A Technical Guide to Controls Engineering

Feb 16, 2026 By Mike Long In Kosli
The modern world runs on mission-critical software. It moves our money, drives our cars, diagnoses our illnesses, and fundamentally improves our lives. But, organizations building this critical software face a paradox: they need to move fast to stay competitive, but they also need rigorous governance to manage risk. This has created a lot of tension in regulated industries.

Code Is Cheap, Reliability Isn't: Owning Production in the AI era w/ Swizec Teller

Feb 16, 2026 By Rootly In Rootly
In this episode, Swizec Teller, author of the bestselling Scaling Fast, makes a bold claim: code is cheap, reliability is not. As AI coding tools accelerate feature development, the real competitive advantage shifts to operating systems reliably in production. We explore the hidden complexity of SRE work, the addictive nature of agentic coding, and why ownership — not automation — remains at the core of modern software engineering.

Introducing Konstruct: GitOps-powered IDP in minutes

Feb 16, 2026 By John Dietz In Civo
"I wish I knew about this a couple years ago..." Over my seven years as a cofounder, I've heard some version of that line more than any other. Usually, it comes at the end of a demo to someone who has spent a year getting to something not even close to what they're seeing on my screen. The story is always the same. An organization adopts Kubernetes and arrives at the inevitable conclusion that they need a platform.

BygoneSSL happened to us

Feb 16, 2026 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit
A few months ago I wrote about BygoneSSL and the 1.5 million domains with valid certificates owned by someone else. Domains change hands but certificates don’t know. The old owner keeps their private key, and the certificate keeps working. It’s an industry problem, but it turns out it’s our problem too. We purchased certkit.dev for internal development and demos.

AI SRE in Practice: Diagnosing AWS CNI IP Exhaustion Before Widespread Outage

Feb 16, 2026 By Itiel Shwartz In Komodor
IP address exhaustion in Kubernetes doesn’t announce itself with clear error messages. Pods fail to schedule, services degrade unpredictably, and the symptoms look like a dozen different problems before anyone realizes the cluster has run out of available IP addresses. By the time the root cause becomes clear, multiple services are affected and recovery requires coordination across infrastructure layers.

How to eliminate DevOps toil in regulated SaaS

Feb 16, 2026 By Upsun In Upsun
In regulated industries like fintech, healthcare, and government, DevOps teams often find themselves acting as human compliance gateways. The pressure to maintain strict security standards while accelerating release cycles creates a compliance tax: a heavy burden of manual environment setups, security review tickets, and the inevitable scramble for evidence before an audit. This manual labor, or toil, is more than a drain on productivity. It creates a dangerous gap between policy and actual operations.

Scaling Infrastructure Teams: The Increasing Need for Rust Engineers

Scaling Infrastructure Teams: The Increasing Need for Rust Engineers

Feb 16, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
The Infrastructure teams have had to continuously improve current systems to make them faster, safer, and more reliable. With the growth of cloud services, the complexity of applications, and the demand for low-latency processing, engineering teams still need the best tools and languages to build these systems. The traditional languages that have been used for decades to power system-level development, i.e., C, C++, and Java, have long been the standard. But as software system complexity becomes unsustainable, the factors that limit safety, memory management, and concurrency are becoming increasingly obvious.

Oracle JDK to OpenJDK: A Guide to Reliable Migration Testing

Feb 15, 2026 By Matthew LeRay In Speedscale
One of the most common infrastructure changes Java developers and operators are dealing with today is the migration from Oracle Java to OpenJDK. The reason is the licensing changes made by Oracle and the maturity of the OpenJDK distributions. The migration process is quite simple: replace the JDK, recompile the code, and redeploy the application. However, the differences between the two runtimes can lead to unexpected issues that are not caught by unit tests.
