Bringing GPUs into Airflow + Kubernetes ML Pipelines: practical patterns for efficient training and inference
Machine learning pipelines increasingly need more than CPU cycles — they need GPUs. If you’re running Airflow on Kubernetes, that’s good news: Kubernetes gives you the hardware and scheduling primitives,...
Agentic copilots in DevOps: from chatty helpers to autonomous teammates
The last few years turned code-completing copilots into something more ambitious: autonomous, agentic copilots that can pick up an issue, spin up a workspace, run tests, and open a pull...
Cloud cost optimization for beginners: Stop wasting money on idle resources
Cloud bills are painless until they’re not. The good news: most cloud “waste” comes from predictable, fixable issues — idle VMs, forgotten storage, over-provisioned containers, and always-on dev environments. This...
Integrating multi-layer security scanning into your GitHub workflow
Software security is like tuning a band: one instrument out of tune (a vulnerable dependency, leaked secret, or weak CI policy) can ruin the whole performance. Over the last year...
Serverless 101: Deploying your first AWS Lambda with a Function URL
If you want to get a tiny web endpoint running without wiring API Gateway, load balancers, or extra infra, AWS Lambda Function URLs are a simple, modern way to expose...
Prometheus Anomaly Detection Framework
Latency monitoring has always been one of the most deceptive areas in observability. On the surface, measuring latency feels straightforward: track your p50, p95, and p99, and alert when they...
Golden paths with Backstage: scaffold GitOps-ready apps using Terraform and Argo CD
Golden paths are opinionated, well-documented workflows that let developers move fast while staying within safe, maintainable boundaries. Backstage is an excellent place to host those paths: its Scaffolder (software templates)...
Ephemeral secrets and state encryption: a practical intro to OpenTofu’s safer secret handling
OpenTofu has quickly evolved beyond being a drop-in Terraform fork — it’s adding features that rethink how secret and transient data are handled in infrastructure-as-code. Two recent additions are especially...
