The Place Where Modern Operations & Technology Come Together
Explore CircleCI projects from your IDE with AI assistance
CircleCI gives you deep visibility into your builds, workflows, and tests, but jumping between browser tabs, copying project URLs, or re-authenticating across tools can slow things down. What if your IDE could just show you the projects you’re working on and let you act on them directly? This post shows how to use the list_followed_projects tool in the CircleCI MCP server to browse and interact with your CircleCI projects by chatting with an AI assistant inside your IDE.
How to set up chaos engineering in your CI/CD pipeline with CircleCI and Chaos Toolkit
Distributed architecture is increasingly being adopted in current software systems because it brings great scalability and flexibility, keeping them resilient under real-world conditions, Unfortunately, this new distribution also introduces new points of failure in the systems. Traditional testing methods are no longer enough; they focus only on whether a system works, not on whether it keeps working under stress or failure. That is where chaos engineering comes in.
Monitoring Oracle Cloud Load Balancer: Unlock peak performance with Applications Manager
Imagine you’re running a popular online learning platform that experiences a surge in traffic during peak hours, right before exams. Students worldwide are logging in simultaneously, watching videos, submitting assignments, and taking tests. If your Oracle Cloud Load Balancer isn’t distributing traffic efficiently or back-end servers are struggling to keep up, students could face slow loading times or service outages.
30 Cloud Computing Tools To Simplify Cloud Management
Cloud computing empowers organizations to access IT resources on demand, over the Internet, and on a pay-per-use basis. Thus, your company does not need to purchase, install, operate, and upgrade hardware for physical data centers. Instead, you can rent resources as needed from cloud service providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS). For instance, AWS provides compute, storage, database, networking, machine learning, data lake, analytics, security, and IoT resources/services.
How to Improve Business Cybersecurity
There is no doubt that the number of threats that can impact a company has grown over the past years. Therefore, you need to be constantly vigilant in ensuring that your company's cybersecurity is the very best that it can be.

Top 5 Benefits of a Status Page Aggregator
According to the 2024 State of SaaSOps report, organizations now use an average of 112 SaaS applications. That’s 112 potential points of failure. Manually checking or subscribing to each of those status pages is not scalable. Even small teams often rely on 30+ services spanning infrastructure, communication, payments, and security. A status page aggregator like StatusGator consolidates service statuses from hundreds or even thousands of providers into a single, unified view.
Why Manual Tuning Fails: A Better Way to Optimize Kubernetes Workloads
As a data platform engineer, you’re tasked with running complex workloads—Apache Spark jobs, AI/ML pipelines, batch ETL—across dynamic Kubernetes environments. Performance matters. Time spent tuning matters. And so does cost. But if you’re still relying on manual resource tuning to optimize your workloads, you’re playing a losing game. Sure, you can tweak CPU and memory requests by hand. You can comb through Prometheus metrics, look at job logs, estimate peaks.
7 Best Network Configuration Management Tools
If you want a secure, efficient, and compliant network, network configuration management is a must. Whether managing a small network or being responsible for a large enterprise system, having the right solution can make all the difference. Network configuration management tools provide valuable insights into devices on your network, and they can help quickly restore previous configurations in the event of a failure, misconfiguration, or security incident. What is network configuration management?
Improve user access and admin controls with the latest platform updates from Sumo Logic
By centralizing your mission-critical logs, metrics, traces, and events from all of your systems into one platform, Sumo Logic enables teams across development, security, and operations to operate from a single source of truth. While this unified approach is crucial for fast issue identification and minimizing downtime from infrastructure failures or security breaches, not everyone on your team needs access to every bit of data.
