You might have been wondering why my publishing cadence has shifted back to the initial bi-weekly schedule instead of the weekly posts you’re used to. There are multiple reasons, the main one being that I’m working hard on Anzu, the new company I’m founding. As with all

Every day, someone out there has a new idea worth looking into. Maybe it’s a problem they came across at work, or maybe it’s an issue a friend told them about. Now, you might be thinking more people are facing the same problem and making the solution available

In last week’s post, I wrote about how Anzu Services help engineering teams bridge the gap between the cloud and their codebase by leveraging code generation and the provider ecosystem to connect resources to services within seconds. This week, I’ll focus on Anzu Dev Environments: Developing software locally

At Anzu, our mission is to help teams move faster, happier. We want to help make the work of building and shipping services fade into the background, so you can focus on building instead. One of the big pillars to achieving this mission is to reduce the effort associated with

Building and maintaining software and web services has become increasingly complex in the last few years. Integration work across service and cloud providers, delivering commodity features, and ensuring compliance with standards such as SOC II and ISO 27001 slows teams down with busy work and little leverage.
