Hello, LONG R&D
An introduction to LONG R&D — a personal space for writing about site reliability engineering, infrastructure, and building systems that last.
Welcome to LONG R&D — a personal research and writing space by Hoang-Long Nguyen.
This is where I write about site reliability engineering, infrastructure, and the craft of keeping systems running at scale. I work as an SRE at One Mount Group, where I spend most of my time on Kubernetes, GCP, observability, and the slow, unglamorous work of making things more reliable.
What to expect
Notes on real problems: SLO design, incident response, on-call ergonomics, Terraform patterns, GitOps workflows, and whatever I happen to be thinking through at the time. Not tutorials — more like field notes.
This site
Built with Astro, a static site generator that ships zero JavaScript by default. Hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Fast, cheap, and out of the way — which is how infrastructure should feel.
