AI UX Building
In this episode of Cloud2030, we explore AI’s transformative impact on user experience (UX) and the relevance of stochastic and deterministic systems in designing effective AI interfaces. We give our predictions about the decline of traditional form-based UX in favor of conversational interfaces that allow users to interact with AI more naturally.We go into how…
Kubernetes as a Common Platform
This week we examine the emergence of Kubernetes as a common infrastructure platform. We contrast cloud assumptions with bare-metal reality and dig deep on supportability, repairability, and the operational challenges of networking, storage, GPUs, and other specialized systems. We also get into brittle vendor tooling, version changes, and how these can make remediation difficult. I…
Kubecon SC25 Debrief
In this episode, we debrief several industry events I went to last year, including Supercomputing, KubeCon, Stack, the AI Infrastructure Show, and the Red Hat AI Infrastructure Summit. We dive deep into some observations from the shows and what they tell us about the gaps and fractures in how we are working to build AI…
AWS Outage
In this episode, we discuss the October 2025 Amazon outage. The conversation took place during the outage, and though it’s been a few months now, the insights and discussions are still very interesting. We trace how a DynamoDB and DNS-related failure cascaded through core AWS services and had a larger blast radius than expected. We…
Back After a Break
In this episode, we discuss the rising cost of using AI and how usage-based pricing, model changes, and capacity limits are affecting daily work as AI moves from experimentation into operational use. We also talk about multi-model workflows, hybrid infrastructure, and examples of using hosted models alongside open models locally for tasks such as writing…
MCP Agents and Context
In this episode, we continue our journey even deeper into how agentic vibe coding and other AI-based automation. This time we focus on Model Control Protocol (MCP) and its application in our bare metal automation solution, Digital Rebar. We examine deterministic versus stochastic AI approaches and the importance of reliable system integration without competing with…
