This week the StatusCake team are going to be at the following events. Get in touch by email us or live chat on the StatusCake website if you’d like to meet us.
Our dev ops team will be at the Influx Roadshow in Amsterdam this Wednesday. The team are looking forward to meeting other developers who use InfluxDB, the time series database platform. The focus will be looking at how other Influx customers use the database, taking a look at InfluxDB’s new cloud offering, as well as their product roadmap.
Our CEO James Barnes will be at Big Data LDN talking with and learning from leading data and analytics experts and teams about what “big data” really means in practice, what an effective customer focused data-driven strategy might look like, and how to deliver that vision.
James will also be at Twilio’s Engage conference with Mario Giraldo, head of StatusCake Partners on Thursday afternoon where the focus is not only on looking at the way in which we engage and communicate with our own customers through using products and technologies similar to Twilio’s, but also how we can build out our own innovative customer engagement strategies and experiences using APIs.
Our head of tech Hemm Kerrai will be at the New Age of DevOps events by Women in DevOps and hosted by Conde Nast.
The event will feature a panel includes: Fudma Mohammed, software engineer at Conde Nast; Susie Colman, senior software engineer at BBC; Gabrielle Anderson, senior site reliability engineer at Google; and Anna Szyoyi, engineering manager at Improbable.
Hemm Kerrai will be attending the GDG DevFest event in London this coming Saturday. Hosted by Google, and King College London Tech Society the Devfest is a multrack event looking at everything from emerging technologies, mobile, and cloud and machine learning.
If you’d like to meet the team and arrange a meeting at any of these events please email us.

3 min read The allure of OpenClaw is undeniable. You deploy a highly autonomous, self-hosted AI agent, give it access to your repositories and inboxes, and watch it reason through complex workflows while you sleep. It is the dream of the ultimate 10x developer tool realized. But as any veteran DevOps engineer will tell you: running an LLM-backed
7 min read There are cloud outages, and then there are us-east-1 outages. That distinction matters because failures in AWS’s Northern Virginia region rarely feel like ordinary regional incidents. They tend instead to expose something larger and more uncomfortable: too much of the modern internet still behaves as though one place is an acceptable concentration point for infrastructure,
7 min read Artificial intelligence is making software easier to produce. That much is already obvious. Code that once took hours to scaffold can now be drafted in minutes. Boilerplate, integration logic, tests, refactors and small internal tools can be generated with startling speed. In some cases, even substantial pieces of implementation can be assembled quickly enough to
10 min read Whilst AI has compressed the visible stages of software delivery; requirements, validation, review and release discipline have not disappeared. They have been pushed into automation, runtime and governance. The real risk is not that the lifecycle is dead, but that organisations start acting as if accountability died with it. There is a now-familiar story about
4 min read How AI Is Shifting Software Engineering’s Primary Constraint For most of the history of software engineering, the primary constraint was production. Code was expensive, skilled engineers were scarce, and shipping features required concentrated human effort. Velocity was limited by how fast people could reason, implement, test, and deploy. That constraint shaped everything from team size,
5 min read Autonomous Code, Trust Boundaries, and Why Governance Now Matters More Than Ever In Part 1, we looked at how AI has reduced the cost of building monitoring tools. Then in Part 2, we explored the operational and economic burden of owning them. Now we need to talk about something deeper. Because the real shift isn’t
