Set up a multi-region deployment on GCP. Latency for Asian users improved by 200ms! Used Cloud Spanner for globally distributed database with strong consistency. The complexity is real, but for our global user base, it was necessary. Traffic routing with Cloud Load Balancing works perfectly. #gcp #cloud #performance #globalinfrastructure

Just migrated our entire infrastructure to AWS. The cost savings with reserved instances are incredible! Went from $15k/month to $8k/month by right-sizing instances and using Savings Plans. The migration took 3 months but the ROI was achieved in just 6 months. Planning and tagging were crucial! #aws #cloud #infrastructure #costoptimization

Terraform tip: Always use modules for reusable infrastructure. Our deployment time dropped by 60%! Created modules for common patterns - VPC, EKS cluster, RDS. New environments can be spun up in 15 minutes instead of days. State management with S3 backend and DynamoDB locking is rock solid. #terraform #iac #devops #automation

Kubernetes cluster is finally production-ready. Auto-scaling handles traffic spikes beautifully! Set up HPA based on custom metrics from our application. During Black Friday, the cluster scaled from 10 to 45 pods seamlessly. Zero downtime despite 10x normal traffic. Worth every hour of setup! #kubernetes #k8s #devops #autoscaling

VPC peering between our staging and production accounts. Network isolation done right! Each environment has its own AWS account. Transit Gateway connects them when needed. Security groups are locked down to specific CIDR blocks. The network diagram finally makes sense to auditors! #aws #vpc #security #networking

Implemented blue-green deployment. Zero-downtime releases are now our standard! AWS CodeDeploy handles the traffic shifting automatically. Rollbacks happen in seconds if health checks fail. The team deploys with confidence now - even on Fridays. Well, maybe not Fridays. #deployment #devops #cloud #zerodowntime

Disaster recovery drill successful! RTO of 15 minutes achieved with our backup strategy. Tested full region failover on AWS. Route53 health checks trigger automatic DNS failover. Cross-region RDS replicas were the key. Documented everything and trained the team. Sleep better knowing we're prepared! #disasterrecovery #cloud #backup #businesscontinuity
