Ship It Weekly - DevOps, SRE, Platform and Cloud Engineering News

Teller's Tech - DevOps, SRE and Cloud Podcast

Ship It Weekly is a short, practical recap of what actually matters in DevOps, SRE, cloud infrastructure, and platform engineering. Each episode, your host Brian Teller walks through the latest outages, releases, tools, and incident writeups, then translates them into “here’s what this means for your systems” instead of just reading headlines. Expect a couple of main stories with context, a quick hit of tools or releases worth bookmarking, and the occasional segment on on-call, burnout, or team culture. This isn’t a certification prep show or a lab walkthrough. It’s aimed at people who are already working in the space and want to stay sharp without scrolling status pages, cloud updates, and blogs all week. You’ll hear about things like cloud provider incidents, Kubernetes and platform trends, Terraform and infrastructure changes, and real postmortems that are actually worth your time. Most episodes are 15–30 minutes, so you can catch up on the way to work or between meetings. Every now and then there will be a “special” focused on a big outage or a specific theme, but the default format is simple: what happened, why it matters, and what you might want to do about it in your own environment. If you’re the person people DM when something is broken in prod, or you’re building the cloud and platform everyone else ships on top of, Ship It Weekly is meant to be in your rotation.

    GitHub Supply Chain Attacks, Railway’s GCP Outage, Discord’s Voice Failure, AWS Retry Changes, and Trusted Tool Risk

    This episode of Ship It Weekly is about trusted tools becoming production dependencies. Brian covers a rough GitHub supply chain week, including the compromised Nx Console VS Code extension tied to exposed GitHub internal repositories and the Megalodon campaign abusing GitHub Actions workflows across thousands of public repos. The bigger thread this week is that the tools around production are increasingly part of production. Brian also covers Railway’s GCP account suspension outage, Discord’s voice outage during a Kubernetes migration, AWS changing SDK retry behavior, CVE-2026-9133 in the RabbitMQ AWS plugin, and a Reddit story about stolen AWS keys turning into a $14,000 Bedrock bill. Brian also touches on OpenTelemetry graduating from the CNCF, Claude Code security risk, GitLab Secrets Manager, Google Cloud AI spend caps, and a Redshift Python driver RCE.

    Ship It Conversations: Jake Warner on Cycle.io, Bare Metal’s Comeback, and Why Private Cloud Is Getting Interesting Again

    This is a guest conversation episode of Ship It Weekly, separate from the weekly news recaps. In this Ship It: Conversations episode, I talk with Jake Warner, founder and CEO of Cycle.io, about private cloud, bare metal, Kubernetes fatigue, and why some teams are rethinking how much infrastructure complexity they actually want to carry. We talk about why bare metal and private cloud are getting interesting again, especially around cost, performance, data sovereignty, compliance, and platform ownership. Jake explains how Cycle approaches infrastructure as a pool of resources, why he thinks in terms of “environments as code” instead of traditional infrastructure as code, and how teams can run containers and VMs together across bare metal, cloud, and hybrid environments. The bigger theme here is that this is not really a “cloud versus bare metal” conversation. It is about choosing the right level of abstraction. Sometimes Kubernetes is the right answer. Sometimes managed cloud services make sense. And sometimes teams just need a more opinionated platform that lets developers ship without requiring a large DevOps army to keep everything running. Highlights • Why some teams are moving back toward private cloud and bare metal • The role of cost, data sovereignty, compliance, and performance in infrastructure decisions • Why bare metal does not have to mean going back to old-school racking and stacking pain • How Cycle turns raw compute into a private cloud-style resource pool • Why Jake thinks about “environments as code” instead of only infrastructure as code • What “no DevOps army required” means in practice for engineering-heavy teams • Why some companies need VMs and containers running together on the same platform • Where Kubernetes still makes sense, especially for highly customized infrastructure needs • Why opinionated platforms can be valuable when teams want fewer knobs and better defaults • Active-active thinking, failover risk, and why application-level replication often matters more than platform-level storage magic • Why bandwidth, performance density, and predictable pricing can make bare metal attractive again • The weird continued gravity of AWS us-east-1, even for teams trying to move workloads elsewhere • How AI workloads, GPUs, and hype cycles fit into the private cloud and platform conversation • Jake’s advice for modernizing hybrid or on-prem infrastructure: containerize first, then look hard at your dependencies Jake’s links • Cycle.io: https://cycle.io/ • Cycle Slack community: https://slack.cycle.io/ • Jake Warner on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jakewarner/ Our links More episodes + show notes + links: https://shipitweekly.fm On Call Brief: https://oncallbrief.com

    CISA’s GitHub Leak, AI Root Cause Analysis, Copilot Agents, Claude Code in CI/CD, and Kubernetes Seccomp Risk

    This episode of Ship It Weekly is about secrets, agents, risky defaults, and follow-up work that never gets done. Brian covers the CISA contractor GitHub leak involving AWS keys, internal docs, Terraform, Kubernetes, Argo CD, and CI/CD context, plus AWS DevOps Agent doing automated RCA across Datadog, Elasticsearch, CloudTrail, and EKS. Brian also covers MS Copilot Studio computer-using agents, Claude Code in Bitbucket Agentic Pipelines, CVE-2026-46333 and Kubernetes seccomp defaults, GitHub OIDC for Dependabot, Java pods getting OOMKilled, LLM-generated SQL that can be wrong but still run, and why postmortem action items die without ownership.

    AI Agents Get API Access and Identity: GitHub Copilot Cloud Agents, MCP Auth, Ansible Automation, OpenAI Daybreak, and the New Production Risk

    This episode of Ship It Weekly is about AI agents moving from helpful coding assistants into real operational actors. Brian covers GitHub making Copilot cloud agent tasks available through a REST API, Auth0 bringing authentication and authorization to MCP servers, Red Hat positioning Ansible as a trusted execution layer for agentic IT operations, and OpenAI Daybreak pushing AI deeper into security research and remediation. The bigger thread this week is authority: what these agents can reach, what they can change, who approved the action, and who owns the outcome when something breaks. Brian also covers Discord’s ScyllaDB automation work, AWS GuardDuty crypto mining detection, queues and back pressure, and a Datadog PostgreSQL case where an index scan was still painfully slow.

    Cursor Deletes PocketOS Prod DB, .de DNSSEC Outage, Bluesky Postmortem, Argo CD, and Copy Fail

    This episode of Ship It Weekly is about modern reliability getting squeezed from both directions. Old-school failures still hit hard, like broken DNSSEC, kernel privilege escalation bugs, and GitOps behavior changes. But newer automation layers add a second kind of risk, where AI agents, machine identity, and cloud control planes can do real damage fast when authority is too broad. Brian covers the Cursor and PocketOS production database wipe, the .de DNSSEC outage and Cloudflare’s response, Bluesky’s April outage postmortem, Argo CD v3.1.16 reaching end of life plus the v3.4.1 behavior change, Linux kernel CVE-2026-31431 under active exploitation, and why Google Cloud Agent Identity and AWS MCP Server GA both point to agents becoming first-class infrastructure actors.

  6. Ship It Conversations: Gareth Kersey on IaCConf 2026, AI, and Corey Quinn’s Terraform Keynote

    Ship It Conversations: Gareth Kersey on IaCConf 2026, AI, and Corey Quinn’s Terraform Keynote

    This is a guest conversation episode of Ship It Weekly, separate from the weekly news recaps. This episode is not sponsored. I wanted to cover IaCConf because the theme lines up closely with what Ship It Weekly focuses on: infrastructure, platform engineering, DevOps, SRE, and how teams are adapting to AI-driven change. In this Ship It: Conversations episode, I talk with Gareth Kersey about IaCConf 2026, a free virtual conference focused on infrastructure as code, platform engineering, DevOps, SRE, and infrastructure operations. The conference is May 14th 2026. The main theme is “keeping pace.” Not just keeping pace with new tools, but keeping pace with the speed of software delivery now that AI is changing how quickly application teams can write, ship, and change code. We talk about what that means for the infrastructure teams underneath it all: the people responsible for Terraform, Kubernetes, GitOps, policies, secrets, cost, security, rollback paths, and making sure faster delivery does not turn into faster chaos. Gareth walks through the IaCConf 2026 agenda, including Corey Quinn’s keynote, AI and Terraform sessions, platform engineering panels, Kubernetes and Argo CD talks, AI agents managing infrastructure as code, governance challenges, and the risk of 10x code velocity becoming 10x operational risk. The bigger theme here is that AI is not just changing how code gets written. It is changing the pressure on the systems around delivery. Infrastructure as code, platform engineering, policy, and operational guardrails matter even more when the pace of change goes up. Highlights • What “keeping pace” means for infrastructure, DevOps, SRE, and platform teams • Why faster application development can create more downstream operational pressure • Corey Quinn’s keynote, “AI Speaks Terraform Like a Tourist” • How AI-generated infrastructure changes create new governance and review challenges • Why infrastructure as code still matters as AI agents and automation become more common • Sessions covering Terraform, Kubernetes, Argo CD, GitOps, platform engineering, and AI-driven workflows • The risk of 10x code velocity turning into 10x operational risk • How platform teams can support faster developers without giving up safety or governance • Why IaCConf includes panels, demos, technical talks, and practitioner stories instead of only tool-specific content • How IaCConf has grown from its first event in 2025 into a broader infrastructure community • Why the event is trying to stay community-focused instead of becoming just another vendor marketing conference • The role of feedback, future spotlight events, in-person meetups, and possible community spaces around IaCConf • Why registering still makes sense even if you cannot attend live, since sessions are available afterward IaCConf links • IaCConf 2026 registration page - https://www.iacconf.com/iacconf-2026 • IaCConf LinkedIn page - https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/iac-conf/ • IaCConf: https://www.iacconf.com/ • IaCConf is supported by Spacelift: https://spacelift.com Our links More episodes + show notes + links: https://shipitweekly.fm On Call Brief: https://oncallbrief.com

    GitHub RCE, AI Agent Prompt Injection, and the New Reality: Your Developer Toolchain Is Production Now

    This episode of Ship It Weekly is about the developer toolchain becoming part of production. Brian covers GitHub’s critical git push RCE, AI-assisted reverse engineering, prompt injection against AI agents in GitHub workflows, Elementary’s malicious CLI release, GitHub’s merge queue regression, Cal.com going closed source, and Copilot moving toward usage-based billing.

  8. Kubernetes 1.36, Gateway API v1.5, AWS Copilot End of Support, and Cloudflare Non-Human Identities

    24 Nis

    Kubernetes 1.36, Gateway API v1.5, AWS Copilot End of Support, and Cloudflare Non-Human Identities

    This episode of Ship It Weekly is about platforms getting sharper about defaults, ownership, and the old paths they are no longer willing to quietly carry forever. Brian covers Kubernetes 1.36 and why it feels more like a cleanup-and-maturity release than a flashy feature dump, Gateway API v1.5 moving more networking behavior into the stable path, AWS Copilot CLI reaching end of support and what that means for teams still sitting on the older “easy” ECS workflow, Airbnb’s alert-development overhaul and why noisy or weak alerts are often a workflow problem long before they become an on-call problem, and Cloudflare’s push to treat scripts, agents, and third-party tools like real identities with real blast radius. He also hits the latest Azure DevOps Server patches and Google’s OTLP metrics support for Cloud Monitoring.
