Maturing
It’s been about six months since Bucket 1.0 was released. Back then, I was a solo founder trying to work my way towards a Minimum Viable Product, and my first customers. I did get customers, but, soon after launching, I found myself knee-deep in operations and maintenance. Bucket was suddenly receiving millions of events per day and the application was struggling to keep up with the load. I managed to fix the bottlenecks, but I didn’t have any time for new features or marketing efforts - and new issues kept bubbling up.
