Real problems, wired end to end

Each study names the requirement, the architecture and the exact machines it runs on. What you will not find is an invented percentage or a quote we wrote ourselves.

Deployments in production

3 organisations, 33 machines between them, and not one of them ordered from a shopping list. Each arrived with a workload shape — a build pipeline that splits in two, a shared platform carrying somebody else’s customers, a queue that has to drain before a report is late — and left with hardware chosen against a measurement. All of them are on extended round-the-clock cover.

No performance percentages appear on this page. We publish figures we have measured under a named method, and these deployments are described by their architecture instead.
