Saved me a lot of time on pod crash debugging. Open source, worth trying.</li> <li> <strong>AI-assisted incident triage</strong> — tools that correlate logs + metrics and surface root cause faster than manual grep-ing through Kibana</li> <li> <strong>Natural language infra provisioning</strong> — still early but some teams are running Terraform via prompts in CI pipelines</li> </ul> <p><strong>What's still overhyped:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Fully autonomous<a href="https://dev.tourl"></a> remediation without human approval (too risky in prod)</li> <li>AI writing your Helm charts from scratch (output needs heavy review)</li> </ul> <p>Wrote a longer breakdown on my blog if anyone wants<a href="https://dev.tourl"></a> the full list with tool comparisons: <a href="https://infradecode.com" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://infradecode.com</a></p> <p>Curious what tools others are actually running in production — anything I missed?****</p> ai devops kubernetes k8s
