Did you know that the average salary for a Platform Engineer is 42.5% more than a DevOps engineer? But why is that?We sat down with Artem Lajko, CNCF Kubestronaut and Ambassador as well as Author of the book Implementing GitOps with Kubernetes. We dive into the role of a platform engineer, the common pitfalls in implementing IDPs and why Backstage and AI won't solve all your problems. And we touch upon a topic hot off the press around Terraform: Its not dead!Links we discussedArtem's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lajko/Talk slides from Cloud Land: https://lajko10-my.sharepoint.com/personal/artem_lajko_dev/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?id=%2Fpersonal%2Fartem%5Flajko%5Fdev%2FDocuments%2FAttachments%2Fcloud%20land%2D2025%5F%2Epdf&parent=%2Fpersonal%2Fartem%5Flajko%5Fdev%2FDocuments%2FAttachments&ga=1State of Platform Engineering Report: https://platformengineering.org/reports/state-of-platform-engineering-vol-3Upjet GitHub Project: https://github.com/crossplane/upjet
Retornamos com a segunda parte do nosso bate-papo com o engenheiro de sistemas Felipe Rocha, e agora com o foco total no Kubernetes e seus componentes fundamentais. De forma descontraída, mas técnica, exploramos desde o isolamento de workloads em namespaces até o roteamento seguro de conexões com CNI e políticas de rede.Aprofundamos em tópicos-chave como a adoção de arquiteturas multi tenant e a dinâmica de configuração de segredos dinâmicos com Secret Engines, ilustrando como integrar Helm Charts, ArgoCD e Terraform para criar pipelines GitOps realmente escaláveis. Além disso, discutimos o trade-off entre visibilidade operacional e automação gerenciada em clusters EKS.Encerramos refletindo sobre como manter uma plataforma ágil em grandes corporações, equilibrando governança e rapidez de entrega, e por que a segurança no Kubernetes é mais um processo de retardamento do que de bloqueio absoluto.Links Importantes:- Felipe Rocha - https://www.linkedin.com/in/felipefonsecarocha- João Brito - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juniorjbn- Assista ao FilmeTEArapia - https://youtu.be/M4QFmW_HZh0?si=HIXBDWZJ8yPbpflMHashtags#kubernetes #serviceaccount #networkpolicies #cni #gitops #helm #terraform #devops #devsecops #kubicast #containers #getupO Kubicast é uma produção da Getup, empresa especialista em Kubernetes e projetos open source para Kubernetes.

“You can now connect everything—cloud workloads, offices, data centers, users—on one software-defined network, without the hardware.” — Elizabeth Aris, CEO, Astrotel In this Technology Reseller News podcast, Publisher Doug Green interviews David Klebanov, a leading architect at Alkira, and Elizabeth Aris, CEO of Astrotel, to explore how their partnership is delivering Network Infrastructure as a Service (NIaaS) to global enterprises—without the capital investment or complexity of traditional networking. Born in the Cloud, Built for the AI Era Alkira, founded in 2018, was born with a vision to deliver networking the same way cloud services are consumed: on demand, scalable, and usage-based. The Alkira platform runs entirely in the cloud—across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud—allowing enterprises to deploy secure, high-performance global networks in hours, not months. “Our platform is the networking and security foundation for today's distributed, cloud-first enterprise,” said Klebanov. “And it's built to support AI workloads and multi-cloud architectures from day one.” Channel-Driven and Globally Deployed Astrotel, based in Sydney, is a service provider and Alkira partner helping customers across the Asia-Pacific region deploy network services in minutes using Alkira's cloud-native platform. Aris emphasized the advantage: no hardware, no CapEx, and up to 60% cost savings. “We're setting up entire global networks using Alkira's software-based cloud exchange points. It's a massive differentiator,” said Aris. “From remote Australia to Hong Kong to London, you just connect your sites to the nearest cloud region—there's no need to negotiate with local telcos or install new gear.” Enterprise-Grade Security and Simplicity The Alkira platform integrates firewall, DNS, DHCP, and other critical services directly into its virtualized architecture. IT teams can manage and secure the network through Alkira's centralized portal—or via REST APIs and Terraform for programmatic deployments. A single control plane manages the entire hybrid network—connecting public cloud workloads, private data centers, branch offices, remote users, and partner networks. This includes secure extranet support for M&A environments, allowing partial segmentation during network convergence. A Win for Carriers, Too Interestingly, carriers are also using Alkira to extend their reach. Aris explained that tier-one telcos are deploying Alkira to serve customers in markets where they lack infrastructure. “Instead of buying wholesale access from foreign providers, they spin up Alkira and deliver services in hours. It's flexible, fast, and operationally simple.” Where to Learn More Visit alkira.com to explore Alkira's cloud-first networking platform. Visit astrotel.io to learn how Astrotel deploys Alkira services across Asia-Pacific. Partner Opportunities: Alkira's 100% channel-focused model is open to partners in the U.S., Canada, and globally who are ready to offer NIaaS and cloud-native connectivity solutions.

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.

Episode SummaryDive into the ever-evolving world of platform engineering with Cory O'Daniel, CEO and co-founder of Massdriver. This episode explores the journey of DevOps, the challenges of building and scaling infrastructure, and the crucial role of creating effective abstractions to empower developers. Cory shares his insights on the shift towards platform engineering as a means to build more secure and efficient software by default.Show NotesIn this episode of The Secure Developer, host Danny Allan sits down with Cory O'Daniel, CEO and co-founder of Massdriver, to discuss the dynamic landscape of platform engineering. Cory, a seasoned software engineer and first-time CEO, shares his extensive experience in the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) space, tracing his journey from early encounters with EC2 to founding Massdriver. He offers candid advice for developers aspiring to become CEOs, emphasizing the importance of passion and early customer engagement. The conversation delves into the evolution of DevOps over the past two decades, highlighting the constant changes in how software is run, from mainframes to serverless containers and now AI. Cory argues that the true spirit of DevOps lies in operations teams producing products that developers can easily use. He points out the challenge of scaling operations expertise, suggesting that IT and Cloud practices need to mature in software development to create better abstractions for developers, rather than expecting developers to become infrastructure experts. A significant portion of the discussion focuses on the current state of abstractions in IaC. Cory contends that existing public abstractions, like open-source Terraform modules, are often too generic and don't account for specific business logic, security, or compliance requirements. He advocates for operations teams building their own prescriptive modules that embed organizational standards, effectively shifting security left by design rather than by burdening developers. The episode also touches upon the potential and limitations of AI in the operations space, with Cory expressing skepticism about AI's current ability to handle the contextual complexities of infrastructure without significant, organization-specific training data. Finally, Cory shares his optimism for the future of platform engineering, viewing it as a return to the original intentions of DevOps, where operations teams ship software with ingrained security and compliance, leading to more secure systems by default.LinksMassDriverAnsibleChefTerraformDevOps is BullshitElephant in the CloudDockerPostgresOpenTofuHelmRedisElixirSnyk - The Developer Security Company Follow UsOur WebsiteOur LinkedIn

Jon Kol is a Co-founder at Hyperlane, the open interoperability framework to connect anywhere onchain. Why you should listen Hyperlane is the “open interoperability framework” that lets any blockchain—whether an L1, rollup, app‑chain, or VM—talk to any other, permissionlessly. Think of it as the universal plumbing for cross‑chain apps, assets, and arbitrary messages, already live on 140+ chains and five VMs. At its core, Hyperlane uses Mailbox contracts on each chain as send/receive endpoints. When you dispatch a message, it's slotted into a Merkle tree; off‑chain relayers pick it up, bundle the proof, and submit it to the destination's Mailbox, where it's verified and delivered to your target contract Security is modular thanks to Interchain Security Modules (ISMs). You can choose default multisig sets, compose prebuilt ISMs, or even craft custom ones to suit your risk appetite. That means you decide how many validator signatures you need or even plug in your own validator network—no one‑size‑fits‑all guardrails here Beyond pure messaging, Hyperlane offers Warp Routes—its native, no‑slippage token bridges. Lock your token on Chain A, mint a wrapped version on Chain B, and reverse when you bridge back. All managed by the same mailbox/ISM infrastructure for consistency and security Developers get robust tooling: TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go SDKs, CLI commands, Terraform modules—and an Explorer to track message status. Want interchain accounts? Execute contracts on remote chains from a single signer. Need cross‑VM swaps? Hyperlane's got EVM↔SVM covered. HYPER (the native token) powers staking, validator incentives, governance, and expansion rewards. With a 1 B supply over 25 years and liquid staking via stHYPER, it aligns long‑term builders with protocol security and growth. If you're building the next multi‑chain DeFi, game, or governance tool, quitting the single‑chain mindset starts here.

Show Notes "So I've been focused on the code to cloud journey, I like to call it, for the template. And two years ago, my goal was to provide a solution that could take you from code to cloud in 45 minutes or less. So I wanted it to be "file new project" to deploy a solution on Azure—because that's where my main focus is—within 45 minutes."— Jason Taylor Welcome friends to The Modern .NET Show; the premier .NET podcast, focusing entirely on the knowledge, tools, and frameworks that all .NET developers should have in their toolbox. We are the go-to podcast for .NET developers worldwide, and I am your host: Jamie "GaProgMan" Taylor. In this episode, Jason Taylor (no relation) joined us to talk about his journey from Classic ASP to .NET and Azure. He also discusses clean architecture's maintainability, and his open-source Clean Architecture Solution template for ASP .NET Core, along with strategies for learning new frameworks and dealing with complexity. "Right now the template supports PostgreSQL, SQLite, and SQL Server. If you want to support MySQL, it's relatively easy to do because there's already a Bicep module or a Terraform module that you can go in and use it. So I went from 45 minutes to now I can get things up and running in like, I don't know, two minutes of effort and 15 minutes of waiting around while I make my coffee"— Jason Taylor Along the way, we talk about some of the complexities involved with creating a template which supports multiple different frontend technologies and .NET Aspire (which was news to me when we recorded), all the while maintaining the goal of being the simplest approach for enterprise development with Clean Architecture. Anyway, without further ado, let's sit back, open up a terminal, type in `dotnet new podcast` and we'll dive into the core of Modern .NET.

Send us a textWhat exactly is cloud networking? This seemingly simple question quickly descends into a fascinating philosophical debate as we welcome back Nico Vibert, Senior Staff Technical Marketing Engineer at Isovalent/Cisco, to tackle this identity crisis head-on.The conversation begins with a startling observation from Nico about analyst reports that group wildly different vendors together under the "cloud networking" umbrella. From there, we explore how defining cloud networking has become increasingly complex as technologies evolve and converge. We trace the origins back to AWS's introduction of VPC in 2009 and discuss how different cloud providers approach networking based on their unique company cultures.One clear consensus emerges: true cloud networking must be API-driven. Whether consumed directly via APIs or through infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform, programmability stands as a non-negotiable requirement. But beyond this foundation, the boundaries blur significantly when examining various technologies that might qualify.Does Kubernetes networking fall under the cloud networking umbrella? What about Middle Mile providers like Equinix or Megaport that physically connect clouds? Are CDNs part of cloud networking, or something entirely different? We dissect these questions without settling on definitive answers, highlighting how technology's rapid evolution makes categorization increasingly difficult.Looking ahead, we explore how AI is reshaping cloud networking in two critical ways: networks optimized for AI workloads and AI-enhanced network management. Cloud providers are investing billions in infrastructure upgrades, developing custom silicon to reduce dependency on GPU manufacturers, signaling massive transformation on the horizon.Whether you're a network engineer, cloud architect, or technology leader trying to understand this evolving landscape, this episode provides valuable perspective on cloud networking's past, present, and future directions.Connect with Nico: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolasvibert/Purchase Chris and Tim's new book on AWS Cloud Networking: https://www.amazon.com/Certified-Advanced-Networking-Certification-certification/dp/1835080839/ Check out the Fortnightly Cloud Networking Newshttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1fkBWCGwXDUX9OfZ9_MvSVup8tJJzJeqrauaE6VPT2b0/Visit our website and subscribe: https://www.cables2clouds.com/Follow us on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cables2clouds.comFollow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@cables2clouds/Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cables2cloudsMerch Store: https://store.cables2clouds.com/Join the Discord Study group: https://artofneteng.com/iaatj

General News 01:02 HashiCorp and Red Hat, better together Hashicorp has more details on its future, with the recent IBM acquisition in this blog post. They talk about the wide range of Day 2 operations, including things like drift detection, image management and patching, rightsizing, and configuration management. As Red Hat Ansible is a purpose built operational management platform, it makes it easier to properly configure resources after the initial creation, but also to evolve the configuration after setup, and then execute ad-hoc playbooks to keep things running reliably and more securely at scale. Some additional things they're exploring, now that the acquisition has closed: Red Hat Ansible Inventory generated dynamically by Terraform. Official Terraform modules for Redhat Ansible, making it easier to trigger terraform from Ansible Playbooks. Redhat and Hashicorp officially support the Red Hat Ansible Provider for Terraform, making it easier to trigger Ansible from Terraform. Evolving Terraform provisioners to support a more comprehensive set of lifecycle integrations. Improved mechanisms to invoke Ansible Playbooks outside of the resource provisioning lifecycle Customers – not surprisingly – regularly integrate Vault and Openshift, and they have identified dozens of connection points that can add value, including: Vault Secrets Operator for OpenShift Etcd data encryption Argo CI/CD Istio Certificate issuance 01:48 Justin – “That's a lot of promise for Ansible there, that I'm not sure it completely lives up to…” 07:09
