the story

// 01 · the challenge

Dinner rush is
a load profile.

BizzDeck needed a backend restaurants could bet their evenings on, highly available, quick to ship, priced like a startup, on a deadline that didn't move.

Traffic that spikes at mealtimes and sleeps at dawn is exactly what serverless is for, if you can do it without cold-start pain or runaway bills.

// 02 · what we built

Built to spike,
priced to sleep.

Serverless by design

Infrastructure that scales with service hours: busy at eight, nearly free at four in the morning.

An API layer that stays quick

Endpoints for menus, orders and sales built for the dinner-rush spike, not the average.

Postgres as the source of truth

Orders, accounts and sales in one reliable relational core: boring on purpose, correct always.

Shipped inside the deadline

Production-ready on the date promised, with headroom for the restaurants still to come.

// 03 · the stack

Boring where it should be.

Proven parts, assembled carefully. Novelty goes into the product, not the plumbing.
