Your build server is the bottleneck. In the wake of the Safe Harbor invalidation, we analyze how moving Jenkins slaves to NVMe-backed KVM instances in Norway not only solves compliance headaches but crushes build times by 40%.
Vertical scaling has a ceiling. When your MySQL master starts choking on IOPS, it's time to shard. We explore practical strategies for partitioning data while keeping latency low and staying compliant with Norwegian data laws.
With the recent invalidation of Safe Harbor and the explosion of container adoption, default Docker configurations are a liability. We analyze kernel isolation, capability dropping, and why running containers on KVM-based VPS is the only sane choice for Norwegian data.
With the recent EU court ruling invalidating Safe Harbor, your Disaster Recovery strategy isn't just about backups—it's about data sovereignty. Here is a battle-tested technical guide to replicating MySQL and assets to Norwegian soil.
With the recent ECJ ruling invalidating Safe Harbor, your disaster recovery plan needs a legal update as much as a technical one. Here is how to architect failover systems that keep data strictly within Norway.
Monolithic architectures are dying, but microservices introduce a new nightmare: networking complexity. Learn how to architect a robust service communication layer (the precursor to a service mesh) using Consul, HAProxy, and Docker on high-performance infrastructure.
With the recent fall of Safe Harbor, data sovereignty is critical. We dissect practical Docker security hardening, from dropping kernel capabilities to ensuring true isolation with KVM.
Sharding is a last resort, not a feature. We explore architectural patterns for scaling MySQL and PostgreSQL horizontally, specifically tailored for the Norwegian infrastructure landscape post-Safe Harbor.
Is it a code memory leak or just oversold hosting? We break down the ELK stack, CPU steal time, and why the recent Safe Harbor ruling makes hosting in Oslo critical for performance and compliance.
Microservices solve code complexity but introduce network chaos. Learn how to implement a robust service discovery layer using Consul, HAProxy, and rock-solid KVM infrastructure to keep your distributed system from collapsing.
Is your API gateway choking on concurrent connections? We dive into kernel-level tuning, the brand new HTTP/2 protocol, and why the recent Safe Harbor invalidation makes local Norwegian hosting the only smart technical choice.
Microservices solve scalability but create a networking nightmare. With the recent invalidation of Safe Harbor, hosting your service architecture on local Norwegian infrastructure is no longer just an option—it's a necessity. Here is how to architect a fault-tolerant service communication layer using Nginx, Consul, and Docker.
With the EU Safe Harbor ruling invalidating US data transfers, hosting your build pipeline in Norway is no longer optional—it's survival. We dive into the Jenkins Workflow plugin (the future 2.0 standard) to replace fragile UI configurations with robust code.
Stop blaming the code when the infrastructure is choking. We analyze the late-2015 APM landscape, from ELK stack configurations to debugging CPU steal time on virtual servers, ensuring your Norwegian user base gets the latency they deserve.
It is October 2015. The ECJ just invalidated Safe Harbor, and your Nagios dashboard says everything is fine while your users see 504 errors. Here is why the shift from simple monitoring to deep observability is critical for Norwegian CTOs right now.
With the EU-US Safe Harbor agreement invalidated today, the 'castle and moat' security strategy is obsolete. Learn how to implement a Zero-Trust architecture using iptables, OpenVPN, and KVM isolation on Norwegian soil.
Green dashboards don't equal happy users. Learn why traditional monitoring is failing modern DevOps teams and how to implement deep system introspection using ELK and Nginx in a Nordic infrastructure.
It is 2015, and editing config files manually in production is no longer acceptable. Learn how to implement 'Infrastructure as Code' using Git hooks, Ansible, and Docker to ensure your Norwegian VPS environments are reproducible and robust.
Migrating a live production database without killing your uptime is a surgical procedure. We break down the Master-Slave swing strategy, disk I/O bottlenecks, and why keeping your data on Norwegian soil is the smartest compliance move you can make right now.
With the Safe Harbor framework crumbling, relying on manual server hardening is a liability. Learn how to automate security compliance on Norwegian infrastructure using Ansible 1.9.
Is your application slow, or is it the network? Learn how to diagnose bottlenecks using the ELK stack, New Relic, and system metrics without blaming the wrong layer.
In 2015, hosting in Frankfurt isn't enough. We explore practical strategies for distributed infrastructure, the rise of the 'Edge', and why local presence in Oslo is critical for performance and compliance.
Containerization is sweeping through Norwegian dev teams, but the default settings are a security nightmare. Here is how to lock down Docker 1.8 without sacrificing agility.
Logs won't save you when latency spikes. Discover how to implement real Application Performance Monitoring, tune PHP-FPM, and why infrastructure choices like CoolVDS dictate your ceiling.
Kubernetes 1.0 has arrived, but the flat IP model is a headache on traditional VPS. We dive deep into Flannel, VXLAN performance, and why your underlying kernel matters more than you think.
The 'castle and moat' security strategy is failing. We explore how to implement Google's BeyondCorp-style Zero-Trust architecture using KVM, SSH keys, and rigorous segmentation on Norwegian infrastructure.
Manual server hardening is a critical risk. Learn how to automate security baselines using Ansible on CentOS 7, ensure compliance with Datatilsynet guidelines, and why data sovereignty in Norway is your best defense against the crumbling Safe Harbor framework.
Migrating live production databases without killing your SLA requires military precision. Here is the exact replication strategy and my.cnf tuning we use to move heavy I/O workloads across the Nordic infrastructure.
Kubernetes 1.0 is finally here, but the flat-networking model is causing headaches for early adopters. We dissect the performance costs of Flannel vs. Weave and why your underlying VPS architecture decides your cluster's fate.
Managing containers across multiple nodes is the new infrastructure nightmare. We break down the current state of Docker Swarm, Kubernetes 1.0, and Mesos, and why your underlying hardware determines who wins.
