Surge & Scale Engineering

Going viral should be the good problem.

A post hits the front page, a launch outruns the capacity plan, or someone points a botnet at your login page. Team Spartan’s SREs get you through the spike: shed the load you can’t serve, keep the core path up, coordinate the edge defense, and then automate the scaling so the next surge is a dashboard, not a war room.
What We Do

CDN caching and origin protection so spikes hit the edge, not the database

Graceful degradation with kill switches and feature flags for non-critical paths

Post-surge review and capacity plan with measured headroom
