Practical tips to reduce your cloud infrastructure costs without sacrificing performance.
With the recent invalidation of the Safe Harbor agreement, relying solely on US-based cloud giants is a liability. Here is a technical blueprint for a Multi-Cloud architecture that balances compliance, latency, and redundancy.
The ECJ just invalidated Safe Harbor. Relying solely on US hyperscalers is now a compliance risk. Here is how to build a hybrid infrastructure that balances sovereignty with scalability.
Is public cloud lock-in draining your IT budget? We analyze the TCO of hybrid architectures in 2015, combining AWS scalability with the raw IOPS of local KVM VPS, and why keeping core data in Norway matters more than ever.
With the Advocate General's recent opinion on Safe Harbor, relying solely on US hyperscalers is now a business risk. Here is how to architect a hybrid setup using local Norwegian infrastructure.
Is your pay-as-you-go cloud bill spiraling out of control? We analyze the TCO of Public Cloud vs. High-Performance VPS in the Norwegian market, offering Linux kernel tuning tips and architectural shifts to cut costs by 40% while lowering latency.
Is the 'all-in' public cloud strategy actually costing you more? We analyze the TCO of hybrid infrastructures, data sovereignty under the Data Protection Directive, and how to technically bridge CoolVDS with hyperscalers using HAProxy in 2015.
Stop managing security with spreadsheets. We explore automating CentOS 7 hardening using Ansible to meet Datatilsynet standards, ensuring your infrastructure is as rigid as the Norwegian winter.
Is your monthly infrastructure bill scaling faster than your user base? We dissect the hidden costs of public cloud over-provisioning versus high-performance KVM architectures in the Norwegian market.
Is your single-provider setup a ticking time bomb? We dissect the risks of relying solely on US giants, explore the 2015 landscape of hybrid infrastructure, and show you how to leverage local Norwegian performance without sacrificing global reach.
The cloud honeymoon is over. Discover how to architect a redundant, legally compliant infrastructure that leverages Norwegian data sovereignty without sacrificing global reach.
Cloud adoption was supposed to save us money. Two years later, the CFO is asking why our hosting bill rivals our payroll. Here is a pragmatic look at optimizing spend, rightsizing instances, and why data sovereignty in Norway matters more than ever in 2015.
Don't hand the keys to your kingdom to a single US giant. A pragmatic guide to building a resilient, hybrid infrastructure using Norwegian jurisdiction and KVM portability.
Is relying solely on Frankfurt or Ireland hurting your latency in Oslo? We dismantle the single-vendor myth and demonstrate a hybrid architecture using VPN tunnels, local KVM instances, and smart load balancing.
A pragmatic guide for CTOs balancing global scale with Norwegian data sovereignty. Learn how to architect a hybrid infrastructure that minimizes latency and maximizes compliance.
It is 2011, and while everyone talks about CPU cores, disk latency is silently killing your database performance. We dissect the difference between SAN and Local RAID-10, analyze the impact of 'noisy neighbors' in virtualization, and explain why Norwegian data sovereignty protects you from the US Patriot Act.
Is the cloud hype worth the latency? We analyze the storage landscape of 2011, from Amazon S3 object storage to local RAID-10 SAS arrays, and why keeping your data in Norway matters for latency and the Data Protection Directive.
Subversion is dead. Secure your code against foreign snooping by deploying a private, high-performance Git server on Norwegian soil using Gitolite and Ubuntu LTS.
Is your server crawling despite low CPU usage? The bottleneck isn't your code—it's likely your storage architecture. We analyze the shift from spinning rust to SSD-cached virtualization and why data sovereignty in Norway matters more than ever.
While everyone talks about 'The Cloud' and unlimited space, the real bottleneck is disk I/O. We analyze why shared SANs fail under load and how local SSD RAID architectures in Norway are solving the latency crisis.
Is the "Cloud" just a marketing buzzword for slow remote servers? We dissect the state of storage technology in 2011, from spinning rust to the SSD revolution, and explain why hosting in Norway matters.
Stop letting noisy neighbors kill your database performance. We dissect why Xen paravirtualization is the only serious choice for stability, how to tune DomU for high loads, and why hosting in Norway matters for your I/O.
It is 2011, and the 'Cloud' buzzword is everywhere. But for systems architects, the reality is often high I/O wait and unpredictable performance. We explore why local RAID 10 storage beats centralized SANs and how to tune your Linux stack for speed.
Navigating the 2010 cloud storage hype from a Norwegian perspective. We analyze the trade-offs between Amazon S3, local SAS RAID arrays, and the legal implications of the Personal Data Act.
A pragmatic analysis of cloud storage options available in 2011. We debunk the 'cloud' hype, compare SAN vs. Local RAID-10 performance, and discuss why Norwegian data sovereignty laws make local VPS hosting the smart choice for CTOs.
Stop buying hosting based on disk space. We dissect why storage I/O bottlenecks are the real performance killer for your infrastructure, how to diagnose them with `iostat`, and why the shift to SSDs in Norway is inevitable.
It is 2011 and 'The Cloud' is the buzzword of the year. But for high-performance databases, typical cloud storage creates an I/O bottleneck. We analyze SAN latency vs. Local RAID 10 and how to keep your data compliant in Norway.
While the industry buzzes about 'The Cloud,' pragmatic CTOs know that network storage introduces latency. We analyze the trade-offs between SAN, NAS, and local RAID 10 in a post-RHEL 6 landscape.
Is 'The Cloud' just marketing fluff? We analyze the shift from dedicated iron to virtualization, the rise of KVM, and why keeping your data in Norway beats the US Patriot Act risks.
