Troubleshoot performance issues faster with the new Grafana Assistant integration for Database Observability

May 6, 2026 By Jeremy Heller In Grafana
So your database is slow. Now what? Grafana Cloud Database Observability already gives you visibility into your SQL queries with RED metrics, individual execution samples, wait event breakdowns, table schemas, and visual explain plans.

How AI Video Tools Like Face Swap Are Expanding Creative Workflows

May 6, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
I have spent a lot of time looking at how businesses create content, and one thing has become very clear to me: video is no longer a separate creative format.

We discuss tech CEOs proudly announcing they no longer think for themselves and debate whether AI is quietly eroding our critical thinking skills. We make the case that purpose-built, narrow AI is genuinely exciting, but that no efficiency gain is worth losing the human touch that makes work, connection, and creativity meaningful.

May 5, 2026 By Scott Castle In CloudZero
AI adoption costs are going parabolic. The companies that can see what they're spending will invest with confidence. Everyone else is flying blind. Every company adopting AI is facing the same problem: the cost of AI adoption in products, in operations, and especially in engineering is accelerating with no alignment between spend and value. The competitive pressure is real. Companies that don’t invest in AI will be displaced by those that do. But the investment itself is becoming inscrutable.
