Eirini - Bringing Cloud Foundry & Kubernetes Together

Eirini For DevelopersFor Developers there are two big wins from Eirini. Firstly, if you want a Cloud Foundry cluster and you have access to Kubernetes but not VMs, Eirini lets you get it and kick the tires really fast. Secondly when you do need or want to pull the escape hatch and drop down to Kubernetes, everything you’ve cf push-ed is available as native Kubernetes objects under the covers. Eirini For OperatorsThe big win from Eirini, though, is for Operators.

Apple iOS 12.2, Apple News+, Apple Card

Screen Time is pretty good, but can always use more. It has that very Apple feature cycle where you expect more easy release, but they tend to keep it overly simple. The second item below should be good: Screen Time - Downtime can be configured with a different schedule for each day of the week - A new toggle enables easily turning app limits on or off temporarily And a review of Apple News+:

Discussing the common "CIO agenda"

I get asked to talk with “executives” more and more. That’s part of why Pivotal moved me over to Europe. People make lots of claims about what executives want to hear, the conversations you can have with them as a vendor. They don’t have time. You have have to be concise.

Pumping the digital transformation bunny at the US Air Force, an interview with Bryon Kroger

Few organizations have or rely on as much software the US Air Force. There’s plenty of it around and, thus, plenty to be improved. In recent years, one of the more spectacular digital transformation stories has come from the USAF’s work modernizing their Air Operations Control software.

Much of the work is in the “fuzzy front” end of planning and procurement, but as Bryon says, an equally, hearty serving has to do with building up people’s skills, moral, and the overall culture.
