I'm Samir Akarioh, developer advocate at Scalingo. I work on cloud platforms and DevOps tools with a simple goal: to make developers' lives easier and systems more reliable. I enjoy sharing concrete feedback, talking about automation and best practices, and engaging with the tech community on pragmatic, field-oriented topics.

Running production systems without Kubernetes

Kubernetes is often the default choice for running applications in production, even when its complexity does not match the team's actual needs. Many teams adopt it to solve problems that could be addressed with simpler approaches.

In this presentation, we will revisit what “production-ready” really means and show how reliability, scalability, security, and observability can be achieved without Kubernetes. Drawing on concrete experience operating a PaaS like Scalingo, we will explore how platform-level abstractions can reduce operational overhead while providing production guarantees.

Securing MCP: turning LLM tools into production-grade systems

MCP makes it easy to connect LLMs to databases, APIs, ... . But once an LLM can act on real infrastructure, it becomes part of a distributed system and most MCP demos stop exactly where security should start.

In this talk, I will explain why MCP significantly increases the attack surface of LLM-based applications and why prompt-level protections are not sufficient. We will review common security pitfalls such as over-privileged tools and implicit trust between MCP servers.

Finally, the talk will focus on concrete patterns to design and operate a secure MCP setup, helping you move from demos to real-world.
