Some of our community members will be at IndiaFOSS this weekend!
Huge thanks to @fossunited for supporting the Rust India Conf diversity grants in April, and to Shivani for helping drive this initiative.
Looking forward to meeting FOSS contributors and maintainers in Bengaluru!

A grant can get someone into the room. What helps them stay involved?
At @IndiaFOSS this weekend, Rootconf community members @Varunihk and Suchitra Shankar are hosting “Going beyond grants”, a BOF on participation and sponsorship for women and LGBTQIA+ people in FOSS.

Thank you to @FOSSUnited and @hackerrank for supporting the programme in June.
That experience is informing the next conversation. We welcome conversations with organisations interested in supporting this work across the year.

A ClickHouse proposal for Rootconf 2026 asks why the schema that read 168× more rows won.
Have results that challenged your assumptions? Tell us what you tested, what surprised you and what changed.

From 4,000 to 8,000 builds a day. Same hardware.
At Rootconf 2025, Nikhil Kumar explained how separating short, frequent pipelines from longer jobs helped @flipkart_tech Flow scale. @purple_term

A few moments from yesterday's workshop on platform engineering for production agents.
@_dforce took participants from agent concepts to hands-on work with observability, cost, security and evals.
Thanks to Giri, @aerospikedb @sidntrivedi and everyone who joined!

Prompts are the easy part.
The real challenge with AI agents begins in production: observability, isolation, access control, cost guardrails, rollback and recovery.
This is where AI starts looking a lot like a platform engineering problem.
Join us tomorrow for a hands-on workshop on how to operate agents reliably in production!
AI agents in production need more than prompts.
They need observability, access controls, cost limits, isolation, rollback, and recovery.
Join Rootconf’s hands-on workshop this Saturday: Platform Engineering for Production Agents by @_dforce
