OM DENNE EPISODE
In-flight entertainment now runs on a cloud. Not the one on the ground, a cloud inside the aircraft. A 300-watt onboard data center running Kubernetes, managed databases and observability, built to survive vibration, fire and electromagnetic interference. Then AI agents on top so airlines can talk to their fleet.
Romain sits down with Frédéric Faria, Chief Technology and Engineering Officer, and Yann Nicolas, Chief Data and AI Officer, at Thales In-Flight Experience, to unpack FlytEDGE, the cloud-native in-flight entertainment platform.
Key topics covered: • Why most aircraft still get content by USB drive, and how connectivity changes that • Designing an aviation-grade onboard data center: about 100 TB of storage in a 300 W budget • Vanilla Kubernetes, Helm and GitOps for updates and rollbacks in flight • An open onboard SDK with REST APIs for flight data (position, speed, origin, destination) • Multi-tenancy, data minimization and forensic watermarking for studio content • Global delivery with Amazon CloudFront and caching once per aircraft • A conversational ops agent built with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, AgentCore Gateway and Strands Agents • Rolling out Kiro to hundreds of engineers, beyond software teams

John Sexton and Aaron Tummon from Genesys join the show to share hard-won lessons from building and operating Cloud Copilot — an agentic AI layer serving 2 million users across 21+ AWS regions. Genesys powers customer experience for brands like Virgin Atlantic, Vodafone, and HSBC, and their copilot…
Most MCP tools today return text. But what if your agent could render a chart, a form, or a full dashboard right inside the chat? That's what MCP apps do — and they're already live on ChatGPT, Claude, and Amazon Quick. Romain sits down with Luigi Pederzani, co-founder of Manufact (the company behin…
Brenn reached out via LinkedIn to share his experience with AI-driven software development and his new book, The Delivery Gap. Romain read a copy during a business trip and found it deeply aligned with how he guides customers through their AI transformation — and discovered a few new angles worth e…
Davide de Sio built KiroGraph as a personal side project to stop his AI agent from burning through credits just searching files. It turned into a community-driven, open-source MCP server that gives Kiro (and other AI agents) a semantic map of your codebase — reducing token usage by up to 80%. We di…
Tipu Qureshi — Senior Principal Engineer at AWS — joins the show fresh from the AWS Summit NYC 2026 announcements to break down how DevOps Agent is changing the way teams handle operations and release management. After 14 years across EC2, Elastic Load Balancing, AWS Support, and Networking, Tipu m…
