Overview
CraftVerse wanted to focus on content and community, not infrastructure firefighting. They handed us operations for their proxy network and backend servers.
The challenge
Their small team was on-call around the clock and burning out, with no formal incident process or capacity planning for event spikes.
Our approach
- Containerized Paper/Velocity workloads onto a managed Kubernetes fleet.
- Established SLOs, alerting, and a follow-the-sun on-call rotation.
- Automated capacity scaling around events and peak windows.
- Instituted blameless post-incident reviews.
The results
Two years in, CraftVerse has had zero unplanned outages during peak hours, and its team is fully focused on building the network.
