Building an Internal Developer Platform doesn't have to be a months-long project. Join us for a practical walkthrough where we'll spin up a fully functional platform from zero to production-ready in under 30 minutes. We're using Konstruct's Hosted Control Plane to show you exactly how fast modern IDP tooling can be. You'll watch as we deploy a team's first cluster, showcase the essentials that actually matter, and explore how this foundation becomes the backbone of developer productivity at scale.

Proprietary tech. Vendor lock-in. Pricing you can't predict. The hyperscaler model has defined cloud computing for years. Civo was built to change that. Civo CEO Mark Boost sets out the vision, a multi-cloud and hybrid cloud future built on open standards, full cloud parity, and genuine user choice. Public cloud, private cloud, and AI infrastructure that gives you total control over your data, your infrastructure, and your spend.

Cloud first was gospel for a decade. But the calculus has changed, and organisations are asking harder questions about where their workloads actually belong. In this clip, Civo Product Director Russ Smith breaks down the four forces that have converged to shift the default: spiralling bills that are no longer defensible at scale, the Broadcom acquisition that detonated VMware pricing overnight, sovereignty becoming a boardroom procurement requirement, and AI making new hardware brutally expensive.

Highly classified environment. Strict compliance requirements. Data that can't leave the network. But still a real need for the competitive advantage AI delivers. Civo Director of Enterprise Cloud Solutions John Dietz addresses exactly that challenge and how Konstruct makes it possible to run Kubernetes, deploy your own models, and point Claude Code at your own internal private servers instead of public APIs.

For years, "move everything to the cloud" was the default. But the economics have shifted. Join Russell Smith to explore why enterprises are reconsidering their cloud strategies, and how modern private cloud platforms are changing the game. We'll cover the real costs of public cloud lock-in, achieving feature parity without the price premium, and how to navigate today's hardware constraints, especially if you've got existing infrastructure assets that can still deliver value.
