Longer-form technical conversations for people who build and run systems, not just use them. Continuous testing, the automation pyramid, SRE error budgets, and what keeps one failing service from taking everything else down. Produced by Kanraul Media Production. Free to stream or download.
A separate series from our cybersecurity podcast — different audience, its own feed. Pair these with the Cloud & DevOps videos and the Practitioner's Reference.
How a small failure in one service becomes an outage across many — and the practices that contain it. Timeouts, retries that don't amplify the problem, circuit breakers, and designing a system that degrades gracefully instead of collapsing all at once.
What an error budget actually is, and how it turns the argument about shipping speed versus reliability from a matter of opinion into arithmetic. Where that budget meets the deployment pipeline, and what it means to spend it deliberately.
A deeper second pass at the pyramid — how to actually structure a test suite in a modern codebase, layer by layer. A companion to Episode 2 rather than a repeat of it: same shape, more blueprint.
The long conversation on continuous testing — where tests belong in a delivery pipeline, and why the shape of a test suite decides whether that pipeline stays useful or becomes something people quietly route around. Many fast checks at the bottom, few slow ones at the top, and what goes wrong when it's upside down.
Where the series starts: why teams stop depending on someone remembering to test, and let the pipeline catch regressions instead. The case for automated checks — and an honest look at what they cover and what they quietly miss.
