API works ≠ payment trust

Before scaling traffic, verify the quote, currency/provider, return or cancel behavior, matching request log, and balance movement.

Engadget: A bug in AWS has caused some customers’ bills to spike from a few cents to billions of dollars . “Forums and social media were full of posts from uneasy AWS customers detailing their sky-high bills, many in the millions or billions of dollars. One Reddit user even claimed their usage was being billed at $4.2 trillion.”

I guess when a company is extra big, their mistakes can be extra big.

Почему рекуррентных платежей недостаточно для подписочного бизнеса

«У нас есть рекуррентные платежи, значит подписки уже работают». Обычно именно с этого начинается история появления собственной таблицы subscriptions, джобов в кроне для продления доступа, логики расчёта MRR и десятков исключений в коде. Разбираемся, какие задачи на самом деле решают рекуррентные платежи, где заканчивается их зона ответственности и почему многие SaaS-компании рано или поздно приходят к полноценному биллингу.

Забыл продлить VPS? Сделал open‑source панель с напоминаниями и sync API хостеров

В какой‑то момент у меня накопилось несколько VPS у разных провайдеров. Не десятки, но уже достаточно, чтобы каждый месяц ловить себя на одной и той же мысли: «А этот сервер когда оплачивать?» Ссылка на биллинг — где‑то в закладках. Дата продления — в Telegram. Пароль от кабинета — в другом месте. Таблицы, заметки, все разбросано. Пока серверов немного, это ещё работает. Когда их перевалило за 15, начинаешь постоянно все терять. Кто хостер, а что там крутится, вкладки, вкладки, вкладки! Так появилась идея: сделать личный кабинет для своих серверов.
