Deep dives into high-performance backend engineering, Rust, and scalable Web3 data infrastructure.
A comprehensive 3-part guide on ingesting, decoding, and analyzing the Solana firehose with zero data loss using Rust, NATS, and ClickHouse.
ALL NOTES
Why REST polling fails at Solana scale, breaking down RPC math for the Helius Professional Plan, and designing a zero-latency VPC topology.
Connection resilience with exponential backoff, zero-copy decoding with the carbon crate, and bounded mpsc channels for backpressure-safe NATS publishing.
NATS JetStream persistence, a production ClickHouse MergeTree schema for billions of swap rows, batch ingestion with tokio, and a decoupled Axum WebSocket fanout layer.
