Infrastructure insights, best practices, and industry trends.
We ran tests on 200+ e-commerce sites and found something interesting: every 100ms of latency costs about 1% in sales. The sites using our CDN averaged 85ms response times globally, compared to 340ms for sites still serving everything from a single origin. That difference adds up quickly when you're processing thousands of transactions daily.

Along the way, we learned that caching headers matter way more than most people think, rate limiting needs to be smarter than "X requests per minute," and monitoring everything doesn't mean you need 47 dashboards. Here's what actually worked for us.
January 5, 2025 • 9 min read Get in Touch →One of our customers got hit with a 480 Gbps DDoS attack last week. Their old provider would've buckled, but our WAF filtered out the junk traffic in about 15 seconds. We're sharing what we saw, how we responded, and why having protection that actually works matters when you're under attack. Spoiler: the attack patterns are getting more sophisticated.
December 28, 2024 • 8 min read Talk About Security →Not every application needs to run in 5 regions. We've seen companies spend way too much on multi-region setups when a good CDN would've solved their latency problems for 10% of the cost. But when you DO need multi-region - like for disaster recovery or compliance - here's how to do it without wasting money on unnecessary complexity.
December 18, 2024 • 7 min read Discuss Your Needs →We rebuilt our search engine three times before getting it right. The problem isn't indexing billions of documents - that's actually the easy part. The hard part is returning results that people actually want to click on. Our ML models now factor in 200+ signals to rank results, and we're still tweaking it. Here's what we learned about building search that doesn't suck.
December 10, 2024 • 11 min read Learn About Our Search →Our infrastructure team spent two weeks analyzing our cloud spending and found we were wasting money in dumb ways. Oversized instances running at 12% CPU, data transfer costs from poor architecture choices, and services we forgot we were paying for. The fixes were mostly configuration changes, and we're now saving $180K annually. Here's the playbook.
