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.

When Reverse Proxies Surprise You: Hard Lessons from Operating at Scale
Operating massive reverse proxy fleets reveals hard lessons: optimizations that work on smaller systems fail at scale; mundane oversights like missing commas cause major outages; and abstractions meant to simplify become hidden fragility points. Success requires profiling on target hardware, relentlessly monitoring boring details, keeping hot paths lean, and trusting instrumentation over theory.

Evaluating Kotlin Multiplatform: Benefits and Trade-Offs in Cross-Platform Development
KMP is emerging as an alternative for cross-platform development, offering a path to share code without sacrificing the performance and feel of a native application. KMP comes with its own set of trade-offs and this article dives deep into those. While it focuses primarily on Android and iOS, KMP can be used to build desktop, web, and server-side applications, all from the same shared logic.
