Airbnb yanked tens of millions of lines of Java, Kotlin, and Scala out of Gradle and dropped them intoBazel. Why? Faster builds, reproducible results, and smoother dev workflows. They didn’t just swap tools—they rewired the whole thing. A customautomated build file generatornow slices up targets fi..

ClickHouse ran five LLMs through an autonomous root cause gauntlet using OpenTelemetry data. None nailed it solo. OpenAI’s o3 and Claude Sonnet 4 came closest. GPT-4.1 was the cheapest brain on the block. Things got weird under the hood. Token usage spiked unpredictably. Queries slammed observabili..

GitHub Advanced Security for Azure DevOps just got sharper: it now checks if leaked secrets are actuallyvalid. Secrets are flagged asActiveorUnknownby pinging providers in real time. No setup needed. It auto-kicks in for supported secret types. Why care?Because not every secret leak is an emergenc..

Marc Brooker breaks down the jump fromAmazon DynamotoDynamoDBandAurora DSQL, tracing how the guts of cloud databases have changed. It’s a story about dropping old trade-offs and picking up stronger guarantees. DynamoDB ditches the old hash-ring replication for multi-AZ replica sets backed by Paxos...

Git worktrees have been around since 2015, but few devs use them like they could. They let you work on multiple branches at once—each in its own directory—without the usual stash-switch-stash-repeat dance. The real power move? Pair them with abare repo. That gives you a clean, central base where ea..

AWS EKS takes the grunt work out of running Kubernetes. It handles the control plane, automates upgrades, hooks into IAM and VPC, and scales without breaking a sweat. Witheksctlandkubectl, devs can launch clusters fast, drop in their YAML, and wire up services through built-in load balancers...

Imagine Learning tore down its old platform and rebuilt it onLinkerdwithAWS EKS, layering inArgo CDandArgo Rollouts. The result? GitOps deploys, canary releases via the Gateway API, and mTLS baked in from the start. The payoff: Over80%cut in compute costs. 97%fewer service mesh CVEs. 20%drop in op..

More devs are spinning upKubernetes clusters on stripped-down Linux distros—thinkRaspberry Pi OS,Debian,Talos Linux,Fedora CoreOS. MicroK8s and k3s make low-power, ARM-first deployments feel less like a science project. Talos Linux? It’s the wildcard—API-only node opsand animmutable, locked-down de..

88% of Kubernetes users say their total costs keep climbing—thanks to overprovisioned clusters, messy architectures, and hands-on ops. So now, 92% are bringing inAI-driven cost toolsto automate rightsizing and squeeze waste from sprawling workloads. System shift:AI isn't just sneaking into cluster ..
