About

I'm Ioannis Moustakis, a Lead Solutions Architect at AWS; everything on this site is written in a personal capacity and represents nobody's views but mine.
I write about infrastructure for the people who run it. Alongside the original posts here, my work has been published on the official AWS blogs and by Spacelift, Gruntwork, StackGuardian and Qodo. I write mostly technical pieces on cloud infrastructure & platform engineering, and lately, how we can integrate them with AI tooling and agents.
My thesis on AI and agents for infrastructure and platform engineering: The speed gains from AI and agentic tooling are undeniable. The problem is that we have been fighting for years to bring determinism and stability to infrastructure, platforms, and operations, and these tools introduce non-deterministic behavior. Looking to explore how we can leverage agentic AI for infrastructure workflows safely, without losing control. If that sounds interesting, that's what the newsletter covers, one email every two weeks.
