We believe that developer experience should be a priority rather than an afterthought. 🛠️
By introducing Meta-Upsun, we have enabled dynamic validation schemas and version enumeration for services and runtimes. ☁️ 🚀
These updates to Schemastore and our API provide smarter validation and a significantly improved developer experience. 💡 ⚡

Oh that's just cool right there
Fully automatic Jenkins Configuration as Code that deploys Wanderland.
Wanderland eating its own tail, custom agent & controller images built using Wanderland's core, routes that can be consumed by Rack or Commander. HTTP or CLI, whatever you need at the moment.
Jenkins eats a CasC config that includes a templated job so I can bootstrap everything in one go, completely in configmaps. Add a job to projects.yml, bare minimum to get the repo down and setup external context for Jenkins itself. Jenkins handles ephemeral pods with whatever version of Wanderland you need baked in.
Need a job, push rebuild when you need to, it hot reloads itself. Run your own or share, they're not /that big/ when they're just launchers :)
Wanderland bootstraps from YAML with the routes and tools your project needs inside, maybe a bit of Ruby if one of the packs doesn't cover it. `#call` and helpers.
Neat

On May 19–20, 2026, Railway went completely offline for 8 hours after Google Cloud incorrectly suspended their production account.
The wild part? The suspension was triggered by automation.
A single upstream provider became a single point of failure.
Millions impacted.

Running AI agents locally is a bit like giving a robot the keys to your house and hoping it only cleans the floors. 🏠
Local sandboxing works for simple coding but it often lacks the production data and scale needed for real validation. 💡 🏗️
Find out why cloud sandboxes are the better way to build safe and effective AI workflows. 👉 https://developer.upsun.com/posts/tutorials/sandboxing-ai-agents-on-upsun

I will be taking the Cloud Native Days Romania stage in 30 minutes!!! Unfortunately Márk isn't feeling well so will be giving the talk solo.
Head to "Atlas 1" at 11am to see our talk "Kube-Oddities - the quirks that keep Kubernetes interesting". I promise you it's going to be a fun one! 😁

🛠️ Tendencias SysAdmin
El rol del administrador de sistemas ha mutado. Las claves hoy son:
🏗️ Platform Engineering: Menos tickets, más portales de autoservicio para devs.
🤖 AIOps: IA que predice fallos y automatiza la respuesta ante incidentes.
🛡️ Ciberseguridad Preventiva: Zero Trust como norma y defensa proactiva con IA.
🌐 Edge & Hybrid Cloud: Gestionar infraestructura distribuida es el nuevo estándar.

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.

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. 🎉

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.

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. -

Aww... smol-button
Look how helpful smol-button is. Just a general purpose event emitter.
Now... all I need is a general purpose stuff doer to wire up to a general purpose stuff starter. Where can I find one of those I wander?
Oh right

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.

🚀 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
🎤 I gave a lightning talk at KubeCon EU on taming non-determinism in AI-augmented platforms — link inside!https://pemonthly.com/p/platform-engineering-monthly-april-c55?r=1vmajm

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.

DevOps gave us speed.
Platform Engineering gives us scale.
Internal platforms are becoming the new standard:
→ Self-service infra
→ Standardised workflows
→ Better developer experienceThis is where teams are heading next.

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.
