iamexistin publishes short, practical writing about running cloud infrastructure: servers and networks on AWS, deployment and monitoring habits, security basics and the small routines that keep systems steady.
We don't sell hosting and we don't review vendors. iamexistin is an independent collection of short articles written from direct experience: what to monitor, how to size a server, and how to keep a deployment boring.
The site started as an engineer's notebook of fixes that held up. Over time it grew into a small, focused publication covering ten recurring themes.
New articles are added irregularly, when there is something worth saying. Readers who want to keep up can join the newsletter below; it goes out only when a new piece is published.
