<p>We conclude our two-part conversation with Weaveworks co-founder <a href="https://twitter.com/monadic">Alexis Richardson</a>, picking up when the company received Series A investment in December 2014. Since then, they built projects like <a href="https://www.weave.works/oss/scope/">Scope</a>, <a href="https://cortexmetrics.io/">Cortex</a> and <a href="https://fluxcd.io/">Flux</a> as well as SaaS offerings based on them. We also look at Alexis’s role in the founding of the CNCF.</p> <p>Please be sure to listen to <a href="https://kubernetespodcast.com/episode/144-weaveworks-part-1/">the first part</a> before this one!</p> <p>Do you have something cool to share?
