A system that won't fall over at peak
We design and build high-load backends: growth-ready architecture, code, load proof, and delivery. First step — Discovery in 1–2 weeks with a plan and estimate.
NineLab LLC · contract · your Git & IaC · 25M+ msg/day · 15k+ connections

* More than 15 major Enterprise projects are under NDA. Detailed case studies and architecture diagrams available upon request.
What you get
Discovery
1–2 weeks
Load profile, bottlenecks, target architecture, and a build estimate before coding starts.
Build
for peak, not demos
Services, cache, queues, DB, and autoscaling with headroom for marketing spikes.
Proof
numbers before release
Load runs and p99/RPS metrics — prove capacity before the campaign, not after a 503.
Your outcome
25M+
Messages per day in an IoT case — stable telemetry stream.
15k
Concurrent connections at peak — stress-tested before the campaign.
15k RPS
E-commerce API with no Black Friday 503s — API under 180 ms.

Why NineLab?
Senior team with production High-Load — not diagrams-only consulting
We split build vs load testing: different intent, different landing pages
Code, IaC, and runbooks stay with you under a NineLab LLC contract
ad spend burned
An hour of downtime on a sale or viral spike costs more than Discovery and reinforcement. We size headroom before you spend on traffic.

How it works
Discovery
Load, SLOs, stack, risks. Plan and budget range locked.
Architecture
Hot paths, cache/sharding, resilience, zero-downtime migration plan.
Build
1–2 week demos, CI/CD and monitoring from early iterations.
Peak & handoff
Load runs, runbooks, code in your Git — or ongoing support.
Senior Core
Architecture, backend, and operations — always on the project. Not an agency with a hundred juniors, but an official contractor with contractual accountability.
