Developers and platform teams both want Kubernetes self-service. They disagree on who owns it.
What do developers want? Kubernetes environments when they need them. What do they not want? Those environments after a week The post Developers and…
Agents operate, humans govern: Scale your operations and reduce toil with Azure SRE Agent
What if engineers could spend their time building and optimizing systems rather than maintaining them? It’s 3 a.m., and the The post Agents op…
It passed CI. It passed your evals. The customer still got the wrong answer.
A diff is not evidence. It’s a statement of intent. The tests passed. The review’s done. The change is live. The post It passed CI. It p…
The AI-native SDLC won’t be one process
Anthropic recently published its AI-Native SDLC Playbook. Its central claim is that “code is no longer the bottleneck.” When agents The…
AI floods security teams with flaws — business context sets priorities
A security researcher testing a 300-person B2B company with a global footprint discovered an internet-exposed database with weak authentication duri…
How to find failures without drowning in tracing data
A metrics dashboard can tell you a system’s health with ease. A log can help you understand a discrete failure. The post How to find failures…
Observability has a data problem. AI is about to make it worse.
Observability is entering a new phase now that OpenTelemetry has standardized instrumentation for data collection. Unfortunately, the observability…
How telemetry pipelines keep AI agent costs under control
As enterprises move from experimenting with AI to running autonomous agents in production, an infrastructure problem is emerging: rising telemetry T…
Kubernetes at the edge has hit a wall. Fleet management is the way through.
