Think beyond co-pilots. Agentic AI in ops means agents that observe signals, reason across security and reliability data, and take guarded actions - not just summarize alerts. #ITOps #SecOps https://t.co/e3w3lXkvfc
Autoscaling is a magic part of cloud platforms, and a major reason picking use one. But scaling is often based on proxy metrics decided on by the vendor. We just lit up the ability for horizontal autoscaling on @googlecloud GKE based on...

Most engineers rate limit LLM APIs like normal APIs. Requests per minute. Reject when limit hit. Retry. Sounds fine. Until your system starts throwing 429s even though your rate limiter says you’re under limit. The real problem? LLM APIs limit tokens, concurrency, and requests. Here’s why most rate...

Most people ignore shell scripting. Until production breaks. When servers stop responding, when logs explode, when disk space suddenly gets full — You don’t open a fancy dashboard. You open the terminal. And suddenly, simple commands matter: • grep • awk • sed • top • df Shell scripting is not just about...

Docker vs Kubernetes — explained simply. Docker helps you build and run containers. Kubernetes helps you manage containers across many servers. You don't choose one. You use both together in modern cloud systems. Save this post for quick revision. Follow @devopsshack for more. #devops #kubernetes #docker #devopsshack
Coding has changed, no doubt, but software engineering itself is full of many durable ideas and practices. This post from @milan_milanovic shares a ton of lessons learned from the book "Software Engineering at Google." They still hold up! https://t.co/eOttYk6JAu
Career switches into DevOps succeed when you treat it like production, not theory. ✨ Build something deployable. ✨ 🫧Add logging. 🚨Add alerts. 💔Break it. ❤️Fix it. 💡 That’s the mindset I teach in my free DevOps guides.

LLM logging gets expensive fast. Prompt/response storage. Token metadata. Latency traces. Third-party observability bills. Most teams over-log… then panic at the invoice. If you’re building with LLMs in production, you need telemetry without exploding cloud costs. Here’s how to log smarter ⤵️🩷

Operational LLM engineering is about cost predictability. Model selection matters, but token flow design determines whether your system survives real traffic.
I'll write more about this later, but I've spent the past few days hooking up libghostty with AFL++ and fuzzing various parts of it and agents make the full path of fuzz => verify with test case => minimize =>...

When LLMs generate or modify code, context must include relevant files, not the entire repository. Targeted retrieval keeps outputs accurate and budgets stable.

Terrific thread on agent orchestration architectures. "If an agent started making confident but wrong decisions, how many actions would execute before I could stop it?" The three magic words are "observability", "control flow ownership", and "interruption".
Love to see it! Prediction: within a couple years the terminal GUI will no longer be the primary interface to agents, but there's going to be a hell of a lot of libghostty because agents are going to be increasingly...

You tweak a prompt. It looks better. You ship it. A week later: - quality dips - costs rise - edge cases break Most teams “improve” prompts without proving anything. A/B testing for LLMs isn’t about ego. It’s about real users, real workloads, real cost. Here’s how to...

✨ Transitioning into DevOps isn’t about memorizing tools. ✨ 💡 It’s about understanding systems. Networking, CI/CD, cloud IAM, observability. Focus on how pieces connect, not just commands.
🚨 The fastest way into DevOps is not another certification. 🚨 It’s building a real project with Infrastructure as Code, CI pipelines, monitoring, and incident recovery. I break this down in my free resources.
