🚨 New Episode: Building Platforms with Kaspar, this time with our friends at Cortex, Amazon Web Services (AWS), GitHub, Cursor, Datadog, Humanitec and more. I must say I underestimated how much effort it is to build and demo massive end to end IDPs but it's also totally worth it. In this episode I have a couple first times: I focus on Golden paths for Platform Engineers and I orchestrate VMs (!) which is something new after years of Kubernetes :); In this episode We explore: ✅ Detecting a policy violation (RDS overprovisioning) using Cortex ✅ Auto-remediating it in the background using Humanitec's Orchestrator ✅ Adding new capabilities to your platform (S3 support) without involving developers ✅ Using Humanitec Orchestrator with ECS runners to deploy infra ✅ Cortex scorecards, workflows, and natural language prompts (MCP server!) ✅ Claude Code + Cursor for AI-powered engineering This is the platform engineer’s perspective: how to codify golden paths, standardize infrastructure, and enable developer freedom without chaos. 🎥 Full episode in the comments 👀 Source code coming soon (this is actually exciting, we are packaging most of this as Terraform so you can replicate it! 💬 Questions, feedback, or your own platform story?

So cool to see this come together, Kaspar! This is such a great example of how powerful golden paths can be in action.
Love seeing this come together — such an awesome showcase of how Cortex and Humanitec complement each other to turn platform standards into real, measurable impact. Excited for what’s next! 🚀
no better platform strategy out there than Cortex + Humanitec
