A deep dive into optimizing the Linux kernel and Nginx for millisecond-level API responses. We cover sysctl tuning, TLS 1.3 implementation, and why hardware selection determines your ceiling.
Hardware redundancy is not a backup strategy. In this guide, we tear down a robust Nordic DR plan using KVM, off-site replication, and GDPR-compliant architecture standard for 2019.
Is your pipeline stuck in 'pending'? We dissect the I/O bottlenecks killing your deployment speed, explore 2018's best Docker caching strategies, and explain why hardware location in Norway matters for your dev loop.
Sharding is complex, expensive, and necessary when vertical scaling fails. Learn how to implement horizontal partitioning strategies using MySQL and PostgreSQL without breaking GDPR compliance.
Breaking the monolith doesn't mean breaking your SLA. We explore proven architecture patterns—from API Gateways to Circuit Breakers—that keep distributed systems alive when network latency strikes.
It's 2018, and green lights on Nagios don't mean your system is healthy. We dissect the shift from passive monitoring to active observability, the impact of GDPR on log retention in Norway, and how to configure a Prometheus & ELK stack that actually explains *why* things broke.
With GDPR enforcement just weeks away and the dust still settling from Meltdown/Spectre, the "Castle and Moat" security model is a liability. Here is how to implement a pragmatic Zero-Trust architecture using Nginx mTLS and strict SSH hardening on Norwegian infrastructure.
With the May 25th GDPR deadline approaching, slow build pipelines are a risk you can't afford. We dissect how to optimize Jenkins and GitLab runners using Docker multi-stage builds and high-performance NVMe infrastructure in Norway.
Your build times are killing developer productivity. We dissect the hidden causes of slow CI/CD pipelines in 2018—from disk I/O latency to Docker layer caching—and why infrastructure location matters now more than ever.
It's March 2018. The GDPR enforcement date is looming. If your primary node melts down today, do you have a plan? We break down RTO, RPO, and practical replication strategies using standard Linux primitives.
Your build pipeline isn't slow because you lack CPU cores; it's slow because your disk I/O is choking on thousands of tiny writes. Here is how to diagnose wait times and fix them using RAM disks, Docker layer caching, and NVMe-backed architecture.
Cloud providers promise nirvana with 'Serverless', but the latency and vendor lock-in can kill your architecture. Here is how to build a high-performance FaaS platform on Norwegian infrastructure using Docker and OpenFaaS.
We benchmark the complexity and performance of Kubernetes 1.5 against Docker Swarm Mode. Learn which orchestrator fits your Norwegian infrastructure stack before the GDPR deadline hits.
Post-Mirai botnet analysis: Why your 'backup script' isn't a Disaster Recovery Plan. We break down Master-Slave replication on Ubuntu 16.04, the legal reality of data residency in Norway, and why NVMe restores save jobs.
Stop guessing why your application is slow. From analyzing CPU steal time to configuring the ELK stack, this guide cuts through the marketing fluff and shows you how to monitor Linux systems properly.
Moving from monolith to microservices requires more than just Docker. We explore critical patterns like Service Discovery with Consul, API Gateways with NGINX, and why infrastructure latency defines success in the Nordic market.
Breaking the monolith is the trend of 2016, but network latency and IOPS bottlenecks will kill your deployment. Here is a battle-tested guide to microservices architecture using Nginx, Docker, and Consul on high-performance infrastructure.
Moving to microservices introduces network chaos. Learn how to implement a service discovery and routing layer using Linkerd (or Nginx+Consul) on high-performance infrastructure, without sacrificing latency.
A battle-hardened look at how Kubernetes handles pod-to-pod communication. We dissect the specific challenges of CNI plugins like Flannel and Calico, debug MTU mismatches, and explain why raw underlying hardware performance is critical for overlay networks.
Is your deployment pipeline bleeding time? We dissect disk I/O blocking, proper Docker caching strategies, and the critical impact of hardware virtualization on CI/CD performance. Learn how to cut build times by 40% using KVM and NVMe infrastructure.
With the ECJ invalidating Safe Harbor, reliance on US-only hosting is a liability. Here is a technical guide to building a compliant, low-latency hybrid infrastructure using Ansible, HAProxy, and local KVM instances.
With the recent invalidation of Safe Harbor, data locality is critical. Learn when to shard your MySQL architecture and why vertical scaling on Norwegian NVMe infrastructure might be the smarter move in late 2015.
Is your hosting provider burning cash on cooling? We explore how Norway's hydropower and low PUE reduce costs and improve stability for mission-critical VPS.
Stop letting default my.cnf settings kill your application performance. We dive deep into MySQL 5.5 optimization, SSD utilization, and why latency to NIX matters for your Norwegian user base.
Stop trusting shared IPs with your business communications. A battle-hardened guide to configuring Postfix for maximum deliverability, speed, and security on a dedicated VPS environment.
Waking up at 3 AM to a crashed server is a rite of passage, but it shouldn't be a lifestyle. Learn how to combine Nagios for alerts and Munin for trends to secure your Norwegian infrastructure.
Is your Apache server capping out on RAM? It’s time to decouple. We explore how to implement the newly bundled PHP-FPM in PHP 5.3, tune process managers for traffic spikes, and leverage Nginx to handle concurrency without melting your hardware.
Is your application crawling despite clean code? The bottleneck is likely your my.cnf configuration or your host's disk I/O. We dive into MySQL 5.5 optimization and why hardware choice matters more than ever in 2011.
With Oracle's acquisition of Sun Microsystems shaking the open source community, choosing the right database has never been more critical. We compare MySQL 5.1 and PostgreSQL 8.4 on performance, ACID compliance, and suitability for Norwegian enterprise hosting.
