Practical guides on Java, Spring Boot, cloud architecture, and developer productivity.
A filtered list of MCP servers worth connecting to a coding assistant, with the specific flag that keeps each one from flooding your context window or writing to production. Plus the cases where a plain CLI beats an MCP server by 20x.
Audit fees, compliance platforms, pentests, and the engineering time nobody budgets. A realistic first-year SOC 2 number for a single-product SaaS team under 50 people, with sources.
Valkey is 20% cheaper than Redis on nodes, 33% cheaper on serverless, and the only ElastiCache engine eligible for a Database Savings Plan. Wire-compatible, in-place upgrade. The bigger win is the audit it forces: what you are caching and what you can switch off.
Karpenter can take 20 to 40 percent off your EKS compute bill, more with Spot, without refactoring a line of app code. Why it beats Cluster Autoscaler, the audit sequence to roll it out safely, and the gotchas that quietly cost people money.
