Sharon and Mike discuss a slew of new reports on platform engineering, DevSecOps in cloud-native environments and observability and Istio loses some service mesh weight with its Ambient project. Then, Mike and Sharon talk about Civo's acquisition of Kubefirst to advance GitOps--and possibly fill the gap left by Weaveworks. Sharon says goodbye as she moves on to a new role outside of Techstrong Group - but the podcast will continue!
