Technical insights and best practices for DevOps & Infrastructure
Uptime is a vanity metric. If your latency is high, you're down. We dive deep into monitoring I/O wait, handling the post-Safe Harbor data landscape, and why raw KVM performance beats containerized noise.
Moving from a monolith to microservices introduces a new enemy: network latency. We explore the Nginx gateway pattern, service discovery with Consul, and why the recent Safe Harbor ruling makes hosting data in Norway critical for DevOps teams in 2016.

It is not enough to just be 'up'. In the post-Safe Harbor era, Norwegian DevOps teams need to master Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and underlying hardware metrics. Here is how to diagnose bottlenecks using Nginx, ELK, and proper virtualization.
It is 2016. If you are still relying on Nagios checks to tell you your infrastructure is healthy, you are flying blind. We dissect the critical shift from passive monitoring to active observability using ELK, StatsD, and NVMe-backed architecture.
Is your Jenkins build queue longer than the line at the Vinmonopolet before a holiday? We dive deep into optimizing I/O bottlenecks, Docker layer caching, and infrastructure choices to cut build times by 60%.
Hardcoded IPs are the enemy of uptime. Learn how to implement a dynamic service discovery architecture (the precursor to the 'Service Mesh') using Consul, HAProxy, and Docker on high-performance KVM instances.
Safe Harbor is dead and hardware fails. Here is a battle-tested guide to surviving server outages using Master-Slave replication and local Norwegian infrastructure.
Docker is revolutionizing deployment, but its default configuration is a security minefield. We dive into kernel capabilities, user namespaces, and why KVM isolation is non-negotiable for Norwegian data compliance in 2016.
Is AWS Lambda the future or just vendor lock-in with latency issues? We analyze Serverless patterns for 2016, the death of Safe Harbor, and how to build event-driven architectures on high-performance Norwegian VPS without losing control.
A battle-hardened comparison of container orchestration tools available in early 2016. We analyze Kubernetes 1.1, Docker Swarm, and Mesos, focusing on infrastructure requirements, Safe Harbor compliance, and deploying on KVM-based VPS in Norway.
Legacy monitoring tools like Nagios can't keep up with dynamic scaling. We dismantle the implementation of Datadog on CentOS 7, covering Nginx metrics, custom tags, and why data residency in Norway is critical post-Safe Harbor.
Your build server isn't just slow; it's costing you developer hours. We dissect the I/O bottlenecks in Jenkins and Docker setups circa 2016 and explain why moving to KVM-based infrastructure in Oslo is the only fix for serious engineering teams.
Kubernetes networking is notoriously complex. We break down the flat network model, Flannel configuration, and the iptables maze to help you survive production in 2016.
Kubernetes is taking over, but the networking model is a beast. We dive deep into kube-proxy, iptables modes, and why Flannel configurations on standard VPS providers might be killing your latency.
It's 2016, yet dev teams still accept 20-minute build times. In this deep dive, we expose the hidden I/O bottlenecks in Jenkins and Docker, analyze the post-Safe Harbor data landscape for Norwegian companies, and demonstrate how NVMe-backed virtualization solves the 'noisy neighbor' problem.
Kubernetes 1.1 promises orchestration nirvana, but the networking model can be a nightmare. We break down the flat network requirement, compare Flannel vs. Weave, and explain why your underlying VPS architecture decides your cluster's fate.
Overlay networks, iptables hell, and the myth of zero-latency. A battle-hardened guide to K8s networking in the post-Safe Harbor era, specifically for Norwegian infrastructure.
AWS Lambda is trending, but cold starts and the Safe Harbor collapse make public cloud risky for Norwegian business. Learn to architect a private, container-based event system on high-performance VPS.
The default kube-proxy in Kubernetes 1.1 is a performance killer. We benchmark iptables mode vs. userspace, configure Flannel for low-latency Norwegian infrastructure, and navigate the post-Safe Harbor compliance minefield.
The Safe Harbor ruling changed the game. Here is how to build a low-latency, legally compliant edge network using Nginx and Docker on Norwegian infrastructure.
With the recent invalidation of Safe Harbor, hosting data outside Europe is a liability. Here is how to build a robust monitoring stack on Norwegian KVM infrastructure using ELK and system metrics, ensuring performance and compliance.
Forget the buzzwords. In 2016, "Edge" means getting your logic closer to your users. We explore real-world use cases involving IoT, TCP optimization, and the data sovereignty panic following the Safe Harbor ruling.
Is your dashboard all green while customers scream about timeouts? It is time to move from basic monitoring to deep system introspection. We explore how to debug latency in 2016 using ELK, Nginx custom logging, and why low-latency infrastructure in Norway is your best defense.
The invalidation of Safe Harbor changed the game for European data hosting. We dive into practical DR strategies, MySQL GTID replication, and why data sovereignty in Norway is your best insurance policy.
Kubernetes 1.1 is finally production-ready, but the networking model remains a black box for many. We dissect the overlay network tax, optimization of kube-proxy, and why the recent Safe Harbor ruling makes hosting your cluster in Norway critical.
Don't let connection overhead kill your microservices. We dig deep into kernel tuning, NGINX worker optimization, and the specific latency challenges of serving the Nordic market.
Latency is the silent killer of user experience. With the recent Safe Harbor invalidation, hosting data inside Norway isn't just about speed—it's about survival. We explore technical strategies for localized 'edge' processing using KVM and Nginx.
Kubernetes 1.1 has brought massive changes to networking with the new iptables proxy mode. We dive deep into CNI, Flannel configuration, and why the recent Safe Harbor invalidation makes running your own K8s cluster in Norway a smart move.
It is late 2015. Microservices are exploding, but your API gateway is choking. Learn how to tune Nginx 1.9.x for HTTP/2, optimize the Linux kernel for massive concurrency, and why hardware selection matters more than code optimization.
