  Good to know, thank you. What I do love about Monzo is their approach to development - they blog everything, even the outages. Good to see the process involved in making a new bank from scratch. I'm keeping the account as a scratch account but have already moved the direct debits from my old Halifax account to Starling.

    Agreed. Watching them discuss in detail in their blog about how they use Kubernetes has been really interesting.
    • sofaofthedamned 9y ago
      Yeah. As somebody who was learning Kubernetes whilst using it to deploy a data science platform it was very useful to see the failure cases :D

    Monzo's head of engineering will be keynoting at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon in Copenhagen next week, and talking about past outages: https://kccnceu18.sched.com/event/Dsan/keynote-anatomy-of-a-production-kubernetes-outage-oliver-beattie-head-of-engineering-monzo-bank https://kccnceu18.sched.com/event/Dsan/keynote-anatomy-of-a-...

      That sounds great. Gutted I won't be there, hope it's recorded!

        Yes, we'll have it on the CNCF YouTube channel a few days later. https://www.youtube.com/c/cloudnativefdn https://www.youtube.com/c/cloudnativefdn
