I Benchmarked EBS vs. S3 Express So You Don't Have To - Here's What I Found

I benchmarked EBS and S3 Express One Zone across EC2 and EKS setups to settle a question we kept hearing from customers: “What’s the best temp storage for ML pipelines?” The short answer: Here’s the full story and why it matters to your ML pipelines.

AI Eliminates Pollution Risk: Oxford's Digital Contrast, Powered by Civo.

The future of medicine is here: Oxford's digital contrast AI is powered by Civo! Watch as Regent Lee, Professor at the University of Oxford and moonshot engineer, reveals a revolutionary solution to healthcare’s biggest hidden problem. Radiology currently accounts for 1% of global carbon emissions, with a single PET CT scan generating up to 60 kg of carbon, while forcing patients to endure long waits and chemical injections. Old habits cause slow systems.

The AI Knowledge Agent: Making Internal Developer Portals Smarter

AI is generating more code than ever, but delivery hasn’t kept pace. The Harness IDP Knowledge Agent helps teams close that gap by turning their internal developer portal into an intelligent platform for faster, safer software delivery. Joining a new engineering team can be exciting, but it can also be overwhelming. You spend the first few days figuring out what each service does, where documentation lives, and who owns what.

SharePoint Storage Limit Warning

When your Microsoft 365 tenant reaches the SharePoint storage limit, the impact is immediate. File uploads start failing, Teams sites stop provisioning, indexing slows down, and storage overage charges begin applying automatically. For organisations storing large volumes of documents, drawings, media files, or project data, hitting the SharePoint capacity threshold can become a recurring and expensive problem—especially when underlying retention policies prevent deletion.

Running Chaos Engineering on GKE Autopilot Just Got Easier

Harness Chaos Engineering now runs natively on GKE Autopilot. A simple allowlist configuration enables you to test resilience on Google's managed Kubernetes without sacrificing security or requiring workarounds. Google's GKE Autopilot provides fully managed Kubernetes without the operational overhead of node management, security patches, or capacity planning. However, running chaos engineering experiments on Autopilot has been challenging due to its security restrictions. We've solved that problem.

Harness recognized as a top partner in software delivery success

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news: Harness has once again been named to Inc.’s 2025 Power Partners list, recognizing companies that go above and beyond to help their customers succeed. This marks our second year in a row on the list — and while awards are always nice, this one feels special because it celebrates something deeper than technology. It’s about the relationships, trust, and collaboration that power real outcomes for our customers every day.

Do You Need DCIM Software If You Already Use a BMS?

A Building Management System (BMS) is commonly used in data centers to monitor and control the facility’s mechanical, electrical, and environmental systems. With a BMS in place, it’s reasonable to ask: do you still need Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software? The short answer is yes—DCIM and BMS serve occasionally overlapping but fundamentally different purposes.
