API Gateway Performance Tuning: Breaking the 10ms Barrier

Stop blaming your backend. Most API latency issues stem from untuned gateways and default Linux kernel settings. Here is the battle-tested guide to optimizing Nginx and the TCP stack for high-throughput environments in 2023.

API Gateway Tuning: Surviving The Thundering Herd on Norwegian Infrastructure

Latency kills conversion. We dive deep into kernel-level optimizations, NGINX tuning, and why hardware locality in Norway matters for API performance.

API Gateway Performance Tuning: 99th Percentile Latency is the Only Metric That Matters

Default configurations are killing your API throughput. We deep dive into Linux kernel tuning, Nginx 1.23 optimizations, and why NVMe storage is non-negotiable for low-latency workloads in 2022.

Optimizing API Gateway Latency: Kernel Tuning and Nginx Strategies for High-Throughput Systems

Default configurations are the enemy of performance. Learn how to tune the Linux kernel, optimize Nginx workers, and leverage NVMe storage to slash API latency, specifically tailored for the Nordic infrastructure landscape.

API Gateway Performance Tuning: Squeezing Milliseconds Out of NGINX on Linux (2020 Edition)

Latency is the silent killer of microservices. In this deep dive, we explore kernel-level tuning, NGINX optimizations, and the impact of the recent Schrems II ruling on your infrastructure choices.

API Gateway Tuning in 2014: Scaling Nginx for High-Load REST Architectures

Is your API gasping for air under load? Forget default configurations. We dive deep into Linux kernel tuning, Nginx upstream keep-alives, and the hardware realities needed to handle the mobile revolution's traffic spikes.

Stop Blaming the Code: A Sysadmin’s Guide to Bottleneck Hunting in 2013

Your application isn't slow because of PHP—it's slow because your I/O is choking. Learn how to use strace, iostat, and Nginx stub_status to prove it, and why SSD-backed KVM is the only viable path forward.

Application Performance Monitoring: Stop Guessing, Start Measuring (The 2013 Guide)

Nagios alerts at 3 AM are not a monitoring strategy. Learn how to pinpoint bottlenecks in PHP, MySQL, and Disk I/O using tools like New Relic, iostat, and Nginx stub_status to stabilize your infrastructure.

Stop Guessing: The Sysadmin’s Guide to Real Application Performance Monitoring in 2013

Is your server actually slow, or is it just waiting on I/O? A deep dive into diagnosing Linux performance issues using vmstat, strace, and Nginx metrics, tailored for the Norwegian hosting landscape.
