R&D

WE BUILD THINGS
BECAUSE THEY'RE HARD.

ADGSTUDIOS doesn't only build commercial software. It investigates difficult technical problems — kernels, drivers, proxies, unikernels, graphics, AI, GPU compute, PLCs, robotics, reverse engineering and unusual hardware/software integrations. If a problem is technically interesting, it's worth investigating.

Building a Reverse Proxy From Scratch

Implementing HTTP request routing, connection handling and load distribution without a framework, to understand what a proxy actually does.
