Bret and Nirmal reunite for their traditional annual Holiday Special episode of breaking down the most significant developments in cloud native from 2024 and sharing predictions for 2025.💥 This episode is brought to you by our valued sponsor and friends at Aikido!💥 Aikido is a no-nonse platform that helps developers get security done. It consolidates multiple scanning tools like code analysis, dependency analysis, and cloud security into a single platform. Aikido’s superpower is its ability to remove false positives, so you can focus on the real issues. Aikido not only helps you find true vulnerabilities but their new AI features auto triage and even fix issues for you. Aikido is FREE for small teams or anyone wanting to simply explore so check it out today at aikido.devWe touch on infrastructure evolution, exploring Kubernetes fleet management challenges and emerging solutions for simplified tool stacks, we cover essential cloud native trends of 2024, infrastructure automation breakthroughs, notable technical innovations, projects that aspire to be part of CNCF as well as predictions for cloud native in 2025.There's also a video version of this show on YouTube.★Topics★Cloud Native End User Technical Advisory Board (TAB)Adam Jacob's Talk: Reimagining OSS Licensing and Commercialization with Fair Sourcekubevirt [kubevirt.io](https://kubevirt.io) Keda ( https://keda.sh/ ) Cloud Native Reference Architectures (https://architecture.cncf.io/) Karpenter ( Karpenter.sh ) eBPF ( [ebpf.io](https://ebpf.io) ) ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wb_vD3XZYOA ebpf documentary ) ( Ebpf summit https://ebpf.io/summit-2024/ )GitHub Copilot, now Free https://github.blog/news-insights/product-news/github-copilot-in-vscode-free/Kubernetes transitioning into enterprise maturity (https://www.cncf.io/blog/2024/09/04/kubernetes-turns-10-a-ditty-dedicated-to-a-decade-of-container-orchestration/ ) https://www.fairwinds.com/blog/10-years-kubernetes-innovation FinOps matters (https://www.cncf.io/blog/2024/10/31/opencost-advances-to-the-cncf-incubator/ )Read the tea leaves https://github.com/cncf/sandbox/issuesCreators & Guests

Aikido: Is a Single DevSecOps Tool Possible?
Or watch the video version on YouTube. Bret is joined by Willem Delbare and Roeland Delrue to discuss Aikido, a security tool consolidation platform designed specifically for smaller teams and solo DevOps practitioners. The discussion explores how Aikido addresses the growing challenges of software supply chain security by bringing together various security tools - from CVE scanning to cloud API analysis - under a single, manageable portal. Unlike enterprise-focused solutions, Aikido targets the needs of smaller teams and individual DevOps engineers who often juggle multiple responsibilities. During the episode, they demonstrate Aikido's capabilities using Bret's sample GitHub organization, and show how teams can implement comprehensive security measures without managing multiple separate tools.There's also a video version on YouTube.★Topics★Aikido websiteAikido on BlueskyAikido on LinkedInCreators & Guests

DevOps Cert Prep using AI, with the KodeKloud Team
Bret is joined by Mumshad Mannambeth and Vijin Palazhi of KodeKloud for Q&A on what we should be studying and certifying for in 2025. 💥 This episode is brought to you by our valued sponsor and friends at Aikido!💥 Aikido is a no-nonse platform that helps developers get security done. It consolidates multiple scanning tools like code analysis, dependency analysis, and cloud security into a single platform. Aikido’s superpower is its ability to remove false positives, so you can focus on the real issues. Aikido not only helps you find true vulnerabilities but their new AI features auto triage and even fix issues for you. Aikido is FREE for small teams or anyone wanting to simply explore so check it out today at aikido.devThis episode is chalked full of information. We talked about the CNCF Kubestronaut program and how GenAI has changed the cert prep game, and see what tools and techniques we should use to prepare for next year!You've probably seen Mumshad's courses. He has been another person like myself who, for almost a decade, has been making container courses on Docker, Kubernetes, all the tooling. Now he's running a giant platform of learning and they're introducing AI into your learning and certification prep, courses, and skills labs. And we go through all of it. We talk about all of the Linux Foundation certifications they cover. They've launched over 100 courses now on their platform and they cover a lot, if not all of the Linux certifications, especially around Kubernetes and the Cloud Native ecosystem. I'm a huge fan of that. I think this is great stuff for everyone, especially if you're early in your career and you're using certifications as a way to prove your expertise or you're like me, you've been around forever and you want to show that you're up to date. There's also a video version of this show on YouTube.★Topics★KodeKloud websiteCreators & Guests

KubeCon Engineering Takeaways
Bret and Nirmal recorded this special offline episode at KubeCon North America in Salt Lake City. We hung out at the AWS booth to break down the major trends and developments from the conference. The event drew a record-breaking 10,000 attendees, with roughly half being first-timers to the Cloud Native ecosystem. Starting with Cloud Native Rejekts and moving through the pre-conference events, we noticed Platform Engineering emerged as the dominant theme, with its dedicated conference track drawing standing-room-only crowds.The main conference showcased a notable surge in new vendors, particularly in AI and security sectors, representing about a quarter of all exhibitors. We dissect the key engineering trends, ongoing challenges in Cloud Native adoption, and insights gathered from various conferences including ArgoCon, BackstageCon, and Wasm Day. In our 40-minute discussion, we tried to capture the essence of what made this year's KubeCon significant. It's a great listen whether you couldn't attend or if you're a veteran of the Cloud Native community.Watch the video on YouTube. ★Show Links★Port"VM-like container runtime": Microsoft's HyperlightHyperlight Rejekts talkAkcess, easy K8s RBAC CLICloud Native Operational ExcellenceCreators & Guests

Personal AI with Ken Collins
Bret and Nirmal Mehta are joined by Ken Collins to dig into using AI for more than coding, and if we can build an AI assistant that knows us.They touch on a lot of tools and platforms. "We're bit all over the place on this one, from talking about AI features in our favorite note taking apps like Notion, to my journey of making an open AI assistant with all of my Q&A from my courses, thousands of questions and answers, to coding agents and more." Ken is a local friend in Virginia Beach and was on the show last year talking about AWS Lambda, and we've both been trying to find value in all of these AI tools for our day to day work.Watch the video version on YouTube.★Topics★The Lifestyle Copilot Blog PostServerless AI Inference with Gemma 2 Blog Post Creators & Guests
