Started a fun new series on DEV to talk about open source projects and their collaboration metrics using our own free tool :) I feel like it will personally help me connect a lot more with the open source community, which is something I want to explore.
I'm super excited about it and am looking forward to sharing my insights with everyone!! (check out the tool yourself too! collab.dev)

I got my first Kubernetes badge from Dev as my blog was the most loved blog for #kubernetes this week.

.
  • My blog talks on talks on how EKS Auto mode saves 77% cost and 2x speed for running GitHub Actions
  • This solution can be implemented on any K8 cluster using Karpenter.
  • There is live YouTube video + GitHub repo link as well with AWS heroes folks to see this in action as well.
