CNCF On-Demand: Autonomous Agents on K8s – Durable Execution for AI
AI agents are moving out of developer laptops and into production environments, where they need the same operational guarantees as any other cloud-native workload. This session walks through the architectural patterns that are emerging for running…
Breaking the single datacenter assumption Modern AI architectures are built on the assumption of centralized, homogeneous data centers. In reality, infrastructure is messy. For most organizations, compute resources are fragmented across private clouds, research environments, and…
Benchmarking KubeVirt performance with virtbench
Organizations migrating VM estates from traditional hypervisors to KubeVirt often discover that many Kubernetes observability tools were originally designed around container workloads rather than VM-centric operational metrics. While KubeVirt schedules VMs as pods, the performance variables…
Securing CI/CD for an open source project: Controlling who runs what
Part one The last twelve months have been rough on the open source supply chain. Axios was compromised on npm and shipped a remote access trojan inside otherwise normal-looking releases. LiteLLM’s PyPI package was hijacked to…
Inspektor Gadget: Results from the first security audit
Inspektor Gadget, the open source eBPF-based toolkit for Kubernetes observability and Linux host inspection, has completed its first independent security audit. The audit was coordinated by the Open Source Technology Improvement Fund (OSTIF), funded by the…
Challenge A transformative business vision demanded an equally future-ready technology foundation. The program required carefully balancing large-scale transformation with operational continuity—supporting the organization’s immediate business priorities while establishing a scalable, cloud-native foundation for the “Next Generation…
Cloud native is now AI-native: Engineering production-ready AI
At KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe in Amsterdam from March 23-26, CNCF brought together a roundtable with experts in the cloud native ecosystem, including Ellis Tarn of AWS, Allan Naim of Google Cloud, Jorge Palma of Microsoft,…
Dynamic configuration for cloud native Swift services
Modern Swift services increasingly run alongside the same cloud native infrastructure stacks that power much of today’s Kubernetes ecosystem — including ConfigMaps, containerized workloads, declarative deployments, and service lifecycle management. Projects such as Prometheus and OpenTelemetry…
Cloud Native Live Fireside Chat—Powering Private AI: Customer’s View
As enterprises transition from AI experimentation to real-world production, Private AI is quickly becoming a strategic imperative. In this CNCF Fireside Chat, Chris Wolf, Global Head of AI and Advanced Services at VMware by Broadcom, and…
How Jaeger is evolving to trace AI agents with OpenTelemetry
As software architectures evolve, observability tools must adapt. When the industry moved to microservices, distributed tracing became a necessity. Jaeger emerged as a core tool for engineers to understand those fragmented systems. Now, as organizations integrate…
