Right after my keynote at DevOps Pro Europe 2025, I shared a message I keep repeating: 👉 AI alone won’t shape the future. Cybernetic systems will. It’s about creating a platform where humans and AI collaborate in constant feedback loops. DevOps and platform engineering are the foundation, AI is just one capability on top. 🔁 “AI is not the future – cybernetics is.” 💡 Build a cybernetic platform. Empower AI as a capability. Keep humans in the loop. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ L I N K S 🔗▬▬▬▬▬▬ DevOpsPro Europe: https://devopspro.lt/ Link to my Keynote: https://youtu.be/9HIoUOqTYr4 Link to the original video: https://youtu.be/deTbXubSlEc?si=g7YaathyDohWOzvB ▬▬▬▬▬▬ S U B S C R I B E 🔔 ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ╔═╦╗╔╦╗╔═╦═╦╦╦╦╗╔═╗ ║╚╣║║║╚╣╚╣╔╣╔╣║╚╣═╣ ╠╗║╚╝║║╠╗║╚╣║║║║║═╣ ╚═╩══╩═╩═╩═╩╝╚╩═╩═╝ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXvlc9x4zlv5DEqbby55Ivg?sub_confirmation=1 ▬▬▬▬▬▬ Connect with me 👋 ▬▬▬▬▬▬ LINKEDIN ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/romanoroth/ TWITTER ► https://twitter.com/RomanoRoth INSTAGRAM ► https://www.instagram.com/romanoroth/ FACEBOOK ►https://www.facebook.com/romanoroth/ MEETUP ► https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/DevOps-Meetup-Zurich/ CONFERNCE ►https://www.devopsdays.ch/ HOMEPAGE ► https://www.romanoroth.com/ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ P L A Y L I S T S ▶️ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ Modern Software Engineering https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrsbMazVPK_rb56rZQr2fyBGR3cyanZpX DevOps https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrsbMazVPK_ro3fn1G-3Ui2mBPHxOD9kF GitLab: Build a DevSecOps Pipeline https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrsbMazVPK_qhf3ahA_zRPlwBaGGhSu2P #AI #Cybernetics #DigitalTransformation #Cyberneticenterprise #PlatformEngineering #DevOps #Zühlke #CyberneticDeliveryPlatform #romanoroth

The Platform Plane, co-created by Zühlke and LGT, is redefining platform engineering with its innovative approach to managing cloud-native environments. But there’s a big question: Should it go open source? In this talk, I share the story behind the Platform Plane, how it was conceived, how it has evolved, and the challenges it solves. I also give a live demo, showcasing its powerful features, from GitOps-based deployments and security automation to FinOps tracking and multi-cloud support. Following the demo, we dive into a thought-provoking discussion with the audience: 💡 Should we open-source it? ⚖️ What are the benefits and risks? 📢 How can we convince management to support this move? Now, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

In this insightful presentation from the DevOpsDays Global Organiser Summit 2024 in Antwerp on October 3rd, 2024, Nadine and Dirk share our journey of scaling and downscaling DevOpsDays Zürich. Originally a compact, highly engaging event, the conference expanded to host 500 attendees, which brought significant challenges. We as organizers faced increased workloads, sponsor demands, and pressure from ticket sales—all of which affected the event's overall quality. Through a careful trade-off analysis, our team made the strategic decision to downscale the event back to 250 participants to preserve its core values and focus on quality. In this talk, we explore the lessons learned from both scaling up and down, and how they managed community expectations, maintained event quality, and ensured that the essence of DevOpsDays remained intact. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ L I N K S 🔗▬▬▬▬▬▬ Nadine Broghammer ➤https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadinebroghammer/ Dirk Lehmann ➤https://www.linkedin.com/in/dirk-lehmann-7712bb125/ DevOpsDays Zürich: ➤https://www.devopsdays.ch/ DevOpsDays Global Organiser Summit: ➤https://devopsdays.org/events/2024-organiser-summit/welcome/ Session: ➤https://devopsdays.org/events/2024-organiser-summit/program/devopsdays-z%c3%bcrich--bigger-is-not-always-better ▬▬▬▬▬▬ S U B S C R I B E 🔔 ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ╔═╦╗╔╦╗╔═╦═╦╦╦╦╗╔═╗ ║╚╣║║║╚╣╚╣╔╣╔╣║╚╣═╣ ╠╗║╚╝║║╠╗║╚╣║║║║║═╣ ╚═╩══╩═╩═╩═╩╝╚╩═╩═╝ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXvlc9x4zlv5DEqbby55Ivg?sub_confirmation=1 ▬▬▬▬▬▬ Connect with me 👋 ▬▬▬▬▬▬ LINKEDIN ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/romanoroth/ TWITTER ► https://twitter.com/RomanoRoth INSTAGRAM ► https://www.instagram.com/romanoroth/ FACEBOOK ►https://www.facebook.com/romanoroth/ MEETUP ► https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/DevOps-Meetup-Zurich/ CONFERNCE ►https://www.devopsdays.ch/ HOMEPAGE ► https://www.romanoroth.com/ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ P L A Y L I S T S ▶️ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ Modern Software Engineering https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrsbMazVPK_rb56rZQr2fyBGR3cyanZpX DevOps https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrsbMazVPK_ro3fn1G-3Ui2mBPHxOD9kF GitLab: Build a DevSecOps Pipeline https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrsbMazVPK_qhf3ahA_zRPlwBaGGhSu2P #devsecops #devops #romanoroth #DevOpsDays
