The Lovable Experience. Enterprise Governance. Your Infrastructure. We Built It.

Introducing the AI Builder Portal - the governed alternative to Lovable and Bolt.new for enterprise. Same one-click builder experience, running on your Kubernetes cluster, under your governance. Romaric founded Qovery to make Kubernetes accessible to every engineering team. He writes about platform strategy, developer experience, and the future of cloud infrastructure.

Understanding GPU cloud instance types: How to read a spec sheet for real-world ML performance

A GPU spec sheet is a confidence trick. It looks like an objective document - numbers, units, comparable rows - but most of the numbers on it don't map cleanly to the performance a real workload will see. Teams that pick GPUs by reading the headline figures usually find out the gap between spec and reality somewhere around the first production run. This is a working guide to reading GPU cloud instance specifications against actual ML workloads. The goal isn't to recommend a card.

High Cardinality Metrics At Scale: A Better Playbook

The “high cardinality is expensive” sentence has become observability’s version of “in this economy” — said so often that nobody questions whether it’s true. Every vendor pricing page invokes it. Every glossary article repeats it. Every architecture diagram shows aggregation buffers placed before the storage layer.

Konstruct product updates: Global resources, MCP support, and smarter permissions

May has been one of our busiest months yet for Konstruct. Across three releases, 0.5, 0.5.1, and 0.5.2, we've shipped some of the most requested platform-level changes since we launched: a unified model for sharing resources across organizations, native support for AI-driven workflows via MCP, a completely redesigned API keys experience, and a cleanup to how permissions actually work in multi-org environments. Let's walk through what shipped and why it matters.

Uber blew its annual AI budget in 4 months

Uber burned through its entire annual AI budget in under 4 months. Here's what went wrong — and what every engineering org should be doing instead. The data: 80% more code is getting pushed with AI… but only 18% of AI-written code actually ships to production. That's not a productivity story. That's a spend problem. If you're scaling AI tooling without real-time monitoring and guardrails, you're Uber.

I thought I invented this. Then I opened TikTok

The video was a product manager who claimed she worked at Netflix. (Her claim, not mine. I have no way of verifying it, and I can’t find the video now.) She was talking about how Netflix now requires every PM to vibe code a working prototype before presenting an idea to engineering. Show, don't spec. Build the thing first. I sat there for about ten seconds being mildly annoyed.

How a unified data model improves feature flag rollout decisions

Consolidation is reshaping the experimentation and feature management landscape. Tools are merging, and partnerships are being repackaged as platforms. But marketing a unified experience is not the same as building one. Right now, engineering leaders and product managers are reassessing whether the tools they depend on are built for the long term. It’s irrelevant which vendor has the most products.

Can DevOps work in regulated industries?

Cortex co-founder and CTO Ganesh Datta sits down with Matt Bailey, DevOps consultant and founder of Merge Ready. Matt shares lessons from helping large regulated organizations in finance, healthcare, and government transform their DevOps practices, and explains why DevOps is an outcome rather than a toolchain.

Cortex | Workflows Run API

Cortex Workflows can now be triggered externally via the Workflows Run API (beta). In this video, Solutions Architect Jeff Schnitter walks through how to trigger a workflow from the Cortex CLI, pass context via a JSON file, and run synchronously or asynchronously. Requires CLI v1.15.0+ and the "runnable via API" toggle enabled on the workflow. To enable the Workflows Run API in your workspace, contact your CSM.
