The episode discusses OpenChoreo, an AI-native Kubernetes platform stack for Platform Engineers.

A free 2-hour workshop with hands-on labs to harden your repos and your workflows from common supply chain attacks. I'll cover how attackers are getting in, and then we'll lock down a sample repo so you know what needs to be done to protect your code. You'll leave with a deep understanding of risks and mitigations as well as a list of helpful tools to keep your repos safe, including my new "gasa" tool for scanning your repos and orgs. ★Show Links★ OpenChoreo on CNCF OpenChoreo on GitHub OpenChoreo website SRE Day walkthrough Creators & Guests Cristi Cotovan - Editor Bret Fisher - Host Beth Fisher - Producer Sameera Jayasoma - Guest Lakmal Warusawithana - Guest You can also support this podcast by subscribing to my YouTube channel and my monthly newsletter at bret.news !
