It's been 3 weeks since we launched the first version of Modelplane. Today we're following up with v0.2 with important new capabilities and new provisioners. We're moving fast and bulding in the open towards an exciting future. Join us.

Modelplane@modelplaneai.bsky.social

Modelplane v0.2 is out. Two new providers (Nebius, @microsoft.com Azure AKS), weighted routing for canarying model versions, and cluster taints to reserve or drain capacity. The clusters you own, one pool. Building in the open. → modelplane.ai/blog/modelplane-v0-2

Google’s new report shows AI only works when your platform is strong. That’s why we built @crossplane.io and @upbound.io : declarative APIs for apps, platforms, and infra. Agentic AI depends on this. If your platform isn’t ready, your AI won’t be either. services.google.com/fh/files/mis...

The future of infrastructure is agent-driven. Autonomous AI needs declarative intent, reliable APIs, and continuous convergence. That’s the foundation of the Intelligent Control Plane. upbound.io/intelligent-...

Kubernetes is the sum of all the shell scripts, and practices, system administrators have cobbled together over time, presented as a single system behind a declarative set of APIs.

6/ Crossplane is now trusted by thousands of organizations — from Fortune 10 to Global 2000 enterprises, global banks, and hyperscalers — to power production control planes.

7/ As AI and agentic systems emerge, declarative control becomes essential. Intelligent systems need clear APIs that express intent and continuously converge toward desired state.

Gearing up for a big release 🚀

The Crossplane v2 release candidate is available for installation and testing now in your non-production clusters! github.com/crossplane/c... We invite you to try this build and report any issues and questions. Let's work together towards a polished and high quality release for early next week!

@bassam.tabbara.com

Congrats to the team at Coreweave on the IPO today. What I’m most intrigued by is that it represents the first scaled cloud provider to fully commit to #Kubernetes as the foundation of the platform itself. Contemporary cloud providers assume VMs as IaaS as the primitives, CW assumes Kubernetes.
