Building Git infrastructure for agent-scale development

Writes are accelerating, and this growth can add stress to systems all repos depend on. Here's our approach to building architecture that can scale.

Published By Brian Celenza · 1 min read

Every day on GitHub, millions of developers build the products their customers rely on, contribute to open source, and pursue personal projects. GitHub’s architecture has changed steadily over the years to support that work and the growing demands of the developers and organizations who depend on it.

Agentic software development is driving the next architectural shift. With developers and agents working concurrently in repositories that receive millions of commits a day, these workloads demand a different Git architecture. We’re rebuilding GitHub’s Git infrastructure to support them. This post explores the demands shaping that work and the design principles behind it.

Today’s highest-volume workloads show the scale we’re building for.

This is an excerpt. The full article is published by GitHub Blog.

Kubernetes v1.36: In-Place Vertical Scaling for Pod-Level Resources Graduates to Beta

Following the graduation of Pod-Level Resources to Beta in v1.34 and the General Availability (GA) of In-Place Pod Vertical Scaling in v1.35, the Kubernetes community is thrilled to announce that In-Place Pod-Level Resources Vertical Scaling has graduated to Beta in v1.36! This feature is now enabled by default via the InPlacePodLevelResourcesVerticalScaling feature gate. It allows users to update the aggregate Pod resource budget (.spec.resources) for a running Pod, often without requiring a container restart.

Kubernetes v1.36: Pod-Level Resource Managers (Alpha)

Kubernetes v1.36 introduces Pod-Level Resource Managers as an alpha feature, bringing a more flexible and powerful resource management model to performance-sensitive workloads. This enhancement extends the kubelet's Topology, CPU, and Memory Managers to support pod-level resource specifications (.spec.resources), evolving them from a strictly per-container allocation model to a pod-centric one. Why do we need pod-level resource managers?When running performance-critical workloads such as machine learning (ML) training, high-frequency trading applications, or low-latency databases, you often need exclusive, NUMA-aligned resources for your primary application containers to ensure predictable performance.

Kubernetes v1.36: Admission Policies That Can't Be Deleted

If you've ever tried to enforce a security policy across a fleet of Kubernetes clusters, you've probably run into a frustrating chicken-and-egg problem. Your admission policies are API objects, which means they don't exist until someone creates them, and they can be deleted by anyone with the right permissions. There's always a window during cluster bootstrap where your policies aren't active yet, and there's no way to prevent a privileged user from removing them.
