If you’re using AWS Bedrock, AWS can use your data for model improvement by default. VPC endpoints do not prevent this. You need to explicitly opt out inside AWS Organizations. It takes 2 minutes, and in this blog I’ll show you how.

ilert now supports a native WhaTap integration, connecting AI-native observability with AI-first incident management in a seamless workflow. This integration allows DevOps, SRE, and IT teams to move instantly from detection to resolution – cutting through alert noise, improving coordination, and dramatically reducing MTTR in even the most complex IT environments.

Modern data centres are hitting a wall that faster CPUs alone cannot fix. As workloads scale out and latency budgets shrink, the impact of moving data between servers is starting to become the most significant factor in overall performance. Remote Direct Memory Access, or RDMA, is one of the technologies reshaping how that data moves, and it forces a rethink of some long-held assumptions in data centre networking. This article is the first in a short series.

With all the discussion in the dev community lately about changes made at Heroku, we wanted to use this moment to talk about PaaS (Platform as a Service) providers and how AppSignal can be a vital tool to ensure you're using your app's hosts for everything from optimal performance to lower usage bills.

A lot of talk around OpenTelemetry has to do with instrumentation, especially auto-instrumentation, about OTel being vendor neutral, being open and a defacto standard. But how you use the final output of OTel is what makes business difference. In other words, how do you use it to make your life as an SRE/DevOps/biz person easier? How do you have to set things up to truly solve production issues faster?

Today we're announcing that Sentry has acquired XcodeBuildMCP, an open source MCP server that gives AI agents the ability to build, test, and debug native iOS and macOS apps. XcodeBuildMCP has become a go-to tool for agentic Apple-platform development, with more than 4,000 GitHub stars and an active community. It unlocks the full developer loop: build, run, debug, interact, and verify, allowing users to stay in their preferred agentic development environment.

The market is saturated with agents and assistants, making it difficult to tell them apart. However, the difference between these two approaches is significant. They offer radically distinct levels of impact, reflecting major differences in both their technical complexity and the quality of their inferences. Let’s figure out the distinction.

As Bernd mentioned at last year’s OSMC, the Icinga for Windows team was heavy working on v1.14.0 which was going to be released in December. Well, we are off a couple of days, but we believe the wait was worth it!

CIOs, IT leaders, platform engineering managers, and SRE/DevOps teams running multi-tool monitoring stacks who need faster incident clarity.

Christine and I started Honeycomb in 2016, which means it’s been ten years. Christine, a developer, and I, an operations engineer, were both profoundly unhappy with the state of the art in monitoring and logging tools. The tools we had used at Facebook didn’t spray our signals around to a bunch of siloed-off pillars. They consolidated as much context as possible so we could properly explore it, the way every other non-software engineering team already takes for granted.
