When Kubernetes restarts your pod — And when it doesn’t
A production internals guide verified against Kubernetes 1.35 GACompanion repository: github.com/opscart/k8s-pod-restart-mechanics The terminology problem Engineers say “the pod restarted” when they mean four different things. Getting this wrong leads to flawed runbooks and bad on-call decisions....

Automating root cause analysis at scale: Multi-signal correlation for cloud native incident response
The problem: Humans shouldn’t be correlation engines At Atlassian’s scale, hundreds of interconnected microservices distributed across multiple regions mean a production incident generates an overwhelming volume of telemetry. The problem is that finding the causal factor...

How to turn slow queries into actionable reliability metrics with OpenTelemetry
Slow SQL queries degrade user experience, cause cascading failures, and turn simple operations into production incidents. The traditional fix? Collect more telemetry. But more telemetry means more things to look at, not necessarily more understanding. Instead...

LLMOps and platform engineering: Who should own the AI pipeline?
A few years ago, getting a model into production meant a data scientist, a DevOps engineer, and a narrow set of tools: train it, test it, ship it, watch the dashboards. Large language models broke that...

Shadow AI in CI/CD: Threat-modeling the path from developer laptop to Kubernetes
Artificial intelligence is becoming part of daily software delivery, often before it becomes part of the security architecture. That gap has a name: Shadow AI. It is any AI tool, model, agent, extension, or integration used...

You can’t debug what you can’t see — Observability for AI Agents
This article reflects practical experience building and operating production AI agent systems. Traditional APM can’t tell you why your agent spent far more than usual asking the same question three times. We’ve been running AI agents...

Scaling Kubernetes pods with KEDA based on Amazon SQS queue depth
In event-driven Kubernetes architectures, CPU and memory utilization often fail to reflect real system pressure. A worker pod may sit idle from a CPU perspective while thousands of messages pile up in an Amazon SQS queue....

Why goodput matters more than throughput for LLM serving
When we benchmark an LLM serving setup, the number almost everyone reaches for first is throughput: how many requests per second the system can push through. It is easy to measure, easy to compare, and it...
