Architecture
Monolith vs Microservices
Discover the key differences between monolithic and microservices architectures in a simple, easy-to-understand way. Learn the benefits and challenges of each to decide which approach fits your app’s needs best.
Caching
Speeding Up Systems With Smart Storage
Caching is the hidden engine behind fast, responsive systems. This guide breaks down core caching concepts from hits and misses to eviction policies and write strategies—along with tools like Redis, Memcached, and CDNs that power real-world performance at scale.
Load Balancers
Proxies and Load Balancers Enhance Web Performance and Security
Learn the difference between forward and reverse proxies, their use cases, and how they protect clients and servers. Explore load balancing strategies and how they help distribute traffic efficiently across multiple servers, improving performance and security for websites and web applications.
