It is August 2021. Everyone wants Kubernetes, but few need the headache. We benchmark orchestration overhead, analyze the Schrems II impact on hosting choices, and explain why high-IOPS NVMe is non-negotiable for etcd stability.
A pragmatic CTO's guide to hybrid infrastructure in 2021. We analyze TCO, data sovereignty under GDPR, and technical implementation using WireGuard and Terraform 1.0 to bridge CoolVDS with hyperscalers.
Stop relying on a single hyperscaler. Learn how to architect a robust, compliant multi-cloud strategy that leverages Norwegian data sovereignty without sacrificing performance.
Microservices solve one problem but create a networking nightmare. Learn how to implement Istio for observability and mTLS without destroying your latency, specifically tailored for Norwegian compliance and high-performance infrastructure.
Stop throwing RAM at your bottleneck. A technical deep dive into horizontal scaling strategies, GDPR-compliant data locality, and why NVMe I/O is your lifeline before you shard.
Sharding is the nuclear option of database scaling. It introduces complexity, latency, and maintenance nightmares. But when your primary key integer overflows and your IOPS hit the ceiling, it's the only path left. Here is the battle-tested guide to implementing sharding on high-performance infrastructure without losing data.
Stop manual deployments. This guide covers implementing a robust GitOps pipeline using Argo CD and Terraform, specifically tailored for Norwegian infrastructure compliance and high-performance NVMe environments.
Hit the vertical scaling ceiling? Learn battle-tested database sharding strategies using MySQL and ProxySQL. We cover the architecture, the config, and the critical infrastructure requirements for Norwegian enterprises facing GDPR strictures.
Microservices aren't a silver bullet; they're a tradeoff between complexity and scalability. We dissect the Ambassador and Circuit Breaker patterns, discuss GDPR compliance post-Schrems II, and explain why infrastructure latency is the silent killer of distributed systems.
Perimeter security is obsolete. Learn how to architect a Zero Trust environment using WireGuard, SSH Certificates, and Norwegian data sovereignty principles to satisfy Schrems II and secure your infrastructure.
Kubernetes 1.22 is scheduled for release later this year, and it brings a hard stop to many beta APIs. If your Ingress or CRD manifests still use legacy versions, your deployments will fail. Here is a battle-plan for Norwegian DevOps teams to migrate before the deadline.
The castle-and-moat security model is dead. In the wake of SolarWinds and Schrems II, we dismantle traditional VPNs and implement a true Zero-Trust model using WireGuard, mTLS, and KVM-isolated infrastructure in Norway.
Containers are not virtual machines. Learn how to lock down your Docker runtime, survive Schrems II compliance in Norway, and why running as root is a death sentence for your infrastructure.
The castle-and-moat security model is dead. In the wake of Schrems II and SolarWinds, we explore how to implement a Zero-Trust network using WireGuard, Nginx, and mTLS, specifically tailored for Norwegian data sovereignty compliance.
Schrems II changed the rules. Reliance on a single US hyperscaler is now a legal and financial liability. Here is a technical blueprint for a hybrid architecture using Terraform, WireGuard, and Norwegian NVMe infrastructure.
Vertical scaling has a ceiling. When your NVMe storage is saturated and connections hang, it's time to shard. This guide covers practical sharding strategies for MySQL and PostgreSQL, specifically tailored for high-availability setups in the Nordic region.
Vendor lock-in and the Schrems II ruling make public cloud serverless risky for Norwegian enterprises. Learn how to deploy a self-hosted, GDPR-compliant serverless architecture using OpenFaaS and K3s on high-performance NVMe infrastructure.
Intel has held the crown for decades, but the Zen architecture changed the math. We breakdown why AMD EPYC combined with PCIe 4.0 NVMe is the new standard for Norwegian hosting infrastructure, featuring real-world tuning examples.
Stop debugging distributed monoliths with grep. A battle-tested guide to deploying Istio 1.9 for mTLS and observability, specifically tuned for GDPR-compliant Norwegian infrastructure.
Uptime is a vanity metric. If your API takes 500ms to respond, you are already down. Here is how to implement a GDPR-compliant observability stack in Norway without relying on US-based SaaS.
Stop paying the "hyperscaler tax." We analyze egress fees, zombie instances, and why shifting workloads to Oslo-based NVMe infrastructure solves both TCO and GDPR headaches.
Schrems II has made data residency a critical issue. Learn battle-tested strategies to migrate terabyte-scale databases from US clouds to Norwegian soil without killing your uptime.
The CJEU ruling changed the game for European data. Here is a technical blueprint for a hybrid infrastructure that keeps data sovereign in Norway while leveraging global edge networks, featuring Terraform workflows and WireGuard meshing.
Logs aren't enough. Learn how to build a robust monitoring stack using Prometheus and Grafana on high-performance NVMe VPS to catch bottlenecks before your users do.
Hit the ceiling on your vertical scaling? We dive deep into practical sharding strategies, key-based vs. range-based architectures, and why local NVMe storage matters for Norwegian data residency.
Escaping the hyperscaler tax in a post-Schrems II world. We analyze how moving workloads to local NVMe infrastructure reduces TCO and ensures GDPR compliance without the bandwidth billing shock.
Escape vendor lock-in and GDPR nightmares. Learn how to deploy a high-performance, compliant FaaS architecture using K3s and OpenFaaS on standard KVM infrastructure in Oslo.
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.
A battle-hardened guide to implementing Istio and Linkerd on Norwegian infrastructure. We tackle mTLS, Schrems II compliance, and avoiding latency spikes on KVM-based VPS.
Hit the vertical scaling ceiling? Discover battle-tested database sharding strategies, from application-side routing to ProxySQL implementation, specifically tailored for low-latency Nordic infrastructure.
