kubernetes has won the marketing war, but does your architecture actually require that level of complexity? We analyze the trade-offs between K8s, Docker Swarm, and HashiCorp Nomad, focusing on overhead, persistence, and why running these on compliant Norwegian NVMe VPS is critical for GDPR.
The EU-US Privacy Shield is dead. For Norwegian CTOs, the path forward involves strict data sovereignty and automated compliance auditing using OpenSCAP and Ansible. Here is how to build a fortress in 2020.
A battle-hardened look at K8s networking layers. We dissect CNI choices, move from iptables to IPVS, and solve the ingress problem on self-managed infrastructure without relying on cloud load balancers.
Uptime metrics lie. This guide cuts through the noise of standard monitoring, offering a battle-tested approach to Application Performance Monitoring (APM) using the ELK stack and Prometheus. Learn how to diagnose latency spikes, handle GDPR log compliance in Norway, and why underlying hardware performance is the hard limit of optimization.
Default configurations are the enemy of scale. We dissect the Linux kernel and Nginx settings required to handle 10k+ RPS without melting your CPU, specifically tailored for the Nordic infrastructure landscape.
Stop relying on passive uptime badges. Learn how to deploy a battle-hardened Prometheus and Grafana stack on NVMe storage to monitor what actually matters: latency, traffic, errors, and saturation.
Is your RTO under 15 minutes? If not, your disaster recovery plan is just a theory. We explore battle-tested strategies, Ansible automation, and why Norwegian data sovereignty is your safety net.
Forget the buzzwords. We break down practical Edge Computing implementation in 2020 using Nginx, MQTT, and Linux kernel tuning, specifically designed for the Norwegian network topology.
Is your application actually slow, or is it just the network? In this guide, we ditch the vanity metrics and build a robust monitoring stack using Prometheus, Grafana, and Linux system internals on high-performance NVMe infrastructure.
Monitoring tells you the server is up. Observability tells you why the API latency just spiked by 400ms. A 2020 guide for Nordic DevOps engineers on moving from "Green/Red" lights to deep system insights using Prometheus, ELK, and proper infrastructure.
Kubernetes networking is notorious for its complexity. We dissect CNI choices, the shift from iptables to IPVS, and how to tune your cluster for maximum throughput on bare-metal performance.
A battle-hardened guide to tuning Nginx and Linux kernels for high-throughput API gateways. We cover upstream keepalives, TLS 1.3 adoption, and why hardware isolation determines your tail latency.
It's late 2019, and if you are still relying on standard kube-proxy for network security, you are doing it wrong. We dive deep into implementing Cilium Network Policies to replace legacy iptables lists with high-performance eBPF, ensuring your Norwegian workloads stay compliant and fast.
Physics is the enemy. Discover practical Edge Computing strategies for 2019, from MQTT aggregation to custom Nginx caching nodes, specifically designed to bypass the latency penalty of centralized European clouds.
A deep dive into RTO/RPO strategies for Nordic infrastructure. Learn how to architect failover systems using MySQL replication, BorgBackup, and high-performance NVMe VPS solutions to ensure business continuity under GDPR.
Monoliths are safe. Microservices are chaos. Learn the battle-tested patterns (Gateway, Circuit Breaker, Discovery) to tame your distributed system, and why your infrastructure choice determines your survival.
Backups are static; recovery is dynamic. A pragmatic guide for CTOs on architecting resilience in the Norwegian market, ensuring GDPR compliance, and minimizing downtime with high-performance infrastructure.
Latency isn't just a metric; it's the barrier between a user and a bounce. We dive deep into Linux kernel tuning, Nginx upstream keepalives, and why NVMe I/O is non-negotiable for high-throughput API gateways in the Nordic market.
Moving from monolith to microservices introduces complexity. We explore battle-tested patterns like API Gateways, Circuit Breakers, and Service Discovery using NGINX and Consul, specifically tailored for the Norwegian hosting landscape.
Stop watching progress bars. We dissect I/O bottlenecks, network latency, and GDPR compliance in CI/CD pipelines, showing why your infrastructure choice matters more than your Jenkinsfile.
It is July 2018. Everyone wants Kubernetes, but few need the headache. We benchmark the big three orchestrators against the reality of latency, GDPR, and disk I/O.
With GDPR now enforced and public cloud costs spiraling, the "pay-as-you-go" myth is busting budgets across Norway. Here is a pragmatic architectural guide to cutting hosting costs by 40% without sacrificing IOPS or compliance.
With the GDPR deadline weeks away, running containers as root is no longer just bad practice—it's a liability. Here is the battle-hardened guide to locking down Docker on KVM infrastructure.
A battle-hardened guide to tuning your API Gateway for maximum throughput and minimal latency using 2017's best practices. From sysctl kernel tweaks to upstream keepalives, we dissect the stack.
When 'adding more RAM' stops working, you need a strategy. We dissect database sharding architectures relevant to high-traffic European workloads in 2017.
It is October 2016, and everyone is rushing to containerize. But default Docker settings are a security nightmare waiting to happen. Here is how to harden your stack using namespaces, capabilities, and KVM isolation.
Latency is the new downtime. As IoT and real-time apps explode, relying on a datacenter in Frankfurt or Virginia is a strategic error. Here is how to architect true edge performance using local VDS nodes, Nginx tuning, and MQTT aggregation.
Microservices solve the monolith problem but introduce network hell. Learn how to architect a battle-ready service discovery layer (the precursor to a service mesh) using Consul, HAProxy, and Docker on high-performance KVM instances.
Latency is the silent killer of user experience. With the recent Safe Harbor invalidation, hosting data inside Norway isn't just about speed—it's about survival. We explore technical strategies for localized 'edge' processing using KVM and Nginx.
