What We're About
Serverless Infra, DevOps, Data & Startup Builders is a growing Austin-based community of engineers, founders, and tech mischief-makers. We’re building together at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, DevOps, platform engineering, and startups.

CI/CD pipelines for K8s that don’t suck
Platform engineering war stories: what worked, what didn’t
GitOps, ArgoCD, Flux, and other buzzwords in action
Kubernetes cost control without crying
K8s observability stacks: Prometheus, Loki, Grafana, OpenTelemetry
Stateful workloads and surviving etcd horror stories
Infra as Code: Terraform, Crossplane, and beyond
Stateless and Stateful walks into a bar ... what happens next?
