Using Open Policy Agent (OPA) with Terraform: Tutorial and Examples [2026]

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solves the provisioning problem. It doesn't solve the governance problem. You can version your Terraform configuration, run it in a pipeline, review every pull request — and still deploy an S3 bucket with public access, a VM with no encryption, or a resource that exceeds your cost budget. Nothing in the standard IaC workflow checks for those things. The reviewer has to know what to look for. And they won't catch it every time. Policy as Code changes that.

Deterministic by Design: How Harness Grounds AI Agents in Structured Data | Harness Blog

When AI agents operate across a multi-module platform like Harness (from CI/CD to DevSecOps to FinOps), the number one goal is to give you answers that are correct, consistent, and grounded in real data. Getting there requires a deliberate architectural choice: when a question can be answered from structured platform data, the agent should use a schema-driven Knowledge Graph rather than raw API calls via MCP. The principle is simple: if the data is modeled, retrieval should be deterministic.

Phil Christianson on Balancing Innovation and Reliability in Modern Product Teams | Harness Blog

At SREday NYC 2026, the ShipTalk podcast spoke with Phil Christianson, Chief Product Officer at Xurrent, for a leadership perspective on the intersection of product strategy, engineering investment, and platform reliability. While many of the conversations at the conference focused on tools, automation, and incident response, Phil offered a view from the C-suite level, where decisions about engineering priorities and R&D investment ultimately shape how reliability practices evolve.

Kosli and Adaptavist Partner to Automate Governance for AI driven Software Delivery

Today, Kosli and Adaptavist announce a strategic partnership to help regulated enterprises automate governance for AI driven software delivery - making it automated, continuous, and evidence-driven rather than a manual checkpoint that sits apart from DevOps and CI/CD. Adaptavist brings deep enterprise DevOps transformation expertise: assessment and strategy, DevSecOps integration, developer experience, and implementation across Atlassian, GitLab, and AWS.

From Datadog to CI Tests: Catch Regressions Before Deploy

I worked in observability for years, and the same pattern showed up across teams. An alert fired, the on-call rotation scrambled, and everyone did what they had to do to stabilize production. Then came the retrospective. Once the immediate pressure was gone, the conversation shifted to one question: how do we make sure this never happens again? My friend Jade Rubick coined a name for that principle: DRI, “don’t repeat the incident”.

HAProxy at KubeCon Amsterdam 2026: the standard, by popular demand

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2026 brought thousands of cloud-native practitioners to Amsterdam for four days of talks, demos, and hallway conversations about where Kubernetes is heading. HAProxy Technologies came as a Diamond Sponsor, and by the time the exhibition floor closed on Thursday, it was clear that the market had reached the same conclusion we had. HAProxy is the standard — and this year, more people than ever were ready to say so out loud.
