Buy vs Build in the Age of AI (Part 1)

Mar 4, 2026 By James Barnes In StatusCake
A few months ago, I spoke to an engineering manager who proudly told me they had rebuilt their monitoring stack over a long weekend. They’d used AI to scaffold synthetic checks. They’d generated alert logic with dynamic thresholds. They’d then wired everything into Slack and PagerDuty, and built a clean internal dashboard. “It used to take us weeks to prototype something like this,” they said. “Now it’s basically instant.” They weren’t wrong.

On February 20, 2026, Anthropic launched Claude Code Security, an AI-based tool to scan codebases, identify security weaknesses, and provide patching solutions.

Debugging Encrypted Microservice Traffic with Speedscale's eBPF Collector

Mar 3, 2026 By Matthew LeRay In Speedscale
Production bugs that only reproduce in actual traffic can be some of the most frustrating bugs in software development. You can stare at your logs, add traces to your code, add instrumentation – and still not be able to see the actual requests that went over the wire.

Spring Boot API Testing: A Practical Guide for Enterprise Teams
