Architecture, explained from the field
I’m Sourabh, a solutions architect exploring the systems behind Kubernetes, private cloud, AI and automation. This is where I unpack how they work, where they fit, and the decisions that matter.
Learning Loops
Structured tutorials that turn complex technology into concepts you can understand, compare, test, and use in architecture decisions.
Featured Learning Loop
VKS explained for the Kubernetes world. Start from concepts you already know in upstream Kubernetes, OpenShift, or public cloud, then explore how VKS implements them on VCF.
VKS Learning Loop
From infrastructure foundations to enterprise use cases.
Repeatable operations, APIs, pipelines, and practical patterns.
A flexible home for the next subject worth unpacking.
Field Notes
Short, standalone perspectives on Kubernetes, private AI, VCF, automation, and architecture. The first issue is now ready.
Inside every Learning Loop
Each tutorial closes the loop with a knowledge check and an applied architecture question. Here is a small preview from the VKS loop.

Built in public, one week at a time
The site will grow deliberately: one researched field note each week, with deeper Learning Loops developed alongside them.
