DevOps practitioners — whether developers, operators, SREs or business stakeholders — increasingly rely on telemetry to guide decisions, yet face growing complexity, siloed teams and rising observability costs. In a conversation at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America, IBM's Jacob Yackenovich emphasized the importance of collecting high-granularity, full-capture data to avoid missing critical performance signals across hybrid application stacks that blend legacy and cloud-native components. He argued that observability must evolve to serve both technical and nontechnical users, enabling teams to focus on issues based on real business impact rather than subjective judgment.AI's rapid integration into applications introduces new observability challenges. Yackenovich described two patterns: add-on AI services, such as chatbots, whose failures don't disrupt core workflows, and blocking-style AI components embedded in essential processes like fraud detection, where errors directly affect application function.Rising cloud and ingestion costs further complicate telemetry strategies. Yackenovich cautioned against limiting visibility for budget reasons, advocating instead for predictable, fixed-price observability models that let organizations innovate without financial uncertainty.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in observability: Introduction to ObservabilityObservability 2.0?

Major banks once built their own Linux kernels because no distributions existed, but today commercial distros — and Kubernetes — are universal. At KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America, AWS's Jesse Butler noted that Kubernetes has reached the same maturity Linux once did: organizations no longer build bespoke control planes but rely on shared standards. That shift influences how AWS contributes to open source, emphasizing community-wide solutions rather than AWS-specific products.Butler highlighted two AWS EKS projects donated to Kubernetes SIGs: KRO and Karpenter. KRO addresses the proliferation of custom controllers that emerged once CRDs made everything representable as Kubernetes resources. By generating CRDs and microcontrollers from simple YAML schemas, KRO transforms “glue code” into an automated service within Kubernetes itself. Karpenter tackles the limits of traditional autoscaling by delivering just-in-time, cost-optimized node provisioning with a flexible, intuitive API. Both projects embody AWS's evolving philosophy: building features that serve the entire Kubernetes ecosystem as it matures into a true enterprise standard.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in Kube Resource Orchestrator and Karpenter:  Migrating From Cluster Autoscaler to Karpenter v0.32How Amazon EKS Auto Mode Simplifies Kubernetes Cluster Management (Part 1) Kubernetes Gets a New Resource Orchestrator in the Form of KroJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Clockwork began with a narrow goal—keeping clocks synchronized across servers—but soon realized that its precise latency measurements could reveal deeper data center networking issues. This insight led the company to build a hardware-agnostic monitoring and remediation platform capable of automatically routing around faults. Today, Clockwork's technology is especially valuable for large GPU clusters used in training LLMs, where communication efficiency and reliability are critical. CEO Suresh Vasudevan explains that AI workloads are among the most demanding distributed applications ever, and Clockwork provides building blocks that improve visibility, performance and fault tolerance. Its flagship feature, FleetIQ, can reroute traffic around failing switches, preventing costly interruptions that might otherwise force teams to restart training from hours-old checkpoints. Although the company originated from Stanford research focused on clock synchronization for financial institutions, the team eventually recognized that packet-timing data could underpin powerful network telemetry and dynamic traffic control. By integrating with NVIDIA NCCL, TCP and RDMA libraries, Clockwork can not only measure congestion but also actively manage GPU communication to enhance both uptime and training efficiency. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in Clockwork: Clockwork's FleetIQ Aims To Fix AI's Costly Network Bottleneck What Happens When 116 Makers Reimagine the Clock? Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jupyter Deploy: the New Middle Ground between Laptops and Enterprise

At JupyterCon 2025, Jupyter Deploy was introduced as an open source command-line tool designed to make cloud-based Jupyter deployments quick and accessible for small teams, educators, and researchers who lack cloud engineering expertise. As described by AWS engineer Jonathan Guinegagne, these users often struggle in an “in-between” space—needing more computing power and collaboration features than a laptop offers, but without the resources for complex cloud setups. Jupyter Deploy simplifies this by orchestrating an entire encrypted stack—using Docker, Terraform, OAuth2, and Let's Encrypt—with minimal setup, removing the need to manually manage 15–20 cloud components. While it offers an easy on-ramp, Guinegagne notes that long-term use still requires some cloud understanding. Built by AWS's AI Open Source team but deliberately vendor-neutral, it uses a template-based approach, enabling community-contributed deployment recipes for any cloud. Led by Brian Granger, the project aims to join the official Jupyter ecosystem, with future plans including Kubernetes integration for enterprise scalability. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in Jupyter AI development: Introduction to Jupyter Notebooks for DevelopersDisplay AI-Generated Images in a Jupyter Notebook Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In an interview at JupyterCon, Brian Granger — co-creator of Project Jupyter and senior principal technologist at AWS — reflected on Jupyter's evolution and how AI is redefining open source sustainability. Originally inspired by physics' modular principles, Granger and co-founder Fernando Pérez designed Jupyter with flexible, extensible components like the notebook format and kernel message protocol. This architecture has endured as the ecosystem expanded from data science into AI and machine learning. Now, AI is accelerating development itself: Granger described rewriting Jupyter Server in Go, complete with tests, in just 30 minutes using an AI coding agent — a task once considered impossible. This shift challenges traditional notions of technical debt and could reshape how large open source projects evolve. Jupyter's 2017 ACM Software System Award placed it among computing's greats, but also underscored its global responsibility. Granger emphasized that sustaining Jupyter's mission — empowering human reasoning, collaboration, and innovation — remains the team's top priority in the AI era. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in Jupyter AI development: Introduction to Jupyter Notebooks for Developers Display AI-Generated Images in a Jupyter Notebook  Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.    Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jupyter AI v3 marks a major step forward in integrating intelligent coding assistance directly into JupyterLab. Discussed by AWS engineers David Qiu and Piyush Jain at JupyterCon, the new release introduces AI personas— customizable, specialized assistants that users can configure to perform tasks such as coding help, debugging, or analysis. Unlike other AI tools, Jupyter AI allows multiple named agents, such as “Claude Code” or “OpenAI Codex,” to coexist in one chat. Developers can even build and share their own personas as local or pip-installable packages. This flexibility was enabled by splitting Jupyter AI's previously large, complex codebase into smaller, modular packages, allowing users to install or replace components as needed. Looking ahead, Qiu envisions Jupyter AI as an “ecosystem of AI personas,” enabling multi-agent collaboration where different personas handle roles like data science, engineering, and testing. With contributors from AWS, Apple, Quansight, and others, the project is poised to expand into a diverse, community-driven AI ecosystem.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in Jupyter AI development: Introduction to Jupyter Notebooks for DevelopersDisplay AI-Generated Images in a Jupyter NotebookJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Agentic coding isn't software engineering. If you've been coding for a while, it doesn't give you the same rewards. Yet some developers are all too eager to let their skills atrophy and outsource the fun parts of being a developer to an AI, instead of fixing the root issue - their skill issue. This is mainly targeted towards junior developers, but a lot of this applies to more experienced developers as well.

Many leaders are trapped between chasing ambitious, ill-defined AI projects and the paralysis of not knowing where to start. Dr. Randall Olson argues that the real opportunity isn't in moonshots, but in the "trillions of dollars of business value" available right now. As co-founder of Wyrd Studios, he bridges the gap between data science, AI engineering, and executive strategy to deliver a practical framework for execution. In this episode, Randy and Hugo lay out how to find and solve what might be considered "boring but valuable" problems, like an EdTech company automating 20% of its support tickets with a simple retrieval bot instead of a complex AI tutor. They discuss how to move incrementally along the "agentic spectrum" and why treating AI evaluation with the same rigor as software engineering is non-negotiable for building a disciplined, high-impact AI strategy. They talk through: How a non-technical leader can prototype a complex insurance claim classifier using just photos and a ChatGPT subscription. The agentic spectrum: Why you should start by automating meeting summaries before attempting to build fully autonomous agents. The practical first step for any executive: Building a personal knowledge base with meeting transcripts and strategy docs to get tailored AI advice. Why treating AI evaluation with the same rigor as unit testing is essential for shipping reliable products.

Most AI teams find their multi-agent systems devolving into chaos, but ML Engineer Alex Strick van Linschoten argues they are ignoring the production reality. In this episode, he draws on insights from the LLM Ops Database (750+ real-world deployments then; now nearly 1,000!) to systematically measure and engineer constraint, turning unreliable prototypes into robust, enterprise-ready AI. Drawing from his work at Zen ML, Alex details why success requires scaling down and enforcing MLOps discipline to navigate the unpredictable "Agent Reliability Cliff". He provides the essential architectural shifts, evaluation hygiene techniques, and practical steps needed to move beyond guesswork and build scalable, trustworthy AI products. We talk through: - Why "shoving a thousand agents" into an app is the fastest route to unmanageable chaos - The essential MLOps hygiene (tracing and continuous evals) that most teams skip - The optimal (and very low) limit for the number of tools an agent can reliably use - How to use human-in-the-loop strategies to manage the risk of autonomous failure in high-sensitivity domains - The principle of using simple Python/RegEx before resorting to costly LLM judges LINKS The LLMOps Database: 925 entries as of today....submit a use case to help it get to 1K!

Can you navigate AI disruption without understanding your landscape? Discover how to gain true situational awareness.The rise of AI has exposed a fundamental problem in how organizations make decisions. Most leaders operate using stories and graphs, not actual maps of their landscape. This leaves them vulnerable to disruption and unable to make informed choices about where to apply new technologies. The result is chaos, waste, and strategic mistakes that could have been avoided.In this episode, Simon Wardley, creator of Wardley Mapping, explains how to build true situational awareness in your organization. He shares why most business “maps” aren't really maps at all, how to understand the landscape before making decisions, and what leaders need to know about AI adoption beyond the current hype.Key topics discussed:Why leading with stories instead of maps creates fake CEOsThe critical difference between graphs and maps in business strategyWhat Wardley mapping is and the three pattern types leaders must understandHow to identify where human decision-making adds value in your AI adoptionWhy vibe coding is powerful but dangerous without proper code reviewsWhy software development is still a craft, not engineeringHow Jevons Paradox means AI won't eliminate jobs but expand codebasesThe hidden dangers of AI hallucinations and the need for critical thinkingTimestamps:(00:00:00) Trailer & Intro(00:02:59) Career Turning Points(00:06:45) Importance of Understanding Landscape for Leaders(00:10:42) The Problem of Leading with Stories(00:12:49) Wardley Maps vs Other Types of Business Maps/Analysis(00:17:32) Wardley Map Overview(00:23:54) Why Mapping is Not a Common Industry Practice(00:26:23) Climatic Patterns, Doctrines, and Gameplay(00:30:51) Understanding Disruption by Using a Map(00:33:17) Navigating the Recent AI Disruption(00:39:37) A Leader's Guide to Adopting AI(00:42:49) Turning Coding From a Craft Into Engineering(00:48:05) Simon's AI & Vibe Coding Experiments(00:55:28) The Importance of Critical Thinking for Software Engineers(01:03:49) Navigating Career Anxiety Due to AI Fear(01:08:56) Tech Lead Wisdom_____Simon Wardley's BioSimon Wardley is a researcher, former CEO, and the creator of Wardley Mapping, a powerful method for visualizing and developing business strategy. His journey began accidentally after a bookseller recommended Sun Tzu's The Art of War, which sparked a fascination with understanding the competitive “landscape.”As the former CEO of an online photo service acquired by Canon, he felt like a “fake CEO,” leading with stories while lacking true situational awareness. This led him to discover that almost all business “maps” were merely graphs, prompting him to develop his own mapping technique. Today, his work is used by organizations like NASA and taught at multiple MBA programs, helping leaders to “look before they leap” and navigate complex technological and market shifts, including the current disruption caused by AI.Follow Simon:LinkedIn – linkedin.com/in/simonwardleyTwitter – x.com/swardleyWebsite – www.swardleymaps.comLike this episode?Show notes & transcript: techleadjournal.dev/episodes/235.Follow @techleadjournal on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram.Buy me a coffee or become a patron.

Harness co-founder Jyoti Bansal highlights a growing issue in software development: while AI tools help generate more code, they often create bottlenecks further along the pipeline, especially in testing, deployment, and compliance. Since its 2017 launch, Harness has aimed to streamline these stages using AI and machine learning. With the rise of large language models (LLMs), the company shifted toward agentic AI, introducing a library of specialized agents—like DevOps, SRE, AppSec, and FinOps agents—that operate behind a unified interface called Harness AI. These agents assist in building production pipelines, not deploying code directly, ensuring human oversight remains critical for compliance and security.Bansal emphasizes that AI in development isn't replacing people but accelerating workflows to meet tighter timelines. He also notes strong enterprise adoption, with even large, traditionally slower-moving organizations embracing AI integration. On the topic of an AI bubble, Bansal sees it as a natural part of innovation, akin to the Dotcom era, where market excitement can still lead to meaningful long-term transformation despite short-term volatility. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in Harness' AI approach to software development: Harness AI Tackles Software Development's Real Bottleneck  Harnessing AI To Elevate Automated Software Testing Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

As AI tools race into every corner of software development, a simple question keeps coming back to me. Will AI replace human testers, or will it force us to rethink what great testing looks like in the first place. In today's conversation, I talk with Santiago Komadina Geffroy, a Software Engineer at Jalasoft and an educator with Jala University, about what changes, what stays, and what teams should do next. Santiago shares how his day job and teaching intersect. He points to a gap he sees often. Engineers are experimenting with large language models without fully understanding how they work, which leads to overconfidence and avoidable rework. He argues for clearer interaction patterns between tools and people. Think less about magic prompts and more about protocols, context sharing, and agent to agent collaboration. That shift frees testers to do the thinking work that AI still struggles with, from exploratory testing and usability judgment to spotting the weird edge cases that only show up when real humans use real products. We also get into bias and ethics. AI is only as fair as the data it learns from, and that matters in healthcare, finance, and hiring where a mistake can carry life changing consequences. Santiago calls for stronger education around data quality, authorship, privacy, and environmental impact, not as a side note but as part of how engineers are trained. He believes governance helps teams move faster with fewer regrets when they take AI into production. Security sits in the mix too. Many AI tools need deep system access. If compromised, they can distort results or leak sensitive information. Santiago is candid about the limits of any single safeguard. He recommends a culture of shared responsibility where engineers understand when to call in security specialists and how to design workflows that keep humans in the loop for consequential decisions. We close with what Jalasoft has learned from building with AI inside a nearshore model in South America. More thinking time. Smaller, controllable scopes. Clear lines between routine automation and human judgment. The headline is simple. AI will change testing. Human testers will remain at the heart of quality.

John Berryman (Arcturus Labs; early GitHub Copilot engineer; co-author of Relevant Search and Prompt Engineering for LLMs) has spent years figuring out what makes AI applications actually work in production. In this episode, he shares the “seven deadly sins” of LLM development — and the practical fixes that keep projects from stalling. From context management to retrieval debugging, John explains the patterns he's seen succeed, the mistakes to avoid, and why it helps to think of an LLM as an “AI intern” rather than an all-knowing oracle. We talk through: - Why chasing perfect accuracy is a dead end - How to use agents without losing control - Context engineering: fitting the right information in the window - Starting simple instead of over-orchestrating - Separating retrieval from generation in RAG - Splitting complex extractions into smaller checks - Knowing when frameworks help — and when they slow you down A practical guide to avoiding the common traps of LLM development and building systems that actually hold up in production.

This One Skill Signifies Seniority For Software Engineers

This episode explains what is arguably the best career advice you'll hear this week: the one skill that signifies seniority in software engineers is the ability to synthesise and optimise for multiple factors at once. Instead of focusing on a single factor, such as performance or maintainability, senior engineers identify and weigh the various trade-offs involved in any decision.Discover the key skill that distinguishes a senior engineer: It's the ability to synthesise multiple, competing factors—like performance, maintainability, cost, and time to market—rather than focusing on just one.Learn why single-factor thinking can hold you back: Junior engineers often optimise for what they know best or what is easiest to measure, which can harm the overall solution, the team, and their professional reputation.Understand how to demonstrate seniority in interviews and at work: You can show your maturity and wisdom by identifying the crucial trade-offs for any given problem, asking what factors need to be balanced, and exploring options that might satisfy multiple goals at once.Explore how to find better solutions by thinking in trade-offs: The goal isn't just to make sacrifices; often, the mark of a great senior engineer is finding a third option that effectively balances or optimises for multiple important factors simultaneously.Start practising this skill today: Challenge yourself to identify what you are giving up with any decision and consider factors you don't normally prioritise. Ask "What am I saying no to?" to develop this crucial skill.

BONUS: Agile Tour Vienna 2025—Building Community-Driven Agile Excellence In this BONUS episode, we explore the upcoming Agile Tour Vienna 2025 (get your ticket now!) with three passionate organizers who are bringing together the Austrian agile community for a day of learning, networking, and innovation. Join us as we dive into what makes this community-driven event special, the challenges facing today's agile practitioners, and why local connections matter more than ever in our evolving professional landscape. The Heart of Community-Driven Events "For me, it's really about creating an event from the community for the community. So at the Agile Tour Vienna we really pay a lot of attention that the contributions are made by community members." - Sabina Lammert The foundation of Agile Tour Vienna lies in its commitment to authentic community engagement. Unlike corporate-led conferences focused on sales and marketing, this event prioritizes genuine knowledge sharing and peer-to-peer learning. The organizers emphasize creating space for meaningful conversations, where participants don't just consume content but actively contribute to discussions and support one another with real-world challenges. This approach fosters an intimate atmosphere where attendees leave with valuable professional connections and practical insights they can immediately apply. Balancing Local Expertise with Global Perspectives "This local aspect is very important, but then it needs to be enhanced by bringing in ideas from people from the outside world." - Robert Ruzitschka Agile Tour Vienna strikes a unique balance between showcasing local Austrian talent and bringing in internationally renowned speakers. The event features a carefully curated mix of practical experiences from Vienna-based practitioners working directly with teams and companies, combined with keynotes from global thought leaders. This blend creates opportunities for attendees to understand both the local context of agile implementation and broader industry trends, making the learning experience both immediately relevant and strategically valuable. A Thoughtfully Designed Experience "We make sure we have a good diversity within the speakers. We also take care that we have a good mix, because for me, agile started with the engineering practices." - Richard Brenner The 2025 program demonstrates attention to creating a comprehensive learning experience. The organizers ensure language accessibility by maintaining at least one English track throughout the day while also offering German sessions. The content spans from technical engineering practices to team coaching and business strategy, reflecting agile's evolution across organizational levels. The event takes place in a stunning castle location (Auersperg Palace) that enhances the intimate, family-like atmosphere the organizers work hard to cultivate. World-Class Content in an Intimate Setting "Agile Tour Vienna is never aiming to go big, but to stay small and familiar. By the end of the day, you know new people." - Sabina Lammert This year's highlights include keynotes from Dave Farley on engineering excellence and Mirella Muse on product operations, plus an innovative Comic Agile storytelling workshop. The organizers deliberately limit attendance to maintain the conference's intimate character, ensuring meaningful networking opportunities rather than overwhelming crowds. Additional touches like a professional barista bar and ample space for informal conversations between sessions create an environment where genuine professional relationships can develop. From Concept-Based to Context-Based Agility "The biggest challenge is that we go from concept-based agility to context-based agility. Companies realize the world is complex. There is no one framework to rule them all." - Richard Brenner The agile community faces a significant evolution as the methodology matures from underground movement to established practice. Organizations are moving away from rigid framework implementations toward contextual problem-solving approaches. This shift requires practitioners to focus on solving real business issues rather than introducing agile for its own sake. The challenge lies in maintaining agile's core values while adapting to diverse organizational contexts and avoiding the trap of seeking simple solutions for complex problems. Maintaining Values-Based Working "It's not about winning over something. It's about using common sense, getting into interaction and trying to find sometimes complex solutions for complex problems." - Sabina Lammert Rather than declaring agile "dead," the community must refocus on value-based working and continuous adaptation. The real challenge involves empowering people to constantly reevaluate situations and embrace the reality that today's solutions may not work in three weeks or three years. This requires normalizing the inspect-and-adapt mindset as standard practice rather than exception, moving beyond method-focused thinking toward principle-driven decision making. Sustaining Community Spirit Through Challenging Times "In times of crisis, people tend to fall back to old patterns of behavior. We need to keep the ideas that made us work in a specific way alive." - Robert Ruzitschka Economic and political uncertainties create pressure to abandon agile practices in favor of traditional command-and-control approaches. Community events like Agile Tour Vienna play a crucial role in maintaining momentum for collaborative, adaptive working methods. The discipline required for agile practices - continuous integration, experimental approaches, market-driven feedback collection - represents a more sophisticated and ultimately more sustainable way of working than traditional project management approaches. The Discipline of Adaptability The discussion revealed an important distinction about discipline in agile environments. Agile teams demonstrate remarkable discipline through practices like continuous integration, experimental product development, and systematic feedback collection. This represents a more humane form of discipline that acknowledges complexity and enables adaptation, contrasting sharply with the rigid discipline of following predetermined plans regardless of changing circumstances.
