Redis is fast - I'll cache in Postgres
https://dizzy.zone/2025/09/24/Redis-is-fast-Ill-cache-in-Postgres/
There are books & many articles online, like this one arguing for using Postgres for everything. I thought I’d take a look at one use case - using Postgres instead of Redis for caching. I work with APIs quite a bit, so I’d build a super simple HTTP server that responds with data from that cache. I’d start from Redis as this is something I frequently encounter at work, switch it out to Postgres using unlogged tables and see if there’s a difference.

How to Name Your Metrics
https://blog.olly.garden/how-to-name-your-metrics
Metrics are the quantitative backbone of observability—the numbers that tell us how our systems are performing. This is the third post in our OpenTelemetry naming series, where we've already explored how to name spans and how to enrich them with meaningful attributes. Now let's tackle the art of naming the measurements that matter.

Kubernetes observability from day one - Mixins on Grafana, Mimir and Alloy
https://www.amazinglyabstract.it/kubernetes/observability/2025/06/26/kubernetes-mixins.html
One of the things we quickly find out when using Kubernetes is that it’s hard to know what is going on in our cluster. In most cases, we implement monitoring and alerting after we’ve dealt with problems, but there is a better way.
We don’t need to wait for the explosions, we can re-use the community’s knowledge and implement observability from the beginning.
