Engineering Labs
Reference implementations, built in the open.
Each lab is a reference architecture we built to work through a real engineering problem — not a customer case study. Explore the problem, the architecture, the decisions and what we learned.
Showing 8 of 8 engineering labs
Production-ready AWS foundation
A multi-account AWS landing zone with sane networking, IAM boundaries and guardrails from the first commit.
Terraform multi-environment architecture
A Terraform module structure that supports dev, staging and production without duplicated code or state file chaos.
Kubernetes platform baseline
A baseline EKS platform with namespace-per-team isolation, autoscaling and resource governance configured from day one.
GitOps deployment workflow
A Git-driven deployment pipeline where the cluster state is always a reflection of what's committed, not what someone ran manually.
Observability stack
Metrics, logs and traces wired together well enough to answer 'why' during an incident, not just 'something is wrong'.
Secure CI/CD pipeline
A CI/CD pipeline with dependency, container and secret scanning built in as gates, not as an afterthought.
Cloud cost optimization exercise
A structured pass through cloud spend — tagging, rightsizing and idle-resource cleanup — with the reasoning behind each decision.
Disaster recovery reference architecture
A tested backup and recovery design for a multi-service application, with an actual recovery time measured, not assumed.
