Arrested DevOps

Naga Sujitha Vummaneni and Sundeep Bobba join Matty to talk about their book, which reframes CI/CD pipelines as control systems: actuators, feedback signals, and constraints. They dig into what that model demands once AI agents start shipping code at machine speed, and why a bypassed control is a design signal, not a compliance failure.

Doug Pagnutti spent fifteen years as an automation engineer caught between the IT and OT worlds inside manufacturing plants. The friction sounds a lot like what's been happening in DevOps for over a decade. Matty and Doug dig into why industrial operations never got the memo, and what OT and IT could still learn from each other now that the wall between them is collapsing.

The software industry is experiencing another seismic shift. After decades of agile transformations, cloud migrations, and DevOps revolutions, we're now navigating the integration of AI into the software development lifecycle. But this time feels different—the pace is faster, the technology less mature, and the stakes feel higher. Matty Stratton sat down with Hannah Foxwell and Robert Werner to explore what this transformation means for developers, operations teams, and the organizations they serve.

Kat Cosgrove is back to talk about everyone’s favorite party topic: security. From container vulnerabilities to the chaos of patching, Matty and Kat dig into why “never not hot” feels like security’s permanent brand. Tune in for equal parts practical insight and DevOps-flavored sarcasm.

In this episode of Arrested DevOps, Matty and guest Kat Morgan discuss the ethical, practical, and technical implications of AI. They explore how AI can assist with coding, improve efficiency, and handle tasks, while emphasizing the importance of good practices and staying informed about the impact of AI.
