MetalBear recaps their experience at ContainerDays London 2026, where they had a booth and delivered a talk. Key themes included the persistent friction in Kubernetes-based dev loops (especially for teams relying on cloud-only dependencies like GCP service accounts or large ML models), the contrast between the measured DevOps crowd and the more optimistic MCPConference attendees co-located at the same venue, and notable talks from Kelsey Hightower on fundamentals, Nigel Douglas on CVE prioritization, and others on platform engineering and identity-based security. The author's own talk used an RPG narrative to explore AI-augmented workflows and validation bottlenecks.
