Cory:
It's Cory from Platform Engineering Podcast. Just wanted to record a quick video to say I'm taking a pause for the summer on recording podcast episodes.
I'll drop a few good reruns into the old playlist though.Maybe some of the old interviews with Mitchell Hashimoto, Adam Jacob, Brian Grant on the you know the the 10 years of all the IaC tools getting built out. There's some really great episodes... there's a few episodes with Kelsey we might drop in... but we'll be coming back in September.
I really want to talk about AI some more then. Obviously it'll be interesting to see if the conversations about the bubble popping or if we all have been replaced by bots by then, but also would love to interview people that are working on interesting open source tools in the platform and DevOps space.
So if you are an open source maintainer working on something that you would love to talk about, feel free to reach out to [email protected]. If you are just somebody who works in the DevOps and platform space and there's somebody that you want to hear interviewed on the show, send me an email, tell me who it is. I'm really good at annoying people via email to come on the show.
Yeah so why am I taking the break? Honestly, it's just getting crazy over here. I do have a day job where I CEO a dev tools company called Massdriver. We've 3x maybe 4x in the past six months so it's just getting really crazy over here. We're scaling up, starting to hire, about to do another fundraise, got a ton of sales calls going on so pretty much until I just grow the business a little bit this summer... I just gotta kind of put my priorities elsewhere for a few weeks. But we will definitely be coming back once I get some more teammates to help me out.
So shoot me an email at [email protected] if you are interested in coming on the show or have somebody you'd love to see interviewed.
And if you are looking for a way to manage cloud infrastructure, definitely also check out MassDriver.Cloud. We're an infrastructure automation platform. Engineers diagram cloud infrastructure. Massdriver does all of the provisioning behind the scenes using the IaC tools, IaC modules and compliance tooling that your operations team set up. So developers get self service as simple as diagramming and you get all of the best things of the cloud, IaC, state management environments, et cetera without having to think about building the platform.
So I will see you all in September. Would love to read some emails in the meantime. Thanks so much. See you soon.
