Welcome to episode 307 of The Cloud Pod – where the forecast is always cloudy! Who else is at a conference? Justin is coming to us this week from sunny San Diego where he's attending FinOps – so we have that news to look forward to for next week. Matt and Ryan are also on hand today to share the latest news from Kubernetes, Salesforce acquisitions, and the strange case of Azure making AWS more cost effective.

This purchase was really about building the data foundation needed for agentic AI to actually work in enterprise environments – we’re talking about combining Informatica’s 30 years of data management expertise with Salesforce’s cloud platform to create what they’re calling a “unified architecture for agentic AI.” This acquisition fills a massive gap in Salesforce’s data management capabilities, bringing in critical pieces like data cataloging, integration, governance, quality controls, and master data management – all the unsexy but absolutely essential plumbing that makes AI agents trustworthy and scalable in real enterprise deployments. The timing here is fascinating, because Informatica literally just announced their own agentic AI offerings last week at Informatica World, so Salesforce is essentially buying a company that’s already pivoted hard into the AI space – rather than trying to build these capabilities from scratch. There’s going to be some interesting overlap with MuleSoft, which Salesforce bought for $6.5 billion back in 2018, but analysts are s
Container-based Linux distributions are gaining traction, especially for edge deployments that demand lightweight and secure operating systems. Talos Linux, developed by Sidero Labs, is purpose-built for Kubernetes with security-first features like a fully immutable file system and disabled SSH access. In a demo, Sidero CTO Andrew Rynhard and Head of Product Justin Garrison explained Talos's design philosophy, highlighting its minimalism and focus on automation. Inspired by CoreOS, Talos removes traditional tools like systemd and Bash, replacing them with machineD, a custom process manager written in Go.Talos emphasizes API-driven management rather than SSH, making Kubernetes cluster operations more scalable and consistent. Its design supports cloud, bare metal, Docker, and edge devices like Raspberry Pi. Kernel immutability is reinforced by ephemeral signing keys. Through Sidero's Omni SaaS, Talos nodes connect securely via WireGuard. The operating system handles all certificates and network connectivity internally, streamlining security and deployment. As Garrison notes, Talos delivers a portable API for “big iron, small iron—no matter what.”Learn more from The New Stack about Sidero Labs: Is Cluster API Really the Future of Kubernetes Deployment?

Full disclosure for everyone out there, I worked for Tobi at Nutanix. Give everyone a brief introduction and a little about your background.Topic 2 - This is a throwback for our long-time listeners. We had Ben Hindman on episode #211 almost 10 years ago, when D2IQ was Mesosphere, and we also spoke to Dave Lester, who was at Twitter back in 2014. I'm not going to ask you to catch everyone up on 10 years of your company and the history… but I will encourage everyone to go back and listen to that podcast. It is an excellent snapshot of the early days of cloud native and containers. Today, we will talk a bit about the state of cloud native. The most recent KubeCon EU was a few months ago. What were your thoughts around the event and the current state of the industry? Topic 3 - What are the most prominent challenges organizations face today with Cloud Native adoption? You hear about the complexity, you hear about Kubernetes is a platform to build platforms… still true?Topic 4 - Where do you think Cloud Native goes in the next 2-3 years? What technologies or design patterns (besides AI, we'll talk about that later) evolve, and where does the next round of adoption come from?Topic 5 - Let's talk about storage and data services quickly. Data services for K8s is messy, really messy at times. Give everyone an overview of the problem at scale and the challenges, especially in multi-cloud environments, which I'm finding more and more.Topic 6 - I'd be remiss if I didn't mention AI and its impact in the space. AI came along and sucked all the air out of the room for a time. How do you think about AI today, now that the dust has settled a bit? Is it just an “app” to run on top?

This week on The Business of Open Source, I spoke with David Aronchick, CEO and founder of Expanso, about luck and timing, building into universal truths and the reasons for Kubernetes' success. Before David founded Expanso (which is behind the project Bacalhau), he was the first non-founding PM on the Kubernetes project, and we kicked off by talking a bit about what made Kubernetes so successful… and you probably can guess that it didn't have to do with having the most awesome technology. A big part of it was that it was the right time and a number of factors in the larger ecosystem were aligned in favor of making Kubernetes a success. It comes down to luck and building to where the puck is going… so how do you know where the puck is going to be a year from now? David talks about selling into basic truths. If you're pegged to a specific technology, you're putting yourself at huge risk. But if you are solving a problem that has always been a problem and is likely to continue to be a problem, you are more likely to be successful. We also talked about Adam Jacob's talk on building a business around open source that he gave at KubeCon Salt Lake City, which you should definitely listen to. Adam Jacob also came on this podcast a year ago, and you should also listen to the episode he did. Lastly, we talked about how hard GTM is, and how David would invest way more into GTM, starting much earlier, if he could start over again. David was at Open Source Founders Summit this year, and you should come next year too!

In deze aflevering van De Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast spreken hosts Ronald Kers (CNCF Ambassador) en Jan Stomphorst (Solutions Architect bij ACC ICT) met Evelien Schellekens, Solutions Architect bij Elastic. We ontmoeten haar tijdens een live opname op de Veluwe, waar de sfeer informeel en energiek is – een perfecte setting voor een spontaan en inhoudelijk gesprek over Kubernetes, logging, observability en certificering.Van astronautendroom naar Kubernetes-certificeringen Evelien vertelt hoe haar IT-carrière begon met het open schroeven van computers samen met haar vader. Inmiddels heeft ze haar sporen verdiend met meerdere Kubernetes-certificeringen – vier in drie dagen tijd! Ze deelt haar aanpak, hoe ze zich voorbereidt, waarom AI soms helpt (en soms juist niet), en wat haar dreef om zich in recordtempo te certificeren.Elastic: meer dan Elasticsearch Ze legt uit hoe Elastic geëvolueerd is tot een veelzijdig Search AI Platform met drie hoofdoplossingen:Search: van productzoekmachines tot document indexingObservability: metrics, logs, tracing, profilingSecurity: SIEM, endpoint protection en anomaly detectionElastic draait perfect op Kubernetes met behulp van de Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK) operator. We bespreken best practices zoals het gebruik van CRD's, het vermijden van single points of failure, en waarom drie master nodes het minimum zijn voor een productiecluster.Logging zonder sidecars Een interessant deel van het gesprek gaat over logging: hoe je zonder sidecars volledige observability kunt realiseren via agents zoals Filebeat of Elastic Agent. Evelien legt uit hoe je debug-logging onder controle houdt met ingest pipelines en log-retentiebeleid, en waarom sommige developers nét iets te enthousiast debug inschakelen.De toekomst: OpenTelemetry Volgens Evelien ligt de toekomst van observability in OpenTelemetry, een CNCF-project dat snel aan populariteit wint. Net zoals Kubernetes nu de standaard is voor container orchestration, ziet zij OpenTelemetry als de aanstaande standaard voor vendor-neutrale observability én security-integratie.Eindconclusie Evelien combineert technische diepgang met een heldere uitleg van concepten. Of het nu gaat om logbeheer, schaalbaarheid op Kubernetes, of de rol van Elastic binnen moderne DevOps-praktijken – deze aflevering zit vol praktische inzichten én een flinke dosis energie.Stuur ons een bericht.Dutch Cloud Native Day 2025Koop je tickets met kortingscode: Community30 en ontvang 30% korting! https://acc-ict.com/liveSupport the showLike and subscribe!

Kody Sale (Head of Product) and Anthony Bertolino (Head of Marketing & Ecosystem) are leading Obol's charge to scale the next generation of infrastructure networks. Together, they're building the largest Decentralized Operator Ecosystem in Ethereum and Web3—powered by Obol's groundbreaking distributed validator technology. Why you should listen Obol Network is building a decentralized staking infrastructure for proof‑of‑stake networks like Ethereum. Obol enables Distributed Validators (DVs): validator clusters made up of multiple operators who jointly run a validator, each holding partial key shares (via Distributed Key Generation). This setup boosts fault tolerance—if one or two nodes go offline or are compromised, the validator stays operational and the full private key is never concentrated in one place, significantly slashing security risk. Obol also integrates a rewards distribution mechanism, Obol Splits, that lets cluster participants define on‑chain how staking rewards are split—non‑custodial, transparent, and immutable. The Obol Stack is a plug‑and‑play framework that sits on Kubernetes and Helm, enabling users to deploy and maintain decentralized infrastructure—like Ethereum validators, full nodes, L2 sequencers, DePIN nodes, AI agents, and more—in an enterprise‑grade but user‑friendly fashion. Whether you're a solo home operator or part of a global datacenter cluster, the Stack lets you package, version, and deploy your setup via Helm charts—then share or discover them through the Obol App Store. This means no wrestling with Bash, Docker Compose, or fragile scripts—everything's containerised, composable, and ready to scale.

In this episode, Jon and Lewis cover four wildly different stories, from Warfare to the impact of Trump conspiracies on Datacentres.First up, Microsoft is investing $400 million to turn Switzerland into the next cloud capital. Is it for neutrality, Trump instability syndrome or just demand? Then, we meet a glow-in-the-dark protein made by an AI called ESM3, because why not let machines start designing life?Next, we detour into wartime sci-fi: Ukraine's drone swarm attack: trucks, remote lids, and enough AI autopilot to cause substantial damage. Finally, we finish with Fi, a smart dog collar that integrates with your Apple Watch. Track your dog's steps, sleep, and GPS location. Why? Who knows!All that, plus plenty of opinions, speculation, and the usual unpacking of what is going on in the Cloud, Tech and AI space.
Neste episódio do Kubicast, recebemos Giulia Bordignon, mais conhecida como SpaceCoding, para uma conversa inspiradora e cheia de provocações sobre a jornada de mulheres na tecnologia. Giulia é desenvolvedora backend, criadora de conteúdo, mestre em Engenharia de Computação e uma das vozes mais ativas sobre representação feminina em TI. O papo vai muito além do clichê e mergulha em temas estruturais como formação acadêmica, barreiras de entrada e as sutilezas do preconceito.Da graduação no interior ao mestrado em IAGiulia compartilha sua trajetória desde os primeiros contatos com a tecnologia, ainda no interior, até a decisão de seguir uma carreira acadêmica. A escolha pela graduação foi movida por uma busca por estabilidade financeira e por influências culturais sobre profissões "respeitadas". Ao longo da conversa, ela revela como disciplinas como contabilidade e administração pareceram limitadas até ela encontrar na tecnologia uma forma de unir criatividade, desafio intelectual e impacto real.Barreiras, bloqueios e viradas de chaveO episódio também expõe o quão traumático pode ser o primeiro contato com conteúdos técnicos para pessoas sem referências. Giulia relata como seu primeiro curso técnico em informática, focado em redes, a afastou da área por um tempo. Mais tarde, a vivência na graduação e o contato com IA mudaram completamente sua percepção sobre tecnologia.Mestrado: formação ou ego?Um dos momentos mais provocativos é quando Giulia, com bom humor, diz que vai fazer o doutorado apenas para ser chamada de "doutora". A frase ironiza a diferença entre motivações pessoais e valor de mercado, mostrando como muitas vezes os títulos acadêmicos não são reconhecidos na mesma medida fora do ambiente universitário.Tecnologia, corpo e bem-estarOutro ponto alto do episódio é a discussão sobre vida ativa e ergonomia. Giulia comenta como a prática de esportes sempre esteve presente na sua vida, inclusive durante a pandemia, quando encontrou na musculação uma nova forma de manter o corpo ativo. Essa relação com a saúde física se estende também ao cuidado com o ambiente de trabalho remoto, como o uso de mesas ajustáveis, cadeiras adequadas e pausas para alongamento.Conteúdo como ferramenta de representaçãoPor fim, o podcast entra em temas como a exposição nas redes, o impacto de haters e a responsabilidade (e o peso) de ser uma voz ativa por mais diversidade em tech. Giulia fala com franqueza sobre os ataques que já sofreu e sobre como isso só reforça a necessidade de continuar ocupando espaços.Para quem busca reflexões reais sobre tecnologia, formação e diversidade, este episódio é uma aula.O Kubicast é uma produção da Getup, empresa especialista em Kubernetes e projetos open source para Kubernetes.

Sudheer Amgothu is a seasoned DevOps engineer with over a decade of experience, renowned for his expertise in cloud technologies, infrastructure automation, and DevOps practices. His career spans various industries, where he has implemented DevOps strategies to accelerate software development cycles, improve system reliability, and enhance operational efficiency."I started my career as a traditional systems engineer," Sudheer says, reflecting on his journey. "I was always drawn to automation, seeing the inefficiencies in manual processes, especially around deployments and monitoring. That's what pulled me into the world of DevOps." His early work in infrastructure automation on AWS laid the foundation for his expertise in the field. "At Elevation, I led efforts to automate the entire infrastructure stack using Terraform and Ansible, which empowered development teams to work faster with less friction."In addition to his technical prowess, Sudheer is an advocate for the cultural transformation DevOps fosters within organizations. "DevOps is more than just automation or tools. It's a culture that brings development and operations teams together with a shared goal of delivering software faster, more reliably, and with higher quality," he explains. "It emphasizes collaboration, continuous feedback, and a mindset of continuous improvement."Sudheer's new book, Mastering DevOps with Kubernetes and Cloud: A Practical Guide, draws from his vast experience and is designed as a hands-on resource for mastering DevOps. "I wanted to create a practical guide, not a theory-heavy textbook," he says. "It's loaded with real-world war stories, step-by-step walkthroughs, and diagrams that show how tools like Terraform, Jenkins, and Kubernetes work together in modern DevOps pipelines."His book, which covers everything from the basics to advanced techniques, was inspired by his conversations with junior engineers and site reliability engineers (SREs). "They understood what DevOps is but struggled with the 'why' and 'how,'" he recalls. "I realized the need for a guide that answers those questions and provides actionable insights."Sudheer's expertise extends beyond DevOps to cloud platforms and Kubernetes, where he has successfully scaled microservices platforms and implemented observability practices. "At Pega, we centralized Prometheus and Grafana dashboards to ensure real-time visibility into production issues," he says. "This proactive approach helped us detect anomalies before they became incidents, improving both system reliability and customer satisfaction."For aspiring DevOps professionals, Sudheer advises, "Don't rush. Start with the basics. Pick a tool like Jenkins, learn how a CI/CD pipeline works, and build from there. The most important thing is hands-on practice and experimentation." His dedication to mentoring the next generation of engineers is evident in his personal approach to career growth, encouraging others to document their learning and contribute to open-source projects.Sudheer's passion for DevOps, cloud technologies, and continuous improvement makes him a respected figure in the field, and his book stands as an essential resource for anyone looking to excel in modern IT environments.You read read the full interview transcript here: https://shoutradio.org.uk/RNH/SudheerAmgothuInterview.pdfAnd find his book here: https://a.co/d/ecU0gzEHighlights from Toby Gribben's Friday afternoon show on Shout Radio.

Cloud cost is no longer just a finance team issue. It is now a business-wide concern, and treating it as a budgeting exercise is holding companies back. In this episode, I'm joined by John Purcell, Chief Product Officer at DoiT, to unpack how organisations can rethink cloud financial management through a risk-first lens. With the FinOps X conference just around the corner, John also gives us a preview of the themes likely to dominate the agenda this year, from Kubernetes complexity to the role of AI in governance. DoiT is not just another optimisation tool. Their Cloud Intelligence platform helps companies align performance, reliability, and security with financial strategy. John explains how cost spikes are not just common, they are almost guaranteed. He shares a real example of a ninety-thousand dollar AWS bill caused by a minor configuration error and what could have prevented it. We talk about the shift from reactive cost reviews to proactive financial defence. Think of it like cybersecurity but applied to your cloud budget. That mindset change is something FinOps teams need to embrace quickly. It is not just about watching what is spent, but understanding intent and outcomes across the business. John also introduces the concept of the FinOps fabric, a combination of technology, processes, and culture that helps teams align on goals and mitigate risks. And while AI and automation are transforming how teams interact with cloud platforms, they are still responsible for driving most cloud spend today. We dig into what needs to change before AI can truly become an optimisation asset rather than another cost driver. Whether you're gearing up for FinOps X or trying to get a better grip on cloud cost management, this episode offers practical insight into the tools, strategies, and cultural shifts that can help your team stay ahead. To learn more, visit doit.com or connect with the team at booth G10 if you are attending the FinOps X event in San Diego.

On this episode of The Defense Unicorns Podcast, host Rebecca Lively sits down with Brandt Keller, software engineer and CNCF ambassador, to explore what happens when a former Marine brings his frontline mindset to DevSecOps. Brandt's story is one of relentless problem-solving, especially in disconnected, air-gapped environments where “cloud-native” has to mean something entirely different.Brandt unpacks how open source can be both a lifeline and a liability in government systems, and why just consuming it isn't enough—real security means showing up, contributing, and understanding what's under the hood. He shares his perspective on trust, transparency, and why the U.S. government's lack of contribution to critical tools like Kubernetes might be the real risk. The conversation also explores the cultural shift required to embrace open ecosystems in highly regulated spaces.From debates over supply chain security and SBOMs to the practical challenges of deploying software in classified settings, this episode offers a grounded, behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to build tools that truly work at the tactical edge. Key Quote:“ When you try to take something that is not airgap friendly and make it airgap friendly, you quickly find out that you made a lot of assumptions about how this thing would be used and where, and kind of the underlying infrastructure and when you try to work back for them that it's, it, it's difficult. It's not something you can't overcome. It's not insurmountable, but it is difficult. But you also find out that there's just a lot of areas for. Resiliency that you didn't also plan for, that applied to connected environments. And so this is where I've kind of been diving into this more and more lately to try and to describe, and build some knowledge to around why this is important for kind of building any application today. It may be a little niche to go to the extreme of air gap, but I believe like there's still some of these underlying cloud native fundamentals that is like, if you start with the ability for knowing how your architecture adapts to varying levels of connectivity, then you're probably building a stronger, more resilient system overall.”Brandt KellerTime Stamps:(03:19) The Defense Sector and Career Path(06:15) Becoming a Cloud Native Computing Foundation Ambassador(09:48) Open Source Contributions and the Challenges(14:14) Government and the lack of Open Source(32:53) Kubernetes and Foreign Contributions(37:24) The Importance of Air Gap in Cloud Native Tools(53:16) Lightning Round Links:Connect with Brandt KellerConnect with Rebecca LivelyLearn More About Defense Unicorns

In this 30‑minute episode, Jon and Lewis unpick the coordinated ransomware wave that struck Britain's high‑street giants. They trace the attack chain that emptied Co‑op shelves, froze M&S online orders and attempted, but failed, to extort Harrods.Lewis takes a look at Amazon's latest generative‑AI arsenal: Amazon Q's new developer‑first agents, the multimodal Nova Premier family running on Bedrock, and AWS's landmark decision to let any SaaS vendor list in Marketplace regardless of where the software runs, a direct play to become the app store for the whole cloud economy. Finally, they ask whether enterprises can really keep their data out of Google's AI engines.Hosts:https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanshanks/https://www.linkedin.com/in/lewismarshall/
Send us a textThe relentless race for cloud dominance continues as AWS reports 16.9% growth year-over-year—a number that would thrill most companies but falls short of expectations for the cloud giant. Tim and Chris dig into what's behind these numbers and why Microsoft and Google continue gaining ground with stronger-than-anticipated growth rates. Microsoft's massive 53% increase in capital spending signals their aggressive push into AI infrastructure, raising questions about whether AWS can maintain its leadership position.Cybersecurity threats are evolving in concerning ways according to Threat Labs' 2025 Phishing Report. While overall phishing attempts have declined, attacks have become more targeted and sophisticated. The hosts explore disturbing trends including the rise of cryptocurrency scams with fake wallets and an increase in job-related phishing that exploits today's challenging employment market. Most alarming is how threat actors are capitalizing on AI hype, creating fraudulent agent websites that mimic legitimate platforms to steal credentials. This exposes a critical vulnerability in emerging technologies like Multi-agent Collaboration Protocol systems that currently lack robust security frameworks.The conversation shifts to more positive developments with Kubernetes 1.33 "Octarine" release, which brings sidecar containers to stable status—a significant improvement for managing service mesh implementations. The hosts break down how this and other updates like in-place resource resizing make Kubernetes more flexible and easier to manage for enterprise deployments.The episode closes with a somber discussion of Intel's announcement of potential layoffs affecting up to 20% of its workforce following substantial quarterly losses. Tim and Chris challenge the new CEO's assertion that requiring more office days will make the company "lean, fast and agile," questioning whether return-to-office mandates have more to do with real estate investments than actual productivity improvements.What tech news matters most to you?

Anurag Goel grew up in New Delhi, but moved to Boston after college for his first job. He worked at Stripe, as the 8th employee, before eventually moving on and launching his current venture. Outside of tech, he is married, living in San Francisco. He likes to read science fiction, especially prior to bedtime. He also enjoys eating Thai food on the regular, though he mentioned he could eat pizza every day.Post leaving Stripe, Anurag decided to work on an ambitious problem, and he started doing this by building a bunch of stuff in many different domains. After noticing a common problem in building out Kubernetes, he decided to start a new business to abstract these problems, and allow builders to focus on the differentiating factors to their solutions.This is the creation story of Render.SponsorsMailtrapSpeakeasyQA WolfSnapTradeLinkshttps://render.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/anuragoel/Our Sponsors:* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Kubernetes revolutionized the way software is built, deployed, and managed, offering engineers unprecedented agility and portability. But as Edera co-founder and CEO Emily Long shares, the speed and flexibility of containerization came with overlooked tradeoffs—especially in security. What started as a developer-driven movement to accelerate software delivery has now left security and infrastructure teams scrambling to contain risks that were never part of Kubernetes' original design.Emily outlines a critical flaw: Kubernetes wasn't built for multi-tenancy. As a result, shared kernels across workloads—whether across customers or internal environments—introduce lateral movement risks. In her words, “A container isn't real—it's just a set of processes.” And when containers share a kernel, a single exploit can become a system-wide threat.Edera addresses this gap by rethinking how containers are run—not rebuilt. Drawing from hypervisor tech like Xen and modernizing it with memory-safe Rust, Edera creates isolated “zones” for containers that enforce true separation without the overhead and complexity of traditional virtual machines. This isolation doesn't disrupt developer workflows, integrates easily at the infrastructure layer, and doesn't require retraining or restructuring CI/CD pipelines. It's secure by design, without compromising performance or portability.The impact is significant. Infrastructure teams gain the ability to enforce security policies without sacrificing cost efficiency. Developers keep their flow. And security professionals get something rare in today's ecosystem: true prevention. Instead of chasing billions of alerts and layering multiple observability tools in hopes of finding the needle in the haystack, teams using Edera can reduce the noise and gain context that actually matters.Emily also touches on the future—including the role of AI and “vibe coding,” and why true infrastructure-level security is essential as code generation becomes more automated and complex. With GPU security on their radar and a hardware-agnostic architecture, Edera is preparing not just for today's container sprawl, but tomorrow's AI-powered compute environments.This is more than a product pitch—it's a reframing of how we define and implement security at the container level. The full conversation reveals what's possible when performance, portability, and protection are no longer at odds.Learn more about Edera: https://itspm.ag/edera-434868Note: This story contains promotional content.
