Is Kubernetes overkill? Is Docker Swarm dead? We benchmark orchestration overhead, analyze the impact of the Schrems II ruling on hosting choices, and explain why NVMe latency is the silent killer of k8s clusters.
Is your AWS bill bleeding your runway? In the wake of the Schrems II ruling, the 'Hyperscaler Tax' isn't just financial—it's legal. We break down actionable strategies to slash TCO, from kernel-level tuning to strategic repatriation of data to Norway.
A battle-hardened comparison of container orchestrators for European DevOps teams. We analyze performance, complexity, and the critical impact of the recent Privacy Shield invalidation on your hosting choices.
With the EU-US Privacy Shield invalidated, your choice of infrastructure matters more than ever. We benchmark K8s, Swarm, and Nomad on bare-metal NVMe to see what actually performs in a post-Cloud Act world.
With the CJEU invalidating the US-EU Privacy Shield yesterday, where you host your cluster matters as much as how you orchestrate it. We benchmark Kubernetes 1.18, Docker Swarm, and Nomad 0.11 on NVMe infrastructure.
With remote work surging in Q1 2020, infrastructure bills are spiraling. This guide breaks down actionable strategies to cut cloud bloat, optimize resource allocation, and leverage Norwegian data sovereignty for cost stability.
Stop relying on 'docker-compose' in production. We compare K8s 1.17 and Swarm for Nordic workloads, analyze the hidden costs of orchestration overhead, and explain why underlying hardware latency kills your cluster before it starts.
