API World 2025: Growth, Memories, and Next Steps

A couple of weeks ago, our team returned from API World. We’ve officially had a few weeks to decompress and get back into the swing of things after an incredible time at API World 2025. Looking back, the experience was even more rewarding than I had imagined in my Pre-API World blog. This year was especially memorable for me, as I had the opportunity to attend my first tech conference and travel across the country for work. I’m still buzzing from everything I learned and the people I met.

My Criteria for Automated Incident Response Tools

Managing incidents manually isn’t realistic when their number keeps growing. That’s where automated incident response tools come in. They handle routine tasks so you can focus on actual problem-solving. In this blog, I’ve put together a list of the 9 best automated incident response tools for you. I looked at each one based on four key areas of the incident response process. This will help you see how they handle everything from start to finish.

Streamline Software Delivery Right From Your IDE with Amazon Kiro and Harness

The integration of Amazon Kiro and Harness’s MCP server enables developers to manage, troubleshoot, and optimize CI/CD pipelines directly from their IDE using natural language, dramatically reducing manual effort and accelerating software delivery from code generation to production.

Global Online Meetup: K3k

Even though multi-tenancy isn't a new concept, when it comes to Kubernetes, implementing the concept can come with its own set of challenges - noisy neighbours, operational complexities, and, of course, security considerations. Sounds like a lot? Well, that's why it's essential to strike a balance between flexibility and optimising resource utilisation. Join Divya Mohan at 2 PM UTC on 25th September as she hosts Rossella Sblendido and Jean-Phillipe Gouin to explore how the K3k project from SUSE helps us achieve all this and more in this edition of the Global Online Meetup.

Why Security Must Include Cost Accountability In The Cloud

A SaaS team once spotted their first breach not in a SIEM dashboard, but in their AWS bill. Their compute costs spiked by 400% overnight. Turns out, an attacker had spun up dozens of high-powered instances for crypto mining. Logs eventually confirmed the intrusion, but the cost anomaly was the first signal that something was wrong. This incident isn’t unusual. Cloud costs often reflect consumption, but they can also reflect compromise.

Monitor Kubernetes Hosts with OpenTelemetry

It’s 3 AM. API latency just spiked from 200ms to 2s. Alerts are firing, and users are frustrated. You SSH into the first server: top, free -h, iostat — nothing unusual. On to the next host. And the next. That’s how most of us learned to debug. The tools worked, and we got good at using them. But as infrastructure became distributed and dynamic, this approach started to break down. Modern monitoring needs more than SSH and top. It needs unified telemetry.
