High-Performance Backends —
Built to Survive Scale
Most startup backends are built to ship, not to scale. When 10K users become 100K, the database becomes the bottleneck, the API starts dropping requests, and your team spends more time fighting fires than building features. We fix that.
What We Build
High-Throughput APIs
REST and gRPC APIs engineered for 100K+ req/s with caching, connection pooling, and query optimization built in.
Real-Time Data Pipelines
Kafka-based streaming pipelines with ClickHouse sinks — 200K events/sec sustained, zero message loss.
Database Architecture
Schema design, indexing strategy, sharding, and query optimization for PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, and Redis at scale.
Kubernetes Infrastructure
EKS deployments with Karpenter autoscaling, spot instances, and CI/CD pipelines that don't break on deploy.
Backend Rescue
We inherit existing backends, diagnose bottlenecks, and fix the 2-3 things actually causing 80% of your problems.
ClickHouse Migration
Migrate from Snowflake, Redshift, or BigQuery to ClickHouse. We've done this 15+ times. 60–82% cost reduction typical.
Stack We Work In
How It Works
Technical Audit (Week 1)
We map your current backend: query plans, infrastructure spend, failure patterns. You get a prioritized fix list with expected impact per item.
Build (Weeks 2–10)
We own implementation. You see every architectural decision in code reviews. Weekly check-ins, no surprises.
Handover
Runbook, monitoring dashboards, on-call playbook. Your team owns it from day one — we train them before we leave.
FAQ
What backend technologies do you specialize in?
Go, Node.js, Python, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Apache Kafka, Redis, Kubernetes on AWS EKS. We pick the stack that fits the workload.
Can you fix an existing backend, or only build from scratch?
Both. We frequently rescue existing backends. Most of the time it's 2-3 specific bottlenecks, not a full rewrite.
How much does it cost?
Engagements typically start at $30,000. We don't publish rates — scope determines price. Discovery call is free.
Do you handle DevOps and infrastructure too?
Yes. Backend code, Kubernetes, CI/CD, monitoring. We don't hand you working code and leave you to figure out how to run it.
