Three Clouds, One Architecture: Engineering Resilient Financial Systems
Form3's journey from a single cloud to a triple active multi-cloud architecture is a masterclass in practical engineering. Ross McFarlane and Kevin Holditch don't just walk through cross-cloud networking and distributed databases with CockroachDB and NATS; they tackle the messy reality of regional disaster recovery expectations across the UK, Europe, and US markets. It's a grounded look at complexity done right. For a deeper dive into scaling infrastructure, our piece on Modal's sandbox rebuild offers a useful parallel.
How data centers can build resilience beyond the grid
A single downed power line in Northern Virginia turned into a stark reminder that data centers remain dangerously brittle when the grid stumbles. This close call wasn't just a flicker of inconvenience; it exposed a systemic weakness in how these facilities handle disruption. The fix isn't more backup batteries. It's smarter, AI-driven load management that anticipates failures before they cascade. We need to demand resilience, not just redundancy.
