Change Management with the Pulumi Kubernetes Operator and Kargo (5 minute read)
The Pulumi Kubernetes Operator (PKO) now integrates with Kargo, a continuous promotion platform, to manage Pulumi stacks as Kubernetes resources with controlled, staged promotions and verification. Kargo updates the Stack resources with new Git references, triggering PKO to reconcile the stack and apply infrastructure changes, enabling systematic control over multi-environment rollouts. A Kargo dashboard provides operational visibility, displaying freight versions, promotion paths, and real-time health information, while custom roles and analysis templates enforce deployment standards automatically. |

How to monitor AI agent applications on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore with Grafana Cloud (7 minute read)
This post details how to deploy an AI agent on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore with observability powered by OpenTelemetry and Grafana Cloud. OpenLit provides automatic instrumentation for AI frameworks, and Grafana Cloud's AI Observability dashboards can be used to monitor agent performance, debug production issues using distributed tracing, and optimize costs by tracking token usage and model performance. A research assistant agent powered by CrewAI and Meta's Llama 3 is used as an example in the post. |
Terraform vs OpenTofu: Which IaC tool fits your platform strategy? (5 minute read)
HashiCorp's Terraform infrastructure-as-code tool was forked to create OpenTofu in response to HashiCorp's license change in August 2023. OpenTofu operates under a Mozilla Public License 2.0 under the Linux Foundation, while Terraform uses a Business Source License restricting some commercial use. Key differences also include OpenTofu's native state file encryption versus Terraform's reliance on external solutions. Platform teams should consider governance requirements, long-term risk tolerance, and alignment with their overall engineering strategy when choosing between the two tools. |

From chaos to clarity: How OpenTelemetry unified observability across clouds (4 minute read)
An organization with a multi-cloud approach across AWS, Azure, and GCP reduced fragmented visibility, long outages, and frustrated engineers by adopting OpenTelemetry (OTel), a CNCF graduated project. With OTel, the organization was able to treat observability as part of their platform engineering strategy by unifying a fragmented, multi-cloud ecosystem and giving developers the flexibility to focus on building features instead of wrestling with telemetry. |
