Why engineers ignore cloud cost governance (and fixes)

Discover why engineers ignore cloud cost governance and how to build developer cost accountability. Learn how Harness helps empower engineering teams. Engineers often overlook cloud costs due to friction in traditional FinOps tools and a lack of real-time visibility. By embedding automated guardrails and shift-left cost insights into developer workflows, organizations can drive accountability without slowing velocity.

Seer, the Sentry MCP and CLI, or your own coding agent: where each one fits

I’ve been getting some version of this question a lot lately, mostly in our Seer preview webinars. Different audiences, same handful of questions: Worth answering all three in one place. Honestly, I needed to write this down for myself too. Things are moving fast around all of us and answers seem to get more nuanced by the week. This is an attempt to codify the difference: what each option is and when it makes sense to reach for one over the other.

Databricks' native monitoring resources

In the first part of this series, we cataloged key metrics for Databricks data engineering, analytics, and Model Serving workloads. In this post, we’ll discuss how to collect those metrics and other telemetry data from Databricks and Apache Spark, which powers Databricks under the hood. We’ll cover collecting and querying telemetry data via system tables, as well as the other primary sources of visibility into.

Monitor Databricks with Datadog

Earlier in this series, we covered key metrics for monitoring performance in Databricks and discussed Databricks’ native resources for accessing those metrics and other key observability data, such as logs and data lineage. In this post, we’ll cover using the Databricks integration to bring that data into Datadog and monitor your Databricks analytics and AI/ML workloads alongside the rest of your end-to-end data pipelines and distributed infrastructure. We’ll show you how to.

What Is GitOps? Principles, Benefits, and How It Works

With GitOps, you can roll back your cluster with git revert and explain each approved change through a commit log. Routing normal changes through Git and running an in-cluster agent that detects drift from the repository gives infrastructure changes the same review and rollback discipline as application code, and Git preserves their history. This guide covers the four GitOps principles, the pull-based reconciliation workflow, and the tools and practices you need to get started.

Emergency Plumber vs Standard Plumber: Which Service Is Right For Your Urgent Repairs?

Plumbing issues can disrupt the peace and comfort of your home, often striking at the most inconvenient times. Imagine a burst pipe or a flooded bathroom in the middle of the night - situations that require immediate attention. This article will explore the differences between emergency plumbing services and standard plumbing services, helping you decide which is best suited for your urgent repair needs. We'll also consider the key factors you should weigh when choosing between these two options.

A Simple First-Project Workflow for Trying Seedance 2.5

A first AI video project becomes difficult to evaluate when the idea includes several subjects, changing locations, camera moves, and a detailed story. If the output fails, a beginner may have no clear way to tell what went wrong. A small project gives each revision a useful purpose. Try Seedance 2.5 with one visible action and a simple ending. Treat the first output as a draft to inspect before editing.
