This post traces the full lifecycle of that field, from a single keypair through Squads multisig and SPL Governance, to the irreversible --final flag that freezes a program forever. https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-program-deploy-upgrade-buffer/ Sat, 02 May 2026 10:00:00 +0700 https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-program-deploy-upgrade-buffer/ Solana program deploys are not atomic. They are a multi-step dance involving a temporary Buffer account, chunked bytecode writes, and a final activation step that creates or replaces the program. This post walks through the full deploy and upgrade flows, explains why Buffer accounts exist, and shows how to recover SOL when a deploy fails midway. https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-program-lifecycle-two-account-model/ Sat, 25 Apr 2026 10:00:00 +0700 https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-program-lifecycle-two-account-model/ Solana programs aren't stored in a single account. They're split across two linked accounts managed by the BPF Loader: a tiny Program Account that acts as the identity, and a larger ProgramData Account that holds the bytecode. This post breaks down the two-account model, explains why program IDs never change across upgrades, and shows how this architecture makes hot-swappable code possible. https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-compute-units/ Tue, 21 Apr 2026 10:00:00 +0700 https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-compute-units/ A practical guide to Solana compute units (CU): understanding the 200K per-instruction and 1.4M per-transaction budgets, why operations cost different amounts, measuring CU usage with anchor test and simulateTransaction, and applying optimization patterns to write efficient Anchor programs. https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-accounts-storage-rent/ Sat, 18 Apr 2026 10:00:00 +0700 https://widnyana.web.id/en/posts/solana/solana-accounts-storage-rent/ A deep guide to the Solana account model, on-chain storage with Borsh serialization, rent-exempt minimums, closing accounts, and Program Derived Addresses (PDAs): the fundamentals every Solana developer needs to understand.
