Building Production-Ready tRPC APIs: the TypeScript Alternative to Apollo Federation
This article details our migration from Apollo Federation to a TypeScript-based tRPC stack, which resulted in an 89% reduction in bugs and 67% faster response times. It also covers the mistakes we made, the unexpected performance gains, and an overview of the production architecture we use today to handle 2.4 million daily requests with 99.97% uptime.

Using AWS Lambda Extensions to Run Post-Response Telemetry Flush
At Lead Bank, synchronous telemetry flushing caused intermittent exporter stalls to become user-facing 504 gateway timeouts. By leveraging AWS Lambda's Extensions API and goroutine chaining in Go, flush work is moved off the response path, returning responses immediately while preserving full observability without telemetry loss.

Spec Driven Development: When Architecture Becomes Executable
Spec-Driven Development inverts traditional architecture by making specifications executable and authoritative. It transforms declared intent into validated code through AI generation and provides architectural determinism. It eliminates drift through continuous enforcement, but demands new engineering discipline in schema design and contract-first reasoning.

Beyond API Compatibility: Understanding the Full Impact of Breaking Changes
In this article, we address the most contentious and misinterpreted parts of the SemVer standard, i.e backward compatibility and breaking changes. With the proliferation of SaaS APIs for Generative AI continuing, now is a good time for a retrospection on what constitutes a breaking change and how you can trade off backward compatibility and upgradability with modernization and iterability.
