From VR to Flat Screens: Bridging the Input and Immersion Gap

Dany Lepage discusses the architectural journey of porting a hit VR title to seven non-VR platforms. He explains how his team solved the challenges of cross-progression, diverse input paradigms, and maintaining release velocity across Steam, iOS, and PlayStation. Beyond the tech, he shares candid lessons on the "product fit" gap when translating immersive social presence to 2D screens.

Context is the Key to the Agentic Architecture Revolution: A Conversation with Baruch Sadogursky

Michael Stiefel spoke to Baruch Sadogursky about software architecture in the age of agentic AI. LLM can function, albeit stochastically, as reasoning machines capable of interpreting human ambiguity. With the appropriate rigorous context artifacts to control the LLM’s reasoning, software specifications can become the source of truth, while the code becomes a disposable intermediate language.

Building a Secure MCP Server on AWS for a Million-Company B2B Platform

We wanted to expose a B2B intelligence platform built on more than one million company profiles to an LLM client through an MCP server so a user can ask “find SaaS companies in Germany with 50-200 employees” and receive results through the LLM client. The engineering problem was: How do you make that workflow useful without creating an unsafe bridge between an LLM and production data?

Product Thinking for Cloud Native Engineers

Stéphane Di Cesare and Cat Morris share how engineers can move from being a "cost center" to a value driver using product discovery. They explain the "Double Diamond" framework and why identifying user problems must precede building solutions. Learn to choose the right metrics, build customer empathy through shadowing, and use business context to maximize the impact of your technical work.

Kernel-Level Ground Truth: Why eBPF is Replacing User-Space Agents for Security Observability

eBPF is emerging as a preferred method for security observability over traditional user-space agents. By attaching probes directly to the Linux kernel's syscall interface, it provides consistent visibility even during container-level compromises. eBPF reduces security-related CPU consumption and limits data volume by performing filtering at the kernel level, enhancing operational efficiency.
