Hear @monkchips chat with Paul Brookes, senior AI engineer at @turintechai, about making AI inference faster and cheaper on the MonkCast redmonk.com/videos/paul-br…

@red___square @googlecloud @steren @monkchips It's great for its target use cases! If you want to run apps (Java, Python, Go, etc) or functions, need long timeouts, major CPU or RAM allocations, GPUs, services/jobs/workers, and access to all sorts of Cloud services, Cloud Run is an ideal bet.

progressive delivery in the agent era

Without a doubt, @redmonk gets developers. I was honored when @monkchips reached out to talk about the Cloud Run story. In this interview, I shared Cloud Run facts I never shared before. Check it out:

@IBM @redmonk @sogrady 👍

@redmonk @monkchips @sogrady Thanks for joining us!

Live from #IBMThink 2026 in Boston, RedMonk’s co-founders @monkchips & @sogrady share their key takeaways from the event. redmonk.com/videos/qt-ibm-…

Today is a hard day. I shared this note with the @linear team today: We’ve made the difficult decision to increase our workforce. This is not a cost-cutting exercise or a reflection of anyone’s performance. We’re simply reimagining every role for the agentic AI era. We’re hiring. We’re sorry about that.

she's so fucking smart

Hear @monkchips & @KateHolterhoff share their takeaways from #GoogleCloudNext 2026 in Las Vegas. The conversation covers multi-agent orchestration, highlighted by @Google's Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform & cross-cloud data connectivity via Iceberg redmonk.com/videos/qt-goog…

was talking to some folks a couple of weeks about the costs of the AI build out, but realized i hadn't run the numbers in a bit. so i did that. redmonk.com/sogrady/2026/0…

@steren Not even sure I can DM on this thing anymore. Ping me on bluesky. Failing that James at my company name dot com will work just fine thx 🙏🏻

@monkchips I'd love to. There's a lot to share. Let's continue in DM

In 2025, the number of Cloud Run external monthly active developers and applications doubled. If you are running AI Agents, vibe coded apps, AI inference, or scalable apps, there's something new for you at Next ‘26:

@sogrady @AerLingus ☘️💪🏻

big shout out to the @AerLingus gate crew who was On It and now has mom and kid sitting together and me in the window seat directly across

@sogrady @AerLingus Love the Irish

@monkchips @AerLingus found a sympathetic gate agent so two of us at least should be sorted, thankfully

not super thrilled with @AerLingus for splitting up our family for a seven and a half hour return flight, forcing a ten year old to fly by herself in a middle seat between two strangers

@sogrady @AerLingus Negotiate with kindness. If I was on the flight I might hate it, being an aisle person, but i also might do it.

@monkchips @AerLingus problem is we’re all in middle seats so we have nothing to negotiate with. people in middle seats in front of us offered, but they’re too far forward. best case someone doesn’t check in after the flight closes.

@threepointone 😭

@monkchips I am extremely worried about that

had at least 3 conversations in the last couple of weeks with very very senior engineers who were ready to leave the industry but ai brought back the joy in their careers

@marktechson @ballen_clt Yeah he crushed it

Young @ballen_clt being outstanding at Google Cloud Next 2026. "Don't chat with me about change, partner with me to safely implement change" BARS ⚡⚡⚡

It was pretty cool to get a sneak preview of the #googlecloudnext developer keynote demos backstage - impressive multi month work happens behind the scenes! Thank you @rseroter @rhoshimi Ashely & team! /cc @adayaratna7t7 @monkchips @sarbjeetjohal @KateHolterhoff @pnashawaty & more
