Abstract
At monday.com, we’ve learned that performance bottlenecks are never solved—only relocated. This became critical as AI and user-built apps introduced unpredictable traffic that traditional benchmarks couldn't handle.
We shifted from manual tuning to performance-oriented platform design, deploying adaptive guardrails in just three months. These constraints protect system stability while allowing for rapid, custom innovation.
This session breaks down how to build resilient, extensible platforms. Learn which assumptions failed, which guardrails work, and how to keep APIs fast when you no longer control the client.
