AWS Frontier Agents: Kiro, DevOps Agent, and Security Agent

“Frontier Agents” drop straight into incident workflows. They kick off investigations on their own, whether triggered by alarms or a human hand, pulling together logs, metrics, and deployment context fast. Findings show up where they’re needed: Slack threads, tickets, operator dashboards. No shell c.. read more

Securing Agents in Production (Agentic Runtime, #1)

Palantir's AIP Agentic Runtime isn't just another agent platform, it's a control plane with teeth. Think tight policy enforcement, ephemeral autoscaling with Kubernetes (Rubix), and memory stitched in from the jump viaOntology. Tool usage? Traced and locked down with provenance-based security. Every.. read more

Keeping 20,000 GPUs healthy

Modal unpacked how it keeps a 20,000+ GPU fleet sane across AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI. Think autoscaling, yes, but with some serious moves behind the curtain. They're running instance benchmarking, enforcing machine image consistency, running boot-time checks, and tracking GPU health both passively a.. read more

Is that allowed? Authentication and authorization in Model Context Protocol

TheModel Context Protocol (MCP) 2025-11-25spec tightens up remote agent auth. It leans intoOAuth 2.1 Authorization Code grants, PKCE required, step-up auth backed. No token passthrough allowed. What’s new: experimental extensions forclient credentialsandclient ID metadata. These smooth out agent reg.. read more

I Cannot SSH Into My Server Anymore (And That’s Fine)

A dev ditched their $100/month VPS for a clean, automated CoreOS setup. No SSH. No clicking around. JustIgnition,Podman Quadlets, andTerraformdoing the heavy lifting. It boots from YAML, spins up containers with systemd, and keeps itself fresh withPodman auto-updates, zero-touch, straight from the r.. read more

CodeBreach: Supply Chain Vuln & AWS CodeBuild Misconfig

Wiz Research dropped details onCodeBreach, a serious flaw that cracked open AWS SDK GitHub repos, yes, including the popular JavaScript one. The root problem? Leakyregex filtersin CodeBuild pipelines. They missed anchors, so attackers slipped in rogue pull requests, dodged build rules, and stole hig.. read more

Nanoservices: Why Serverless Got Architecture Right

A fresh take onAWS Lambdaand serverless: thinknanoservices- tiny, isolated functions instead of chunky microservices. No shared state or shared runtime but clean separation, lean logic, and fewer ways to screw up scaling. Where microservices can spiral into spaghetti, nanoservices stay crisp. Each f.. read more

Supply-chain risk of agentic AI - infecting infrastructures via skill worms

AI assistants with shell, network, or filesystem "skills" don't just help, they expose. These hooks can run commands before any human checks the model’s output. That means a bigger attack surface. More room for lateral movement. Easier persistence. In setups where tools like Claude Code run often, i.. read more

AWX is the open source, community supported upstream project for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, formerly known as Ansible Tower. It gives teams a web based interface, a full REST API, and a distributed task engine on top of Ansible, turning command line playbook runs into a managed, auditable automation service.

The project began at AnsibleWorks as the commercial Ansible Tower product, and after Red Hat acquired Ansible, it open sourced the codebase as AWX in September 2017, positioning it as the development ground where new features land before they are hardened into the supported Automation Platform controller. With AWX, you organize automation around projects (synced from Git or other source control), inventories (static or dynamically pulled from cloud providers), credentials (stored encrypted and injected at runtime), and job templates that tie a playbook to its inventory and credentials. On top of that, it adds role based access control, a visual dashboard, job scheduling, workflow chaining, webhooks, and real time job output, so multiple teams can run, track, and delegate automation without sharing SSH keys or sitting at a terminal.

Modern AWX runs on Kubernetes or OpenShift through the AWX Operator, which manages installation, upgrades, and scaling declaratively, reflecting its shift from a single host application to a cloud native, container based platform. Because it is the upstream of a paid product, AWX moves fast and ships frequently, which makes it ideal for labs, learning, and self managed deployments, though teams needing formal support and long term stability typically run the downstream Automation Platform instead.
