For years, the web was dominated by HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. That stack worked but it came with a hard ceiling on performance. Heavy computation, cryptography, real-time graphics, and advanced simulations were either slow or pushed to native desktop apps. WebAssembly (WASM) breaks that ceiling.It introduces a low-level, high-performance execution layer inside the browser,…

Let’s be clear from the start: REST is not “bad” it’s just often the wrong tool when performance actually matters. If you’re building modern distributed systems, pretending JSON over HTTP/1.1 is enough is intellectual laziness. This is exactly where gRPC earns its place. gRPC was designed for machines talking to machines, not for human-readable…

As modern applications scale, databases inevitably become one of the first and most painful bottlenecks. Vertical scaling adding more CPU, RAM, or faster disks works only up to a point. Beyond that, it becomes expensive, fragile, and fundamentally limited. This is where data sharding stops being an optimization and becomes a survival strategy. What…
