New product, Serverless RL, available through collaboration between CoreWeave, Weights & Biases, and OpenPipe. Offers fast training, lower costs, and simple model deployment. Saves time with no infra setup, faster feedback loops, and easier entry into RL training... read more  

When an EC2 instance in an Auto Scaling Group shuts down, event-driven plumbing kicks in. Alifecycle hookcatches the scale-in, fires off an SNS notification, and triggers aLambda. That Lambda calls the GitHub API to yank the self-hosted runner before the instance dies. No dangling runners. No manual.. read more  

A team movedover 1 billion production records- no downtime, no drama. The stack: dual writes, Kafka retries, and idempotent inserts to keep it clean. They ranshadow readsto sniff for errors, chunked the transfers with checksums, and held off indexing to keep inserts fast. Caches got warmed early to .. read more  

The Ansibleservicemodulehandles LinuxandWindows without choking on init system quirks. One playbook can start, stop, enable, or restart anything - no matter the OS. Idempotent, so you don’t have to babysit state. Clean and repeatable. Bonus: it’s great for wrangling fleets. Think: coordinating servi.. read more  

AWS S3 doesn’t need fancy hardware. It wrings performance out ofcheap HDDs,log-structured merge trees, anderasure coding. The trick? Shard everything. Hit it in parallel. Randomized placementdodges hotspots.Hedged requestsrace the slowest links. And when things get lopsided, S3 rebalances - constant.. read more  

AWS is puttingFirecracker microVMsto work in two fresh stacks:AgentCore, the new base layer for AI agents, andAurora DSQL, a serverless, PostgreSQL-compatible database it just rolled out. AgentCore gives each agent session its own microVM. More isolation, less cross-talk - solid for multistep LLM wo.. read more  

LogSeam rips through500M log searches/secand pushes1.5+ TB/s throughputusing Tigris’ geo-distributed object storage. It slashes log volume by 100× with Parquet + Zstandard compression. Then it spins up compute on the fly, right where the data lives—no long-running infrastructure, no laggy reads... read more  

Software Engineers still own the cloud-native job boards in 2025 - nearly47%of all Kubernetes-tagged listings. DevOps holds onto second. But Platform Engineers just leapfrogged SREs, which have slid 30% since 2023... read more  

The newHeadlamp Karpenter Pluginwires real-time autoscaling insight straight into the Headlamp UI. It showsKarpenterresources, live metrics, scaling moves—no kubectl spelunking required. NodePoolsandNodeClaimsget mapped to core Kubernetes objects. You can tweak configs in the UI, get validation on t.. read more  

Agentic AI flips the old model. Instead of stateless, event-by-event workloads, we getstateful, self-steering systemsthat observe, reason, plan, and act - on loop. Kubernetes steps up as the OS for this next phase. Boosted by platform engineering, it brings the right mix:ephemeral compute, persisten.. read more
