Durgesh Rathod

Lead Software Engineer sharing real Production Bugs, Outages, and Postmortems that actually happen in real companies.

If you’re a Backend Engineer, SRE, DevOps, or Tech Lead tired of theoretical tutorials, this is your place.

I break down the exact bugs that cost money, crashed systems, leaked data, or locked users out — and most importantly, how we fixed them.

Expect:

Deep Production Bug Autopsies

Real incident timelines & root cause analysis

Architecture mistakes in Distributed Systems, Kafka, Databases, Caching & Microservices

Practical prevention tips you can use tomorrow

Occasional GenAI + Python debugging tricks

Whether you’ve been burned by retry storms, cache stampedes, race conditions, or mysterious memory leaks — you’ll find stories here that feel familiar.
