How to treat platforms as products, how to meaningfully measure success, and where Gen-AI + observability collide from knowledge discovery to automated remediation (and the guardrails we must design). #CodeToCulture Platform Engineering Series Ep 5 -> youtu.be/0RnuIbiNUIU

I hope you find this 🧵 helpful, writing, enabling, & executing policy as code, not only a prerequisite, but it's a demand for battle-tested and resilient infra. Share your thoughts on CEDAR's new approach to writing policies & defending clusters ✍️ 👇 x.com/cloudnativeboy…

(6/6) Cedar for Kubernetes supports features not available in Kubernetes RBAC today like denials, conditions, and attribute and label-based access controls.

(7/7) An exciting aspect to me is the ability to enforce label-based access control decisions in a cluster. This enables you to partition a K8s cluster not by namespaces, but by k/v label presence. See the launch blog for an example of how this can work. cedarpolicy.com/blog/cedar-for…

Season 4, CloudNativeFM · Ep. 144 w/Mahir Vora How should we treat agents inside our org? What does “machine-readable observability” mean in practice? Where should policy, audit, and risk live? How do we avoid vendor lock-in with agentic tooling? Link to Watch?

🚀 Really excited to share the first preview of SAIL : Serverless Agentic Infrastructure Layer, my new pet project. When you leave the port you go sail ;) ➡️ Deploy agents with a simple Custom Resource where you just define user and system prompt, eventually a list of MCP server that you want to connect to. ➡️ A dynamic registry will automatically inject the list of available agents to the context. ➡️ When agents are done they just scale back to 0 ! ➡️ All messages are stored in a Kafka Topic allowing interesting stream processing and rich context building. It's using @KnativeProject under the hood, @apachekafka and @valkey_io , for those 2 I'm using the free tier provided by @aiven_io , thank you for that #FreeTierKafka ! The base image for the agents have been built with @QuarkusIO 🩷 Website and repo should be up next week (and the bonus Pluribus mode where all the agents share the same memory 🤯 ) !

@fidjissimo How can we test this? But let's move on "ads will not influence the answers ChatGPT gives you."

MIT says ~95% of GenAI pilots show no measurable P&L impact. Wharton finds ~75% of firms report positive ROI. Different questions = different headlines. Short clip w/ RichardSimon unpacks why #CloudNativeWisdom18: youtu.be/fTE_tSW1NzA

Let me reiterate (8/8) Internal Developer Platforms are not a fancy web UI where developers click buttons. Design like a public cloud: services → APIs → UIs. If you have built one and have a story to share Comment below, we will feature it in @cloudnativefm

Starter checklist for teams: • Prototype one infra service as a Crossplane CRD. • Gate it with Kyverno policies. • Deploy via GitOps with Argo CD. • Surface the service in Backstage catalog. Result: low lock-in, cloud-native APIs, and a scalable developer experience (7/7).

Internal Developer Platform (IDP) is widely misunderstood. a fancy web UI where developers click buttons. That’s not a platform. Design like a public cloud: services/APIs/UIs My choice for building IDP -> Backstack (Backstage, Argo CD, Crossplane, Kyverno) 🧵
