Building Distributed Event-Driven Architectures across Multi-Cloud Boundaries
Multi-cloud event-driven architectures are now essential, not optional. With most organizations already multi-cloud, success depends on optimizing latency, ensuring resilience, and managing event consistency across providers. Key practices include code-level tuning, robust recovery policies, duplicate prevention, observability, and strong team readiness.

Using Traffic Mirroring to Debug and Test Microservices in Production-Like Environments
Traffic mirroring has evolved from a network security tool to a robust method for debugging and testing microservices using real-world data. By safely duplicating production traffic to a shadow environment, teams can replicate elusive bugs, profile performance under actual load, validate new features, and detect regressions, ensuring that production remains isolated and user experiences intact.

Building a Global Caching System at Netflix: a Deep Dive to Global Replication
Netflix's EVCache system handles 400M ops/second across 22,000 servers, managing 14.3 PB of data. This infrastructure ensures global availability and resilience through intelligent data routing and flexible replication strategies. By implementing batch compression and switching to DNS-based discovery, Netflix optimizes efficiency, reduces bandwidth usage and significantly lowers operational costs.

Architecting for High Availability in the Cloud with Cellular Architecture
Cellular architecture is a design pattern that helps achieve high availability in multi-tenant applications. The goal is to design your application so that you can deploy all of its components into an isolated "cell" that is fully self-sufficient. It can benefit your customers regarding availability and ensure you hit your SLAs.
