How to Build a Secure and Scalable IoT Platform

The promise of the Internet of Things (IoT) is transformative: a world of real-time data, predictive maintenance, and unprecedented operational efficiency. The reality, however, is a C-suite nightmare of botnets, data breaches, and platforms that crumble under load. For a Chief Technology Officer, an IoT initiative is a high-stakes endeavor

How to Build a Real-Time Collaboration Tool with WebSockets

The demand for real-time, Google Docs-like collaborative experiences is no longer a feature—it's an expectation. For CTOs and engineering leaders, architecting such a system presents a unique set of challenges that starkly differ from standard request-response patterns. The naive approach of HTTP polling is a non-starter, leading

How to Build Your Own Internal Developer Platform (IDP) Using Crossplane

In the modern cloud-native landscape, the friction between operation stability and developer velocity remains a critical bottleneck. As organizations scale, the manual ticketing systems traditionally used to provision infrastructure become unsustainable. The solution lies in platform engineering: building an Internal Developer Platform (IDP) that enables self-service capabilities without sacrificing governance

Orchestrating State: Building and Deploying Stateful Applications on Kubernetes with Operators

While Kubernetes excels at managing stateless microservices via standard Deployments and ReplicaSets, managing stateful applications—such as databases, message queues, and distributed caches—introduces significant complexity. These applications require stable network identities, persistent storage, and ordered deployment and termination. To solve this in an automated, scalable manner, high-performing engineering teams
