We gave two lightning talks at PromCon:

🎤 Prometheus rules management and validation
🎤 Silence Operator

Nothing crazy, just battle-tested stuff. This is what shows up when you work with people who’ve lived through the pager pain.

We’re speaking at @kcduk.bsky.social next week! Come say hi!

Antonia and Xavier are doing a live demo with a Pi and KubeEdge — Kubernetes at the edge, literally.

@salisburyheavyindustries.com talking about migrating a few hundred clusters to Cluster API and what we learned the hard way.

I've spent today wrapping up my final day at @giantswarm.io.

The past 4 years have been increadible and I've learnt so much and managed to achieve way more than I ever expected. I'm so thankful to all the wonderful colleagues I've had over my time there and wish them all the best without me! 💙

Shiny platform demos are fun. Golden paths, self-service, smooth pipelines.

But Day 2? That’s where things get real.

At KubeCon Japan, @puja.dev breaks down the tough stuff.

Because he’s an overachiever we have Dominik Schmidle giving his second talk of the day! 🤯

“Think Big: Monitoring Stack was yesterday - Observability Platform at scale!”

Observability is so hot right now and it’s so much more than just monitoring.
