Today, we’re excited to announce support for AWS PrivateLink, allowing Logz.io customers to securely send logs and metrics through private VPC connectivity, without any data ever hitting the public internet. If you’re running workloads inside a VPC on AWS, this upgrade drastically improves your security posture, simplifies your networking architecture, and – most notably – reduces your data transfer costs (a lot).

The following serves as a practical guide for those looking to simplify their architecture by migrating to a Rust monolith. Earlier this year, the platform team at InfluxData undertook a major rewrite of our core account and resource management APIs, moving from Go to Rust and from a microservices architecture to a single monolith. This change supported a new administrative UI for InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated and aligns with our broader effort to rewrite the InfluxDB database engine in Rust.

For MSPs, the daily juggling act of managing multiple tools can be a drain on resources, efficiency, and, ultimately, your bottom line. You need comprehensive visibility, streamlined workflows, and the ability to proactively address client needs—all without the headache of disparate systems. That's why we're excited to announce the launch of MSP Central, your comprehensive, unified platform for streamlined MSP business management.

Rich Communication Services (RCS) is an advanced messaging protocol designed to replace traditional SMS. Supported by most modern Android smartphones and, starting with iOS 18, also iPhones, RCS offers a significantly richer messaging experience. It brings features like: RCS elevates the way organizations communicate with users by aligning with the capabilities expected from today’s messaging platforms.

Every IT decision-maker faces a common challenge: balancing operational efficiency with cost control. While software solutions help streamline operations and drive efficiency, they can introduce redundancies into your system. These redundancies strengthen availability through backup systems but often complicate data management, leading to inconsistencies and potential outages. This is where hardware solutions like fabric interconnects prove invaluable.

The enterprise artifact management market - which has belonged for a while to JFrog and Sonatype - is now truly up for grabs. Cloudsmith was built on the core principle that cloud-native architecture matters. So does simplicity in design and workflow. Partnerships matter, too. We’ve built a comprehensive platform that controls and secures every artifact as it’s built, scanned, signed, stored, and shipped across the software supply chain.

Most IT leaders already understand that AI is the future of operations, but too many are still treating it like it’s so far off. The irony? Waiting is exactly what’s costing them the most. While businesses obsess over budget cuts, resource constraints, and service quality, one truth remains: delays in adopting AI for IT operations are compounding operational inefficiencies, inflating labor costs, and stalling digital progress. AI isn’t just about innovation; it’s about scale.

As digital operations grow increasingly more complex, resilience is no longer optional, it’s essential. The next major outage isn’t a question of if, but when. And when it hits, the gap between true enterprise platforms and brittle point tools will become impossible to ignore.

Looking for the best on-call scheduling software for your team? Or maybe you’re exploring alternatives to your current tool? Signing up for different on-call tools and testing them all takes weeks. That’s a lot of time you probably don’t have, especially when you need reliable on-call coverage now. That’s why I did the heavy lifting for you. I signed up for and tested the 5 popular on-call scheduling tools in the market: Spike, PagerDuty, Incident.io, Splunk Oncall, and OpsGenie.
