A fun conversation with @emaxerrno in the tradeoffs to owning your intelligence. We’re solving some of the problems with @ModelplaneAI check it out.
The largest inference operations share one pattern: a declarative reconcile loop.
@bassamtabbara, Founder and CEO at @upbound_io, points to CoreWeave, running Kubernetes to no VMs, just containers.

Our Claude code bill will go from $2.5K/mo to $32K/mo once Anthropic stops subsidizing team plans. I wrote about it here modelplane.ai/blog/ai-coding…

@ModelplaneAI is likely the greatest testimonial to the power of @crossplane_io as a framework for orchestration
Can you build a control plane for a fleet of GPUs entirely on Crossplane? No custom controllers, just compositions and composition functions? ✈️
The team behind Modelplane spent a few months finding out. The rough edges they hit went upstream.

@bgurley names the playbook we’ve been running for eight years.
Crossplane ran it at the infrastructure control plane layer - CNCF as referee, coalition of everyone-not-the-incumbent, Graduated.
The same play is available across AI infrastructure and everywhere else a closed Cathedral is forming. The coalition is already there. It just needs a neutral home.
A new @bgurley blog post!
I have been thinking about how sophisticated executives are using open source in super creative ways. Started writing this three years ago. Excited to finish it up and publish it! And with the new @p3institute brand.

Great convo @upbound_io booth during KubeCon Amsterdam about how UXP makes @crossplane_io more enterprise-ready. It adds a UI, backup & restore, stronger secrets management through a secrets proxy, & fleet management with Spaces available both as a cloud service & self-hosted.
Crossplane maintainers will be at #KubeConEU booth 485 next week.
If you’ve got questions, ideas, or just want to meet others working on platform engineering, come say hi. We’re also running live demos and would love to see what you’re working on.

Cancún 🇲🇽 was more than a kickoff for Upbound. It was a signal.
We’ve more than tripled revenue 📈 and leveled up across product, community, and team.
We’re building at the intersection of autonomy and authority in the enterprise 🤖.
FY27 = acceleration 🚀
Global team kickoff in Cancún 🇲🇽 and the momentum is 🔥
Big strategy. Major growth ahead.
We worked hard, saw cenotes and Mayan ruins, aligned on big bets, and we’re hiring!
This year is going to be BIG. Come build with us 🚀 utm.guru/ulJ6s

AI-native infrastructure must translate intent into execution, without humans becoming the bottleneck.
We’re reducing friction from first click to real usage with unified navigation, usage-based pricing, and more.

Stuck writing a Kubernetes controller?
What if you could build one with zero code, in plain English?
Our latest post shows how Crossplane Operations + LLMs & AI enable a code-free controller that watches & enforces desired state.

Fine-grained access control is hard to build. Cedar, a #CNCF sandbox project, centralizes the complexity.
In this session, learn how we push the boundaries of #Kubernetes control plane access controls.
#KCD
#KubeCon NA 2025 brought huge momentum for platform engineering and AI. Big week for Upbound with Crossplane 2.0 and graduation 🎓, packed demos, great sessions, and incredible community energy. Catch recordings of the talks and the workshop ➡️ utm.guru/ujotx

Platform engineering has emerged as one of the most significant shifts in the cloud native ecosystem.
Thanks to @CloudNativeFdn and @upbound_io

@satyanadella recent @dwarkesh_sp podcast revealed their AI strategy: avoid betting on a single generation.
Multi-cloud took a decade. Multi-AI might take 3 years.

Google’s new report shows AI only works when your platform is strong. That’s why we built @crossplane_io and @upbound_io: declarative APIs for apps, platforms, and infra. Agentic AI depends on this. If your platform isn’t ready, your AI won’t be either.
