Beyond Automation: Empowering Human Skills in an AI-First Workplace

Oct 30, 2024 By Samitha Nagasinghe, Project Manager at Calero In OpsMatters
In 2024, generative AI will no longer be an experiment. It sits in the inboxes of office workers and quietly reshapes the nine-to-five. A joint study from Microsoft and LinkedIn spotted 75% of knowledge professionals leaning on smart software every day-an appetite that nearly doubled in just half a year. Colleagues who spoke up said the tools trim minutes that once dragged on, set them free for the messy, high-stakes decisions, and sprinkle a bit of fresh creativity across the page. A glance at the numbers shows how fast the push is spreading.

Developer Self-Service: The Benefits for DevOps & How Platform Engineering Makes It Happen

Oct 25, 2024 By Margaret Lee In Puppet
Developer self-service can sound like a dream: A platform that developers can use to freely develop — unburdened by sprawling IT, tools they shouldn’t need to know how to use, and tickets that take forever to complete. But in DevOps, self-service is becoming a differentiator for organizations with growth goals, widening skill gaps, a need for visibility, or just an appetite for better DevOps efficiency.

Oct 25, 2024 By Nick Anderson In CFEngine
What’s the difference between an associative array and a data container in CFEngine? CFEngine has two ways in which structured data can be used, associative arrays (sometimes called classic arrays) and data containers. Let’s take a look at a simple data structure.

Feature Friday #32: Doing math in policy with eval()

Oct 18, 2024 By Nick Anderson In CFEngine
Ever need to do some math during policy evaluation? Sometimes configuration settings are based on available resources. For example, what if you want to calculate the size of shared buffers to be 25% of your available memory? Let’s write some policy. First, we need to figure out how much memory we have. Let’s parse this out from /proc/meminfo: So, we have 65505464 kB of memory in total. Knowing that we can use eval() to calculate what 25% is. eval() can also be used to test truthfulness.
