Free vs. paid website monitoring: When should you upgrade?

Every growing business hits a moment of truth somewhere between "we just launched" and "we just lost a customer because our site was down for 40 minutes." It's then that you realize the free monitoring tool you set up six months ago—the one that felt more than adequate at the time—is no longer pulling its weight.

Beyond the 10-year mark: Extending Ubuntu Pro 16.04 LTS security coverage

A decade ago, Canonical launched Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (codenamed “Xenial Xerus”). As a Long-Term Support (LTS) release, it comes with 5 years of standard security coverage, which is doubled to a total of 10 years through Expanded Security Maintenance (ESM) for users with an Ubuntu Pro subscription. As of April 30, 2026, the 10-year ESM coverage for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, under Ubuntu Pro, has officially reached its end of support.

Android development shouldn't start with a physical device

How on-demand Android environments lay the foundation for Android engineering Software engineering has evolved dramatically over the last decade. Development environments that once depended on dedicated hardware have become resources that can be provisioned, configured, and removed on demand. Infrastructure is now expected to be reproducible, automated, and integrated into continuous development workflows. However, Android has largely remained an exception.

What Is an Agentic Development Environment? Kepler Is GitKraken's Answer.

Every new AI coding agent comes with the same pitch: write code faster. For most devs, that part already checks out. Codex writes a function in seconds. Claude Code refactors a file mid-meeting. Copilot fills in a test before you finish describing it. None of that touches the problem that shows up an hour later: five agents running across three repositories, each with its own diff, and no single place to see what’s stuck, what’s done, and what’s actually safe to ship.

Introducing Upsun Dispatch - AI helped your engineers ship more code, now you can ship more product

AI models got good enough that teams want to let them loose on the backlog. Then somebody asks who approved that change, what is waiting on a decision, and what the agent actually cost. Upsun Dispatch gives your team and your agents a shared place to work together. It runs on the repository you already have, connects to the tools your team already uses, and keeps a person on the decisions that matter.

How to Configure Redundancy Channels in the OnPage Console

Learn how to configure redundancy notifications and copy recipients for a contact in the OnPage Console. This video walks through disabling Secure Messaging, setting the redundancy time interval, selecting additional delivery channels and sending message copies through email, SMS or IVR/voice call. Important: Disabling Secure Messaging means messages will no longer be delivered through OnPage’s secure channel. This configuration is not HIPAA compliant and should not be used for healthcare communications requiring HIPAA compliance.

Open Sourcing Kubex's GPU Process Exporter: Gain Visibility in Your Shared GPUs

Table of Contents GPU sharing with NVIDIA hardware is becoming easier to adopt in Kubernetes but it hasn’t been easier to observe. Time-slicing lets multiple workloads share the same GPU. MPS allows CUDA workloads to execute concurrently. Schedulers like KAI make it easier to manage these shared environments. But sharing a GPU introduces a problem that is easy to underestimate.
