In our last release, we introduced a beta of performance updates designed for heavier, more complex time series workloads. InfluxDB 3.10 expands that beta to include enterprise features that give teams more control as they scale and manage larger workloads in InfluxDB 3. This release adds end-to-end backup and restore, row-level deletes, bulk import from Parquet, user management, and an RBAC preview to the previous performance beta.

For a decade, one idea has guided everything we’ve built at Tigera: How do you secure a dynamic system with a lot of moving parts that is changing rapidly, with a programmatic approach? Calico has applied that idea for Global 2000 companies running the largest Kubernetes platforms in the world, securing tens of millions of mission-critical transactions every day. Today I’m excited to announce the next chapter of that work: Lynx, a unified control plane for Kubernetes-native AI agents.

It’s been a busy quarter at OnPage. We recently rolled out our updated Enterprise Management Console to a select group of beta customers, and the early feedback has been exciting to see. The new experience gives teams a cleaner, more modern way to manage critical communication workflows, on-call schedules, alerting activity and team visibility from one place. But we have not slowed down there.

Engineering leadership is in the middle of a real transition, and most of the leaders I talk to know it. AI has reshaped how software gets built quickly enough that the operating models many of us spent a decade refining no longer fit cleanly, and there is a great deal of serious work happening across the industry to figure out how these models should evolve. The teams I find most impressive right now are the ones treating their operating model as an open question rather than a settled one.

AI SRE Platform’s new capabilities resolve structural blockers and optimize workload placement, eliminating cloud waste to drive up to 80% in total cost savings.

We’re excited to announce the launch of the StatusGator browser extension, now available for both Chrome and Firefox. Whether you’re troubleshooting an issue, wondering if a website is down, or looking for more information about an ongoing incident, the extension gives you instant access to service status information with a single click. Simply install the extension and start checking the status of websites and services as you browse.

HAProxy 3.4 is a milestone release that significantly advances HAProxy’s legendary flexibility, performance, security, reliability, and observability. Dynamic backend management simplifies integration with modern architectures, memory efficiency improves across a broader range of workloads, native cryptographic operations at the proxy layer open new possibilities for API security architectures, and OpenTelemetry support makes HAProxy a first-class participant in distributed tracing pipelines.

Gartner expects worldwide AI software spending to hit $2.59 trillion in 2026, 47% more than organizations spent last year. The dollars are real and growing fast. But most organizations still can't measure the ROI of that spend. The problem has two sides: developers and infrastructure. On the developer side, engineers are using AI to write nearly every line of new code, and leaders have no way to tell whether that spend is producing software that ships.

Today, Canonical announced the release of Workshop, a solution for launching development environments with a single command. These environments are configured once, and can be reproduced on different machines. This means consistent workflows across development machines and deployment pipelines, and less time managing dependencies.

If you manage enterprise networks, this scenario probably sounds familiar: An IP conflict surfaces, connectivity drops for a group of users, and the confusion begins. You check your DHCP server, dig through scope utilization, and try to piece together what went wrong, often after the disruption has already occurred. For years, network administrators have needed a single console for visibility and control into DHCP.
