Article has so much fluff and only some very coarse information like (we sharded writes, yay!). Almost no detail just keywords for SEO, or whatever they’re aiming for.
There’s also a lot of repetition. Maybe it was AI generated…?
I remember coming across an article from NYCMesh which looked interesting ("Administrating the Mesh" - https://www.nycmesh.net/blog/datadog/) which made sense all the way until they put Datadog on top of everything, and I asked myself:
> What the hell, how is using a centralized service for managing a decentralized mesh a suitable solution? Did the author get employed by Datadog or what happened?
Then I got curious and lo and behold; the author was indeed hired by Datadog (and still works there AFAIK), effectively compromising the entire article and the project itself, because of their new employer.
