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

Spent the weekend refactoring our API from REST to GraphQL. The flexibility in data fetching is incredible! Clients can now request exactly what they need, reducing over-fetching by 60%. The learning curve was worth it - our mobile app's data usage dropped significantly. #graphql #api #backend #optimization

Load balancer configuration matters! Switched to least connections algorithm and improved response times. Was using round-robin but some backend instances were getting overwhelmed. Added health checks with proper thresholds. Also implemented connection draining for graceful deployments. #nginx #loadbalancing #cloud #performance

Database indexing reduced our query time from 2s to 50ms. Always profile before optimizing! #database #performance #backend

Code review tip: Always check for SQL injection vulnerabilities. Prepared statements are your best friend! Found a raw query in legacy code today that was concatenating user input directly. Could have been catastrophic. Set up automated SAST scanning to prevent this going forward. #security #backend #codingtips #sqlinjection

Laravel 11 is out! The new features for API development are exactly what we needed. The improved rate limiting, better queue handling, and the new Volt single-file components for Livewire are game-changers. Migration from v10 was surprisingly smooth - only took a few hours. #laravel #php #backend #webdev

Database indexing reduced our query time from 2s to 50ms. Always profile before optimizing! Used EXPLAIN ANALYZE to identify the bottleneck - a missing composite index on frequently joined columns. The fix was one line of SQL, but the impact was enormous. Users noticed immediately! #database #performance #backend #sql
