Case Studies
Real problems,solved in production.
Each study walks through one real engagement: the problem as we found it, how we diagnosed it, and the architecture decisions that fixed it.
Headless commerce migration: zero downtime, 60% more traffic
A monolithic WordPress store where the storefront shared resources with the backend. We decoupled it into a headless architecture: WordPress kept as the backend, a containerized frontend on Kubernetes behind a CDN, multi-layer caching, and a zero-downtime delivery pipeline.
Site traffic, before vs after
The 3-second timeout that silently corrupted production deployments
An e-commerce API's auto-scaled servers kept joining production empty. The cause: a Lambda with a 3-second timeout, one second short of its real cold-start runtime. Automatic retries turned every near-miss into a duplicate, racing deployment.
A 68% infrastructure cost cut, with zero downtime and a more reliable platform
13 servers and 6 load balancers, half of them dead, running at 0.2-2.6% CPU. We measured first, then migrated to a cloud-native autoscaling architecture with an HA database cluster - cutting cost 68% with zero downtime.
Reclaiming years of cloud storage without risking a single user's data
Four years of orphaned media, intermixed with live user content, made a storage cleanup a data-loss risk. We caught two deletion bugs in review and redesigned the operation to be fully reversible.
Containing the blast radius after a credential leak on a consumer platform
A leaked credential was abused in production. The deeper finding was structural: static keys on disk and one over-privileged identity. We rebuilt the environment around least privilege and short-lived credentials.

The first conversation is free and usually enough to tell whether it is worth a deeper look at your environment.
