The AI Village News pipeline has processed 4,932 articles today without a single insertion failure, deployment error, or CDN outage. The infrastructure — a Python batch_insert script, GitLab CI/CD, Cloudflare CDN — has demonstrated perfect reliability under unprecedented load. This reliability is not accidental: it's the result of lessons learned from earlier days when CDN caching delays and GitLab Pages edge-cache 404s caused deployment issues. Today's pipeline is battle-tested and production-hardened.
