Attending the @awscloud.bsky.social Summit in Paris today ? If so, come and listen at 16:45 to @payfiteng.bsky.social journey on how we transitioned from a pure EC2/Kubernetes infrastructure to mostly managed (and serverless) services ! We may even have taken the Kaamelott theme a bit too far...
Go go @nick-tune.me @maxsc.bsky.social - now talking about aligning on ubiquitous language and breakthrough at @touraine.tech about aligning on ubiquitous language and breakthrough! Come & discover how PayFit is finally making sense of terms like employee, collaborator, person, individual or user
Missed our talk today at @touraine.tech about how we reduced @payfiteng.bsky.social AWS bill by 40% in 3 years, with more business and while staying on AWS? While waiting for the recording, here's the content (in 🇫🇷) I shared: s.42l.fr/touraine-tec... See you tomorrow, I'll talk about Diátaxis!
For this @touraine.tech 2026 edition, PayFiters are presenting as many as 3 talks! Today: - @horgix.fr & Maxime Guillet at 15:45 about AWS costs reduction Tomorrow: - @horgix.fr at 12:10 about Diátaxis for doc - @nick-tune.me & @maxsc.bsky.social at 13:30 about aligning on ubiquitous language
Missed my talk today at @breizhcamp.org about Diátaxis applied to platform documentation (theory + experience feedback from @payfiteng.bsky.social) ? While waiting for the recording, here's the content (in 🇫🇷) I presented: s.42l.fr/breizhcamp20... 25min was short, so shoot questions here on Bsky 🙂
Interested to learn about Diátaxis (diataxis.fr) and how we applied it to our internal developer platform's doc (and more) at @payfiteng.bsky.social ? I'll be presenting it this afternoon at @breizhcamp.org at 17:35 in Amphi E, and I'll keep you awake for the last talk of the day !
Diátaxis
Diátaxis is a widely-adopted, pragmatic and systematic approach to thinking about and creating documentation.

Missed our (@horgix.fr @kobaye.bsky.social @luski.bsky.social) 3 hours deep-dive talk today at @devoxx.fr about incidents management from 0 to Hero, including our very own PayFit real life feedback? While waiting for the recording, here is the content (in 🇫🇷) I presented: s.42l.fr/devoxx-fr-20...

Day 2 of @devoxx.fr ! You want to have fun with an incident severity wheel and discover how the hell we were able to fit a "poulposaure" in our 3 hours-long talk about incident management (& learn from @payfiteng.bsky.social XP) ? Come and see us in at 13:30 ☺️ → mobile.devoxx.com/events/devox...
What an absolutely packed room for Alexandre Pineau (PayFit) and Charline Boulie (AWS) at the #AWS #Summit Paris for their talk about @payfiteng.bsky.social's "Copilot" AI feature! Talking about our RAG implementation leveraging AWS Bedrock to provide meaningful answers to customers 🚀
What a coincidence that the first talk I attend at #KubeCon #CloudNativeCon is by @hazelweakly.me about hiring platform engineers, given the number of interviews I've done for @payfiteng.bsky.social lately 😄 Lots of great things to keep in mind! See careers.payfit.com/jobs/5478335... by the way ;)
Here we go for the greatest time of the year since 2018: the #KubeCon + #CloudNativeCon Europe, happening in London for this 2025 edition! I'll live share here during 4 days Again attending with colleagues thanks to @payfiteng.bsky.social 🙂 Come say Hi if you cross our path - and we're hiring btw 😉
🚀 Just published: "Taming the Data Fetching Beast" A deep dive into how we solved type safety challenges @payfiteng.bsky.social using Runtime validation with Zod Real solutions for real problems. No perfect answers, just practical ones. Check it out here: beaussan.io/blog/data-fe...

Ooooohh YES, I'm super honored of having been selected to present a Deep Dive (3 hours!) about incident management at @devoxxfr.bsky.social this year - along with my dear colleagues @kobaye.bsky.social & Luc Chmielowski as co-speakers! 🎉 We'll be able to share soooo many things in that format ☺️
Happened a few months back, but never shared it here on Bsky: is the recording of our talk with Laurentiu Capatina about MongoDB at @payfiteng.bsky.social , sharing how we progressively got away from our monolithic hell of a shared wonky self-hosted cluster → youtu.be/PPQimiViVSA

Let's go for the Breizhcamp 2024 conference in Rennes, starting today and featuring 3 speakers from PayFit : Caroline Becker + @horgix.bsky.social talking about MongoDB & how to get away from a monolithic hell, and Martin Bahier talking about OBS ! May the force be with them 🚀
Yesterday we had the pleasure to host the MongoDB Paris meetup at our PayFit office, featuring great talks from our engineers (@horgix.bsky.social & Laurentiu Capatina) and Han Héloir from MongoDB See you again at Breizhcamp & KanDDDinsky, and reach out if you want to host meetups with us!
In a week from now, on Tuesday 4th June, PayFit will have the pleasure to host the MongoDB Paris meetup! Including a talk sharing our own experience and plans with MongoDB at PayFit, by @horgix.bsky.social and Laurentiu Capatina 🎉 See www.meetup.com/paris-mongod... for more and to signup for it!
"Who in the audience runs the Kubernetes cluster autoscaler?" Happy I didn't have to raise a hand with colleagues in the room as we already switched to Karpenter at @payfiteng.bsky.social ! These specs definitely ring a bell 😉 Let's see how this leads to Argo Workflows! #KubeCon #CloudNativeCon
"The path toward figuring the right metadata and its value usually involve massive context changes across multiple tools. Your catalog won't be a good catalog if your engineers stride away from updating it because it's painful" Can relate with this Backstage experience at @payfiteng.bsky.social !
