What a night at The Upside Down Amsterdam yesterday. A packed room, a great panel discussion on running Kubernetes at enterprise scale in the age of AI, food, drinks, and The Upside Down experience to close it out.

Thank you to everyone who made it.

Platform v4.8 + vCluster v0.33 are live!
Introducing vMetal - PXE boot bare metal servers and provision them as managed bare metal machines or attach them to Kubernetes clusters as managed nodes. Here's what else shipped👇️

[Kubernetes with Naveen 🇮🇳 @NaveenS16]

Meet vind (#vCluster in #Docker), a massive leap forward for local #Kubernetes development. It gives you automatic load balancers, a built-in UI, native sleep/wake functionality, and even the ability to attach real cloud VMs to your local cluster.

@loft_sh that's a solid move free tier with platform features beats the usual demo trap where you hit a paywall the moment you build something gpu support and etcd included means ur not starting fromm scratch when you decide to scale it up

Heroku just announced it’s shifting to “sustaining engineering” mode (Feb 6, 2026). Here’s the simple breakdown for devs:
What it actually means:
• No new features ever again.
• Focus only on keeping things stable, secure, reliable, and supported.
• Current users (paying via dashboard/credit card): Nothing changes — same pricing, billing, apps, add-ons, pipelines, teams. Still production-ready.
• New Enterprise contracts: Stopped. Existing ones can renew as usual.
• Why? Salesforce is pouring resources into AI/enterprise stuff instead.
In plain English: Maintenance mode. The golden era of “git push heroku main” magic is officially over — no more innovation, just keeping the lights on (for now).
Many devs see this as the slow sunset/ “RIP Heroku” moment. The platform that made deploying dead simple for years (especially Rails/Node hobby → prod) has been fading since the free tier died in 2022, outages, and costs.
Why everyone’s suddenly posting alternatives: People still running side projects/startups on Heroku are like: “Time to migrate before bitrot sets in or scaling gets weird.”
Top alternatives getting buzz right now:
• Render — Closest “spiritual successor” vibe: super easy deploys, great Postgres, looks/works a lot like old Heroku.
• Railway — Beginner-friendly, generous credits, fast setup for full-stack apps.
• https://t.co/7RMklxZslV — Awesome for global/low-latency apps, containers without heavy Kubernetes pain.
• Others: Vercel (frontend-heavy), DigitalOcean App Platform, Northflank, or even self-host on cheap VMs with Dokku.
If you’re on Heroku: No panic today, but start planning that migration. The “innovator’s dilemma” struck — Salesforce bet big on AI over keeping the dev darling alive.

What are you switching to? #Heroku #PaaS #DevOps

150 gihub stars on the vind repo!
people who have used kubernetes in docker locally have started replacing it with vind
as it gives you kubernetes cluster, publically accessible UI with which you can access your homelab from outside, adding EC2 nodes to local cluster, adding gpu to clusters, sleeping and waking up the cluster, loadbalancer working out of the box!
its cool, free, open source(vind code is in vcluster repo) and solves the purpose of local kubernetes cluster.
check out if you haven’t already.

Enterprises are building private GPU clouds. Most fail at 30% utilization and never see ROI.
Platform engineering is how you hit 70%.
Our guide covers the path: GPU economics to Kubernetes platforms that work.
