Why this blog exists, what it will cover, and how I intend to write it.

metaplatform

After 25+ years building and running infrastructure, I've accumulated a lot of hard-won opinions and very few of them are written down. This site fixes that.

What to expect

Posts will fall into a few recurring areas:

  • Platform engineering and DevEx — building internal platforms engineers actually choose to use.
  • Cloud governance and FinOps — guardrails that scale, and spend that maps to value.
  • Resilience — regionless HA/DR, failure domains, and recovery you have genuinely tested.
  • AI platforms — MCP, governed gateways and treating AI as a platform capability rather than a pile of experiments.

How I'll write

Practical over theoretical. Every post should leave you with something you can apply on Monday: a decision framework, a checklist, or a mistake you don't have to make yourself.

The best platform is the one nobody has to think about.
