The Place Where Modern Operations & Technology Come Together
Adopt open source securely from bare metal to cloud
It’s no secret that developers prefer to use open-source software in their projects. However, the Log4Shell attack or the more recent PyPl crypto miner packages have taught us that there are questions around how it should be managed. At Canonical we have been dealing with open-source security issues since the very first release of Ubuntu and way before the topic became number 1 on every CISO priority list. In this video, our team discusses how your company can manage these challenges and lay the software foundation of a successful cybersecurity program.
Load testing Grafana k6: Peak, spike, and soak tests
With k6 Cloud, Grafana Labs is in the business of generating load — lots of load, distributed across a cluster of computers. So while our customers care about the systems they load, we care that our system can generate the load that they need and process the test metrics for them in an intuitive, explorable way.
Optimize Kubernetes Performance Part 3: Streamlining Development
In this third and final part, you’ll get to see a few examples that aren’t strictly related to configuration changes or new tools, but rather ways that traffic replay can help streamline the development process for those deploying in Kubernetes.
The Storage Supply Chain and Its Effect on Infrastructure Teams
For the past couple of years, no one has been able to escape the effects of supply chain problems throughout their personal and professional lives. According to our recent State of Hybrid Cloud Storage survey, storage and the IT equipment that supports storage systems were no exception, and disruptions created extra work and headaches for those teams.

What is an SAP automation platform? The Pinewood Derby Story
My son, currently nine years old, is an active Cub Scout and we’re coming up on one of the most popular Cub Scout yearly events, the Pinewood Derby. For anyone not familiar with the Pinewood Derby, it is a competition where the scouts are given a small block of wood along with four little plastic wheels and are given the opportunity to design a car that will be raced against other scouts.
What Is OpenShift?
OpenShift is a platform that allows developers and operations engineers, or even DevOps professionals, to run containerized applications and workloads. Under the hood, it’s powered by Kubernetes, but there’s an additional architectural layer that makes life simpler for DevOps teams. OpenShift is from enterprise software specialist Red Hat and provides a range of automation options and lifecycle management, regardless of where you choose to run your applications.
How Article Turns a Spotlight on At-Risk Work to See Gains Beyond Metrics
Torsten Sinnemann from Article shares how he and his teams use Sleuth's new Work in Progress feature to improve beyond just metrics and boost efficiency, morale and value. Sleuth gives software development and engineering teams the most complete and accurate visibility into DORA metrics across your organization and projects. Work-in-progress metrics can also be helpful for communicating execution status to stakeholders, and for tracking if improvement initiatives being implemented are making a difference.
Tips to lead software teams and manage up in a challenging market

Maybe you’re tempted to micromanage your developers, thinking that if you know every aspect of their work, it’ll boost productivity. But, that approach doesn’t feel right, and you know your devs would hate you for it. What’s an engineering manager to do?
