Canonical and OpenAirInterface to collaborate on open source telecom network infrastructure

Canonical is excited to announce that we are collaborating with OpenAirInterface (OAI) to drive the development and promotion of open source software for open radio access networks (Open RAN). Canonical will bring automation in software lifecycle management to OAI’s RAN stack, alongside additional infrastructure capabilities. This will better enable telcos to adopt open source software as the telecom industry transitions to Open RAN running on COTS hardware.

Simplifying AWS Testing: A Guide to AWS SDK Mock

Testing AWS services is an essential step in creating robust cloud applications. However, directly interacting with AWS during testing can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. The AWS SDK Mock is a JavaScript library designed to simplify this process by allowing developers to mock AWS SDK methods, making it easier to simulate AWS service interactions in a controlled environment. Primarily used with AWS SDK v2, AWS SDK Mock integrates with Sinon.js to mock AWS services like S3, SNS, and DynamoDB.

Faster Incident Response with Cortex: A Before and After Story

The most time-consuming part of incident resolution is a data problem. Who owns this service? What's it made of? What are the dependencies? Where are the run books? Learn how Cortex cuts incident response time and prevents new issues with up-to-date ownership, reliable runbooks, and Scorecards that drive continuous improvement.

Shlomi Ben Haim, CEO & Co-Founder, JFrog - EveryOps Matters

Developers used to code. Now they manage, import, secure, build, package, deliver and monitor… the list of every “Ops” is ever-growing. As if this wasn’t enough, they are now being asked by the C-suite to work with data science and machine learning teams in a gold rush of AI and ML-enabled application delivery. In our annual swampUP kickoff, join JFrog Co-founder and CEO Shlomi Ben Haim - alongside a special guest - as we explore how developers may still start with code and CI, but are increasingly asked to hold the reins of EveryOps; building, securing and delivering alongside the machines and systems they created.

Tech Carbon Footprint: How Much Does Online Activity Contribute To Emissions?

In today’s digital age, social media and online communication have become an integral part of our daily lives. From scrolling through TikTok and Instagram to sending countless texts and emails, we’re constantly connected. Each minute spent scrolling or sending a quick message may seem harmless, but these small actions add up to a significant carbon footprint. The tech industry accounts for 7% of global emissions and is predicted to rise with the growth of data centers.

Interpreting your reliability test results

Gremlin’s default suite of reliability tests analyzes critical functions of modern services: scalability, redundancy, and resilience to dependency failures. Services that pass this suite of tests can be trusted to remain available during unexpected incidents. But what happens when a service fails a test? How do you take failed test results and turn them into actionable insights? This blog aims to answer that question.

Network Modernization: From Legacy TDM to Service Resiliency

Utilities today are focused on the 3-Ds, De-Carbonization and the transition to renewable energy, De-Centralization of energy resources and infrastructure, and Digitalization, with smart systems, grids, and substation modernization. In addition, the need to integrate the IT & OT networks puts the pressure on to increase efficiencies - but it also opens and enables a world of possibilities for the next-generation Utility, flexible to new Telco service offerings and revenue streams.

EU's Cyber Resilience Act Repercussions in Open Source
