Production Backend

The skills that keep a backend boring in production. API contracts, schema design and safe migrations, indexes from real query plans, idempotent jobs and webhooks, rate limits, and the tracing you need when something still goes wrong at 2 a.m.

Best for Backend and full-stack engineers responsible for an API in production.
