  1. As Kubernetes environments scale, integration complexity becomes a key operational challenge for platform teams.

    Great to see @mavrickrishi’s article featured by @TheNewStack in collaboration with CNCF, exploring production-grade reliability with projects like Prometheus, Cilium, and GitOps workflows.

  3. AWS DevOps Agent case studies are revealing an important reality:

    AI is proving to be a mirror, not magic.

    Strong DevOps foundations accelerate faster.
    Weak operational foundations get exposed quicker.

  8. DevOpsDays Zurich 2026 is over. ❤️

    Two great days full of talks, open spaces, ignite sessions with auto-slides, community discussions, and many great conversations at our booth.

    Proud to have supported the event since the very first edition in 2016 - already looking forward to the 10th anniversary next year. 🎉

    Our recap:

  9. #PlatformEngineering succeeds when reliability and ergonomics reinforce each other - not compete.

    Pratik Agarwal explores 3 foundational pillars:
    1️⃣ Automated reliability
    2️⃣ Developer ergonomics
    3️⃣ Operator ergonomics

    The result❓ Together, they create a Virtuous Cycle! 🔄

  10. Platform Engineering isn’t about control - it’s about clarity.

    Golden paths help developers move faster without the chaos.

    Standardisation is what unlocks real velocity.

  11. Every time when I'm asked by "non tech person", what I am doing for work ... I default to "IT Engineer". But even within our field I'm experiencing misconceptions. Many tie #devops with #cloud. Or maybe it's just me thinking otherwise 😅
    And to be fair many of our job activities are a bit here a bit there.

  14. DevOpsDays Zurich kicks off tomorrow 🚀

    Excited to see so many familiar faces, meet new ones, and dive into everything DevOps, open source, platform engineering, and cloud native.

    See you there 👋 And come visit us at our booth!

  15. Curating infrastructure choices isn’t limiting innovation,

    It’s enabling teams to move faster with clarity and confidence.

    That’s what we’re building at Obmondo

  16. Everyone loves flexibility in open source.

    But when every engineer picks their own stack… collaboration becomes chaos.

    Standardisation isn’t restriction - it’s what enables teams to scale.

  17. 🎟️🚨 DevOpsDays Zurich is next week in Winterthur - and we've got a few last tickets to give away!

    We're raffling:

    - 1x 2-day pass (May 6-7)

  18. 🚀 Platform Engineering Monthly #29 is out!

    💸 $18k Google Cloud bill despite a $7 budget. Leaked API key, 60k attacker requests, spending caps ignored
    🎯 Coordinated supply chain blitz hits npm, PyPI & Docker Hub in 48 hours supply chain attackers are not slowing down

  19. AI does not stall in the model. It stalls in the operating model.

    Today's models are capable. The bottleneck is process and governance.

    What moves the needle: feedback loops, governance, metrics, decision cadence, supported by platform engineering.

    Not a strategy. An operating model.

    From May 2026, I take this on as Chief AI Officer at Zühlke.

  20. DevOps gave us speed.

    Platform Engineering gives us scale.

    Internal platforms are becoming the new standard:
    → Self-service infra
    → Standardised workflows
    → Better developer experience

    This is where teams are heading next.

  21. Aaron and Shane share some thoughts about attending Kubecon, including the push for European sovereign cloud, how platform engineering might mitigate some of the problems AI is causing, the sense that Kubernetes is mature and boring in a good way now, and our concerns about scope creep.

  23. Heading to DevOpsCon Amsterdam 2026 🇳🇱 (April 20–24)?

    A full week of DevOps, Kubernetes, CI/CD, DevSecOps, and platform engineering — with workshops, real-world sessions, and global networking.

    We’ll be there sharing how RELIANOID supports high-performance, secure, and scalable application delivery in modern cloud-native environments.

    If you're attending, let’s meet 👋

  24. Excited to speak at the 1st Platform Engineering Leaders meetup.

    We’re moving from "Deterministic Code" to "AI Probabilities." I’ll be sharing how leaders must evolve from static gatekeeping to continuous observation to manage AI at scale.

  25. Rootless containers are becoming the baseline for secure environments.

    This deep dive explores how Podman enables rootless execution using user namespaces, what changes compared to traditional container setups, and where limitations still exist.

    Because in many cases, giving containers full root access is simply a bigger slice than needed 🥧

  32. This is seriously the best workflow.

    I just wrote the story of my platform and pushed the buffer to my blog directly. Tomorrow we turn the configuration language I developed for its workflow compiler into a puzzle. Cuz reasons

  33. Specialist Track spotlight: Platform Engineering 🏗️

    Last chance: the CFP closes 29 March. DevOps, SRE, infrastructure, developer experience, and the real-world lessons of building and running platforms at scale.

    You don't need a Python-specific angle, if it's relevant to people who build and run software with Python, we want to hear it. First-time speakers welcome.

  34. #PlatformEngineering sits at the intersection of infrastructure, developer experience & product delivery.

    Scaling Technical Excellence isn’t about more tools - it’s about embedding #DevOps principles - ownership, fast feedback loops, and psychological safety - directly into the developer workflow.

    Learn how to build platforms that teams actually love!

  35. New in Omni: On-ramp for Talos Linux clusters.

    Centralizing infrastructure management shouldn't require a total rebuild of your current environment.

    You can now bring established Talos Linux clusters into Omni via a single CLI command and immediately gain visibility and remote management capabilities while reducing the operational risk of manual cluster rebuilds.

  36. Most organisations are agile, use the cloud, invest in AI. Yet the business impact doesn't show up.

    Because DevOps isn't a toolset. It's a leadership discipline.

  40. New in Talos Linux:

    Out-of-memory handling can proactively identify and evict the relevant, resource-heavy application before it destabilizes the host. This reduces avoidable downtime and ensures the control plane and critical services remain operational.

  41. #K9s Plugins: Debug Kubernetes Like a Pro

    Debugging #Kubernetes workloads is painful, recreating volumes, secrets and configmaps by hand every time. I built a #k9s plugin that spins up a debug pod with everything pre-mounted automatically.

    One keyboard shortcut and you're in a shell with the full container config.

  42. 👟 Adidas evolved their #InfrastructureAsCode model: from centralized one ⇨ a decentralized approach.

    The impact was immediate:
    In just 2 months, 5 teams deployed 81+ new infrastructure stacks by leveraging:
    🔹 Layered IaC modules
    🔹 Automated pipelines
    🔹 Shared frameworks

  43. From 6-month review cycles to 2-hour automated deployments! How❓

    In this #InfoQ video, Jim Gough shares his journey from “accidental architect” to leading a revolution in #APIConnectivity.

    He breaks down the Developer-Security Gap and introduces CALM (Common Architecture Language Model)—an #opensource framework that treats #ArchitectureAsCode.

  45. So now it's my turn for a #getFediHired post. A couple decades in #softwareEngineering, specializing in #CloudNative systems, #Kubernetes and #opentelemetry. I can do #DevOps, #backendDevelopment and #platformEngineering. Languages I've worked in include #goLang, #PHP, #NodeJS and #Python, and I can learn more. Open to hybrid work in the Seattle area or remote work, contract or full-time. Feel free to contact me or boost!

  46. Ended up kicking Docker Hardened Images to the curb.

    The good folks at #Docker decided to update their #Redis image to use a distro-less start (no shell, no other utilities) *without changing the image tag*.

    So when I started up my #Mastodon server after an upgrade, my customization script wouldn’t run in the container and I had to scramble to find an alternative.

    Basically, they broke the contract of immutable image version tags. Won’t trust them again, even if it did harden #security further.

    So this server is back to a good ol’ upstream #PostgreSQL image on #AlpineLinux. And #Valkey on #Alpine, too, because Redis Ltd..’s software licensing shenanigans are sketchy.
