Case Studies
Detailed breakdowns of my most challenging engineering projects. Exploring the system problems, architectural decisions, and scaling strategies.
Scaling from Monolith to Microservices
How we decoupled a legacy monolithic application to support 10x user growth without downtime.
Key Metric
Deployment time reduced from 2 hours to 10 minutes
Optimizing Database Performance at Scale
A deep dive into identifying and fixing slow queries in a massive PostgreSQL database.
Key Metric
P99 latency for analytical queries dropped from 5s to 200ms
Building a Resilient Event-Driven Architecture
Designing a fault-tolerant system using Apache Kafka and Event Sourcing.
Key Metric
Decoupled service failures; checkout succeeds even if email service is down
