He said “Hiiiiii Rich!!”

I guess I’ll pop back in here with an update: Three months ago I adopted a puppy, Benito 🐶

🤖 Wondering “How does Crossplane enable an AI world?”

The real challenge is everything that happens after git push. Infra provisioning. Policy enforcement. Day-two ops. Drift. Compliance. + more

⏩ AI needs APIs, not UIs.

thank you ATL for a fun week reconnecting with friends, community builders and coworkers 💙

The future of infrastructure is agent-driven. Autonomous AI needs declarative intent, reliable APIs, and continuous convergence. That’s the foundation of the Intelligent Control Plane. upbound.io/intelligent-...

Google’s new report shows AI only works when your platform is strong. That’s why we built @crossplane.io and @upbound.io
: declarative APIs for apps, platforms, and infra. Agentic AI depends on this. If your platform isn’t ready, your AI won’t be either.

I guess it’s that time where I start using and posting on social media again 🙈 sorry 🫣

Kubernetes is the sum of all the shell scripts, and practices, system administrators have cobbled together over time, presented as a single system behind a declarative set of APIs.

Kubernetes and AI Are Shaping the Next Generation of Platforms In the era of AI, platforms need to become adaptive, context-aware and capable of serving both humans and machines.

Now catching the panel: Are You Ready for Platform Adoption

#kubecon #platformengineering

Starting the afternoon at the co-located Platform Engineering Day afternoon with the first panel discussion of this #KubeCon #CloudNativeCon about... Platform Adoption ! I will most likely just share some raw quotes that struck me :)

Release v2.0.0-preview.1 · crossplane/crossplane Crossplane v2 Preview This is the first preview release of Crossplane v2! 🎉 Crossplane v2 makes Crossplane more useful, more intuitive, and less opinionated. Crossplane v2 makes three major changes...

We've learned a lot of lessons over the 6 years of Crossplane along with our amazing community of adopters. The most important lessons are ready for you to take for a test spin in this Crossplane v2 preview release!

Try it out today and let us know what you think! 🤩

First up is @medina.bsky.social Leena Mooneeram and @wiggitywhitney.bsky.social where we have had just so much fun prepping a panel that due to our amazing connection has turned into more of a 4 person talk and the audience will be in for a treat because of it! sched.co/1u5m3

“A dazzling set of purple-themed nails bringing full tech-meets-London realness! Each nail features iconic designs—from the Union Jack and the London Eye to tube signs. The thumbs proudly rep the Kubernetes logo like tiny cloud-native champions, while the pinkies subtly flex the Crossplane logo. It’s like a DevOps summit crashed into a British postcard—and everyone’s invited.”

These nails are #KubeCon ready ✨ #Kubernetes #coderclaws

Rocking #CNCF Project logos for @kubernetes.io and @crossplane.io 💕

Drop a hey if you’re attending so we can run into each other 👋🏽

@adrianamvillela.bsky.social and @medina.bsky.social 👩🏽‍💻 spoke about “infra as code 3 ways” at @socallinuxexpo.bsky.social they highlighted, compared and contrast the differences of OpenTofu, Pulumi, and Crossplane! I learned a lot and the raccoon and visuals made their talk so much fun!
