#14: How Sonos Mastered Spot: Karpenter GA, KubeCon & More
Episode 1
Thursday, 7 November, 2024

Karpenter has achieved GA and is disrupted the autoscaling game, with data pointing to accelerated adoption. Today, Josh Cypher, DevOps leader at Sonos, joins us to talk about some unexpected byproducts of adopting Karpenter at Sonos. Josh dives into his favorite features and efficiency gains, from node consolidation to better disruption controls. The public cloud bill is a massive operational expense for tech organizations, yet tracking the success of optimization efforts often frustrates engineers. Josh and James explore these challenges and how to address them effectively. As big-time Spot adopters, Sonos has unlocked impressive savings (50%?!) by focusing on high-impact, low-overhead strategies. Josh explains how visibility brought them quick wins and paved the way for further optimization across Sonos’s infrastructure. Plus, Josh and James preview what they’re looking forward to at KubeCon, including key conversations on Kubernetes, AI, and cloud sustainability.
