Manual security audits are a liability. Learn how to automate CIS benchmarking, enforce configuration management with Ansible, and satisfy Datatilsynet requirements without slowing down your deployment velocity.

Microservices Architecture Patterns: The Brutal Truth About Scaling in 2025

Stop building distributed monoliths. A battle-hardened DevOps guide to microservices patterns that actually work, focusing on latency, data residency in Norway, and the infrastructure required to run them.

Stop Guessing: A Battle-Hardened Guide to APM and Observability in 2024

Logs aren't enough when your production database locks up at 3 AM. We break down how to build a robust APM stack using OpenTelemetry and Prometheus on bare-metal-class VPS in Norway.

Kernel-Level Truth: Using eBPF for Deep System Observability in 2024

Stop guessing why your production server is stalling. We dive deep into using eBPF tools (BCC, bpftrace) to debug latency and I/O bottlenecks on Linux, explaining why true KVM virtualization is non-negotiable for modern observability.

Automating GDPR & CIS Compliance: From Audit Nightmares to Infrastructure-as-Code in Norway

Stop fearing the Datatilsynet audit. Learn how to automate server hardening using OpenSCAP and Ansible on strictly isolated KVM instances, ensuring data sovereignty in Oslo without the manual overhead.

Zero-Downtime Database Migration: A Survival Guide for Norwegian DevOps

Stop relying on "hope" for database migrations. Learn the architectural patterns for zero-downtime transfers using replication, NVMe-backed storage, and strict compliance with Norwegian data laws.

The Perimeter is Dead: Implementing Zero-Trust Architecture in Post-Schrems II Norway

Why 'castle-and-moat' security fails under modern GDPR scrutiny. A CTO's guide to mTLS, micro-segmentation, and sovereign hosting infrastructure without the VPN bottlenecks.
