Anh Vu: From Project Mindset to Product Thinking - Leading Client Transformation Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Anh describes a transformative collaboration experience while building multiple websites for a client. Over time, his team recognized significant commonalities between projects and saw the opportunity to create reusable components for future work. However, they faced resistance when trying to shift the client's mindset from short-term project delivery to long-term product thinking. The business stakeholders remained focused on immediate project completion rather than investing in sustainable, reusable solutions. Anh's approach to leading this change involved presenting concrete evidence from previous projects to demonstrate the tangible benefits of component reusability. Rather than just proposing the idea theoretically, they suggested implementing reusable components immediately within the current project, showing rather than just telling. His strategy centered on providing clear evidence of benefits and demonstrating achievability, making the transition from project to product mindset more tangible and less risky for the client. In this episode, we refer to the book “From Project to Product” by Mik Kersten. Self-reflection Question: How might you help your stakeholders see beyond immediate deliverables to recognize the long-term value of sustainable practices and reusable solutions?

I'm seen various ways to represent this such as infrastructure layer, MLOps layer, models, data layer (typically RAG), etc. How do you break up the stack into individual componentsTopic 4 - My mind immediately jumps to similarities in the DevOps space. Abstraction layers and components like Docker and containers comes to mind, integration into CI/CD pipelines, etc. I feel like MLOps is it's own thing with specific tools and workflows. Does this all come together and if so how?Topic 5 - Also, what does this mean for versioning and lifecycle management of the models and the data?Topic 6 - We are seeing more and more data pipelines with backed by multiple models, sometimes in multiple locations.

Anh Vu: From Individual Stars to Team Players - Transforming Competitive Developers Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Anh recounts his first Scrum project as a Scrum Master for a payment company, leading a team of five developers working on a new product with new technology and devices. The challenge was compounded by the fact that this was a completely new team where members didn't know each other. What started as an attempt to make work visible quickly deteriorated when developers began competing to prove they were the best rather than collaborating toward shared goals. Each developer focused solely on their individual tasks without considering the overall outcome, and when bugs appeared at the end of sprints, blame games began. This anti-pattern of developers not prioritizing team results created a cycle where team members wouldn't help each other, ultimately undermining the project's success. Anh's key learning was that the root problem wasn't process-related but trust-related, and as a Scrum Master, addressing surface-level issues isn't enough - the real work lies in building foundational trust within the team. Self-reflection Question: In your current team, are individual achievements being celebrated more than collective success, and how might this be affecting overall team trust and collaboration? Featured Book of the Week: The Five Dysfunctions of a Team Anh recommends "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team" as essential reading for understanding team dynamics. He emphasizes that trust is the basic foundation for people to succeed together, and this book provides both the why and the how for building that trust. According to Anh, trust serves as the foundation for all teams, making it crucial knowledge for both Scrum Masters and Project Managers who need to facilitate effective team collaboration.

A $10 billion fraud vector is currently exploiting a common feature in many cloud-native applications: the SMS verification flow. This isn't a traditional breach. Instead of stealing data, adversaries use bots to trigger costs that are quietly absorbed into your company's operational budget, often showing up as an inflated cell phone or marketing bill.We spoke to Frank Teruel, COO at Arkose Labs about how this fraud works at a technical level and why modern, automated cloud workflows can be a perfect hiding place for these costly attacks. He also shares a story of how a single cloud container was hijacked, costing a company half a million dollars in compute costs for crypto mining over one weekend.This is a critical conversation for anyone working in cloud security, DevOps, and engineering who wants to understand the financial risks embedded in the very architecture of their applications.Guest Socials - Frank's LinkedinPodcast Twitter - @CloudSecPod If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube- Cloud Security Newsletter - Cloud Security BootCampIf you are interested in AI Cybersecurity, you can check out our sister podcast - AI Cybersecurity PodcastQuestions asked:(00:00) The $10 Billion Invisible Threat(02:40) Frank Teruel's Journey into Digital Identity(03:35) Why Identity Remains a Weak Spot for Cybersecurity(05:35) The Evolution of SMS Fraud(07:20) The "$5M Surprise Bill" Story(08:55) What is SMS Toll Fraud?(11:19) Does WAF Catch SMS Fraud?(12:49) Cloud vs. On-Prem: Is One Safer From SMS Fraud?(14:00) Does Single Sign-On Help With This?(15:55) How a Gaming Attack Becomes a Bank Heist(24:54) How AI is Weaponized for Cloud Attacks(25:35) The $500k Cloud Bill from a Hijacked Container(31:18) The Attack Vectors Cloud Teams Underestimate(35:30) What Are "Smart Bots"?(36:46) Where to Start Building a Program Around Fraud?(40:16) Fun Questions: Grandkids, Cooking & Music

Secure your privacy with Surfshark! Enter coupon code BRAVESEA for an extra 4 months at www.surfshark.com/BRAVESEA Bernard Leong, founder of Dorje AI and host of Analyse Asia, joins Jeremy Au to explore how AI is transforming software development, business models, and professional roles across Southeast Asia. They break down why dev houses are losing ground, how AI accelerates coding and reshapes team structures, and why traditional SaaS and education models must evolve. Bernard shares how he replaced an outsourced dev team using AI tools, the dangers of hallucinated code libraries, and his vision for a new enterprise software model powered by prompt engineering and cloud-based trust. 00:42: Traditional software development can't keep up with AI timelines: Bernard shares how he replaced a dev house that took five months with a feature he built in 20 minutes using 50 AI prompts during a flight. This led to firing the team and redesigning the internal workflow around speed and AI tools. 06:26: Frontend moves fast with AI, but backend demands real engineering: While vibe coding speeds up prototypes, Bernard highlights backend risks like hallucinated libraries from ChatGPT. He stresses the need for strong DevOps rules, audit trails, and secure infrastructure to prevent system vulnerabilities. 09:18: Dev houses need to reskill or become obsolete: Bernard criticizes dev houses for slow JIRA-based processes and poor QA. His lean team rebuilt what took five months in just six weeks by focusing on code quality, automation, and prompt engineering. He urges retraining junior developers to stay relevant. 20:43: AI is replacing repetitive junior roles across professions: Bernard sees AI displacing junior coders, lawyers, accountants, and consultants. He shares how his ex-lawyer wife saw this coming, and cites an MIT study where only senior professionals could spot and fix AI mistakes, while juniors added little value. 23:39: Education must shift from banning AI to measuring real thinking: Bernard describes showing students how ChatGPT completes their essays in seconds. He calls for testing reasoning and prompting skills rather than memorization. 31:57: Organizations will become lean, AI-native teams: Bernard predicts companies will move from pyramids to diamond-shaped org charts. He now trials contractors and only hires those who scale with AI.

Anh Vu: The Hidden Cost of Skipping Scrum Ceremonies Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Anh shares his experience as a new Project Manager who was confident about understanding Scrum but quickly discovered the complexity of implementing it effectively. His team's daily meetings turned into lengthy debates about solutions, consuming excessive time and energy, leading team members to complain about meeting overload. When the team suggested moving discussions to Slack to avoid meetings, this created new problems with missed insights and additional coordination challenges. Anh explains how they fell into the "Scrum-but" anti-pattern, where teams claim to use Scrum while avoiding its core practices. The real learning came when he realized that successful framework implementation requires connecting core values with mechanics - for example, linking transparency from Scrum values to actual practices. His key insight: always share the "why" behind everything you do, and remember the Shu-Ha-Ri principle - make it work first before making changes. Self-reflection Question: How might you be unconsciously implementing "framework-but" patterns in your current role, and what core values should you reconnect with your daily practices?

Aviatrix survey reveals only 8% of enterprises have effective Zero Trust — and why network security needs to catch up “Without all three legs, you don't have a stool — therefore, you don't really have Zero Trust.” — Doug Merritt, CEO, Aviatrix In a revealing interview with Technology Reseller News, Aviatrix CEO Doug Merritt joins publisher Doug Green to spotlight the cloud security gap most enterprises don't yet realize they have — and what Aviatrix is doing to solve it. Drawing on a just-released survey of 403 U.S. IT professionals, Merritt paints a sobering picture: only 8% of respondents believe they have an effective Zero Trust security stance in the cloud. While identity and endpoint protections have advanced, the third critical leg — network security — is largely missing. That gap, says Merritt, is what Aviatrix is closing with its Cloud Native Security Fabric (CNSF). Founded by a pioneering female Cisco engineer, Aviatrix brings deep roots in software-defined networking and cloud infrastructure. Today, the company is evolving into a cloud security leader by embedding inline network protection that adapts to cloud-native realities: atomized perimeters, ephemeral workloads, and increasingly complex DevOps pipelines. “The internet is now the enterprise network,” Merritt explains. “Your perimeter isn't five data centers — it's tens of thousands of ephemeral endpoints, APIs, and SaaS services.” Key insights from the podcast include: Why CNSF matters: CNSF forms the third leg of a Zero Trust framework alongside identity and endpoint security — bringing visibility, enforcement, and micro/macrosegmentation into cloud network traffic. Alarming survey findings: 2 out of 3 enterprises struggle with deploying cloud firewalls, over 50% cite visibility blind spots, and 85% report difficulties securing DevOps pipelines. Cloud threats on the rise: The shift to agentic AI and increasingly automated cyber threats make it essential to monitor east-west and egress traffic within the cloud — stopping lateral movement and command-and-control attacks before they spread. Channel opportunity: Aviatrix offers a partner-friendly CNSF solution that complements existing tools like CrowdStrike, Zscaler, Wiz, and cloud-native firewalls — with modular deployment, flexible integration, and a well-designed partner program. For organizations seeking to close their cloud network security blind spots, Aviatrix provides a free Network Security Blind Spot Assessment. And for those wanting to dig deeper, the full survey is available at aviatrix.com/resources. Learn more: https://aviatrix.com

Reliable software shouldn't be an accident, but for most developers it is. Jeremy Edberg, CEO of DBOS and the guy who scaled Reddit and Netflix, joins Corey Quinn to talk about his wild idea of saving your entire app into a database so it can never really break. They chat about Jeremy's "build for three" rule, a plan for scale without going crazy, why he set Reddit's servers to Arizona time to dodge daylight saving time, and how DBOS makes your app as tough as your data. Plus, Jeremy shares his brutally honest take on distributed systems cargo cult, autonomous AI testing, and why making it easy for customers to leave actually keeps them around.Public Bio: Jeremy is an angel investor and advisor for various incubators and startups, and the CEO of DBOS. He was the founding Reliability Engineer for Netflix and before that he ran ops for reddit as its first engineering hire. Jeremy also tech-edited the highly acclaimed AWS for Dummies, and he is one of the six original AWS Heroes.

No episódio 175 do Kubicast, recebemos o especialista Luriel Santana para um duelo de ideias entre DevOps e Site Reliability Engineering (SRE). Entre cafés e risadas, mergulhamos em discussões sobre cultura organizacional, automação de infraestrutura, métricas de confiabilidade e práticas de campo que vão desde data centers em Angola até pipelines modernos em nuvem.1. O Panorama: DevOps e SRE no MercadoDesde seu surgimento, o movimento DevOps trouxe um sopro de velocidade e integração entre equipes de desenvolvimento e operações. Já o SRE, idealizado pelo Google, elevou o patamar ao introduzir métricas claras (SLIs, SLOs e SLAs) e processos de gestão de erros. Nesta batalha, não há um “vencedor único”: DevOps acelera a entrega; SRE garante que ela aconteça sem interrupções.2. Lições de Campo em AngolaLuriel compartilhou conosco suas aventuras em data centers físicos, rodando Linux e configurando roteadores Cisco numa das regiões mais desafiadoras do continente africano. A mensagem foi clara: sem automação mínima, manter servidores operando em condições extremas vira gargalo. Foi ali que aprendemos a importância de Infrastructure as Code e do versionamento de configurações.3. Cultura vs FerramentalFrequentemente, equipes se apaixonam por ferramentas e esquecem a cultura. Discutimos como pipelines de CI/CD, contêineres e orquestração Kubernetes só fazem sentido quando há um mindset de colaboração e responsabilidade compartilhada. Do contrário, viram apenas mais uma “caixinha de truques” sem resultados consistentes.4. Métricas de Confiabilidade: SLOs e SLIs na PráticaA gente explorou exemplos de SLOs para aplicações críticas e viu que definir limites aceitáveis de erro é tanto arte quanto ciência. Falamos dos trade‑offs entre velocidade e estabilidade, e de como o roteamento de incidentes pode se apoiar em dashboards bem configurados — sem esquecer dos alertas que evitam alert fatigue.5. Pandemia e Adoção AceleradaA crise global empurrou muitas empresas para a nuvem e para práticas de automação. Discutimos como o trabalho remoto reforçou a necessidade de automação e infraestrutura resiliente, e refletimos sobre cases de pipelines que nasceram em questão de dias para suportar picos inesperados.Conclusão e Próximos PassosSaímos deste episódio com uma certeza: DevOps e SRE não são antagonistas, mas sim parceiros na jornada de entregar software com velocidade e confiabilidade. Se você está começando, comece definindo seus SLIs. Para os veteranos, a dica é revisitar processos e investir em cultura.Links e Recomendações:Conecte-se com Luriel Santana no LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lurielsantana/João Brito - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juniorjbnAssista ao FilmeTEArapia - https://youtu.be/M4QFmW_HZh0?si=HIXBDWZJ8yPbpflMSaiba mais sobre o DevOps Days Feira de Santana: https://www.devopsdays.org/events/2025-feira-de-santana/Confira o Canal Pro Evolua: https://www.youtube.com/c/ProEvoluaDescubra o Projeto Zero CVE (Getup): https://getup.io/zerocveParticipe de nosso programa de acesso antecipado e tenha um ambiente mais seguro em instantes! https://getup.io/zerocve
Ireland's AI startup scene received a significant boost as PorterShed officially launched its AI Venture Forge Accelerator in Galway City.

Zack Kayser, Staff Software Engineer at cars.com, joins Elixir Wizards Sundi Myint and Charles Suggs to discuss how Cars.com adopted a server-driven UI (SDUI) architecture powered by Elixir and GraphQL to deliver consistent, updatable interfaces across web, iOS, and Android. We explore why SDUI matters for feature velocity, how a mature design system and schema planning make it feasible, and what it takes, culturally and technically, to move UI logic from client code into a unified backend. Key topics discussed in this episode: SDUI fundamentals and how it differs from traditional server-side rendering GraphQL as the single source of truth for UI components and layouts Defining abstract UI components on the server to eliminate duplicate logic Leveraging a robust design system as the foundation for SDUI success API-first development and cross-team coordination for schema changes Mock data strategies for early UI feedback without breaking clients Handling breaking changes and hot-fix deployments via server-side updates Enabling flexible layouts and A/B testing through server-controlled ordering Balancing server-driven vs. client-managed UI Iterative SDUI rollout versus “big-bang” migrations in large codebases Using type specs and Dialyxir for clear cross-team communication Integration testing at the GraphQL layer to catch UI regressions early Quality engineering's role in validating server-driven interfaces Production rollback strategies across web and native platforms Considerations for greenfield projects adopting SDUI from day one Zack and Ethan's upcoming Instrumenting Elixir Apps book Links mentioned: https://cars.com https://github.com/absinthe-graphql/absinthe Telemetry & Observability for Elixir Apps Ep: https://youtu.be/1V2xEPqqCso https://www.phoenixframework.org/blog/phoenix-liveview-1.0-released https://hexdocs.pm/phoenixliveview/assigns-eex.html https://graphql.org/ https://tailwindcss.com/ https://github.com/jeremyjh/dialyxir https://github.com/rrrene/credo GraphQL Schema https://graphql.org/learn/schema/ SwiftUI https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/ Kotlin https://kotlinlang.org/ https://medium.com/airbnb-engineering/a-deep-dive-into-airbnbs-server-driven-ui-system-842244c5f5 Zack's Twitter: https://x.com/kayserzl/ Zack's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zack-kayser-93b96b88 Special Guest: Zack Kayser.
Welcome to a special FirstMark Deep Dive edition of the MAD Podcast. In this episode, Matt Turck and David Waltcher unpack the explosive impact of generative AI on engineering — hands-down the biggest shift the field has seen in decades. You'll get a front-row seat to the real numbers and stories behind the AI code revolution, including how companies like Cursor hit a $500M valuation in record time, and why GitHub Copilot now serves 15 million developers.Matt and David break down the six trends that shaped the last 20 years of developer tools, and reveal why coding is the #1 use case for generative AI (hint: it's all about public data, structure, and ROI). You'll hear how AI is making engineering teams 30-50% faster, but also why this speed is breaking traditional DevOps, overwhelming QA, and turning top engineers into full-time code reviewers.We get specific: 82% of engineers are already using AI to write code, but this surge is creating new security vulnerabilities, reliability issues, and a total rethink of team roles. You'll learn why code review and prompt engineering are now the most valuable skills, and why computer science grads are suddenly facing some of the highest unemployment rates.We also draw wild historical parallels—from the Gutenberg Press to the Ford assembly line—to show how every productivity boom creates new problems and entire industries to solve them. Plus: what CTOs need to know about hiring, governance, and architecture in the AI era, and why being “AI native” can make a startup more credible than a 10-year-old giant.Matt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturckDavid WaltcherLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidwaltcherX/Twitter - https://x.com/davidwaltcherFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCap(00:00) Intro & episode setup (01:50) The 6 waves that led to GenAI engineering (04:30) Why coding is such fertile ground for Generative AI (08:25) Break-out dev-tool winners: Cursor, Copilot, Replit, V0 (11:25) Early stats: Teams Are Shipping Code Faster with AI (13:32) Copilots vs Autonomous Agents: The Current Reality (14:14) Lessons from History: Every Tech Boom Creates New Problems (21:53) FirstMark Survey: The Headaches AI Is Creating for Developers (22:53) What's Now Breaking: Security, CI/CD flakes, QA Overload (29:16) The New CTO Playbook to Adapt to the AI Revolution (33:23) What Happens to Engineering Orgs if Everyone is a Coder?

The Daytona founders - Ivan Burazin and Vedran Jukic - discuss their pivot to an AI agent cloud. We dig into the new infrastructure requirements of developing agents that need their own sandboxes to operate in.A year ago, we had them on to talk about Daytona giving us remote development environments for humans, and they have now pivoted the company to focusing on providing cloud hosting environments for AI agents to operate.I suspect this is something we're all gonna eventually need to tackle as we work to automate more of our software engineering.
