Project Details

Technical implementation and architecture overview

Consistent hashing

Implemented consistent hashing algorithm for distributed key placement with automatic node addition and removal.

Automatic failover

Built failover mechanisms that automatically redirect traffic when nodes become unavailable, maintaining service availability.

FAQs

What do you build? +

Web3, AI, Systems, Web. End-to-end. One person. From idea to deployed.

Do you do consultancy? +

Yes. Architecture, stack selection, code reviews. Hourly or contract. Get unstuck fast.

How fast can you deliver? +

Fast. I focus on going live. Less bureaucracy, more shipping. Let's discuss timeline.

One person for everything? +

Yes. Frontend, backend, infrastructure, deployment. Complete systems. End-to-end.
