Shipping Without Fear: Inside Our Zero-Downtime Deployment Culture

Shipping Without Fear: Inside Our Zero-Downtime Deployment Culture

At hyperscale, speed doesn’t kill. Poor culture does. We unpack how safe rollouts are built through trust, clarity, and muscle memory, not just pipelines and scripts.

If the Control Plane Fails, Nothing Else Matters

If the Control Plane Fails, Nothing Else Matters

Your data plane moves packets. Your control plane moves decisions. If the latter breaks, the former doesn’t matter. This is how we protect the network’s brain.

Networking and Platform Aren’t Separate Systems: They Never Were

Networking and Platform Aren’t Separate Systems: They Never Were

Network and platform teams are often divided by priorities, tools, and language but they’re solving the same problem. When you bridge that divide, systems stop breaking quietly.

Capacity Isn’t What You Think It Is

Capacity Isn’t What You Think It Is

70% utilization doesn’t make you safe. In hyperscale networks, real capacity is what remains standing after failure. Let’s build for the world as it breaks.
