The 2023 debate was about licensing. The 2026 decision is about control plane ownership. Three years after HashiCorp moved Terraform from MPL to BSL, teams that delayed switching are now facing renewal cycles, growing HCP dependency, and organizational pressure around vendor lock-in. Here’s the decision framework for infrastructure teams evaluating their path forward. What Actually […]
We’re experiencing an “everything changed” moment for IT operations and site reliability engineering. Driven by AI-assisted development, cloud adoption, and Kubernetes auto-scaling, infrastructure deployments are scaling at unprecedented rates—while traditional observability tools struggle to keep pace with rising system complexity. Closing this gap requires four foundational pillars that enable observability to scale alongside infrastructure: cost-effective […]
At KubeCon EU 2026 in Amsterdam, Broadcom announced that Velero—the Kubernetes-native backup, restore, and migration tool—has been accepted into the CNCF Sandbox. The move traces a governance chain from Heptio → VMware → Broadcom → CNCF, and marks a significant shift in how the project will be maintained. But what does this actually mean for […]
