A Critique of How We've Fooled Ourselves for Years.

At Massdriver.cloud, we are always keen to bring you the latest insights and thought leadership in the world of platform engineering and DevOps. Our latest podcast episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of cloud infrastructure and its evolution.

GitOps isn’t the right fit for modern Ops, DevOps, or platform engineering. Learn why static workflows fail to address dynamic cloud complexity and explore better tools for managing real-time infrastructure.

Managing cloud costs is a difficult task. Massdriver makes it easier with cost insights.

Most Infrastructure as Code implementations expose too much complexity, forcing developers to make infrastructure decisions they shouldn’t have to. This post explores why generic IaC modules fail, how to design abstractions that encode organizational standards while intentionally omitting irrelevant configurations, and how to shift ops from gatekeeping to enablement.

The CIDR problem, and how we fixed it with Auto-CIDR

The Massdriver bundle spec helps engineers provision applications and infrastructure in the cloud while shrinking the surface area of the cloud API

Operations engineering is stuck in the past. This post breaks down why ops hasn’t had the same revolution as software development, explores the limits of DevOps, and argues for scaling expertise through reusable tools and clean abstractions. It’s time for ops to adopt lessons from software engineering and move the industry forward.

For teams ingrained in DevOps practices, this term ushers in a broader horizon, a fresh perspective on managing infrastructure. But what does Platform Engineering offer, especially for those adept in DevOps?
