Tutorial: How to Use ChaosSearch with Grafana for Observability

In my last blog post, Building a Cost-Effective Full Observability Solution Around Open APIs and CNCF Projects, we introduced using ChaosSearch in combination with the most popular open source front- and back-ends in the application observability space. In case you missed it, the TL;DR version is that you can use a variety of open source projects and open API-based components to build the best-of-breed observability stack of your choice rather than relying on expensive, all-in-one solutions.

6 Best Code Review Platforms for Jira Teams (2026)

Code review in a Jira-centric workflow can become a bottleneck fast. Pull requests pile up, context gets lost between your Git host and your issue tracker, and reviewers spend time switching tabs instead of reading code. The right code review platform should connect Git activity directly to the issues you’re tracking.

Don't Wait for Code Black Keep Patient Care Online

In April 2026, a cybersecurity incident at Signature Healthcare Brockton Hospital affected information systems across the health system. The hospital activated downtime procedures, diverted ambulances, and temporarily canceled chemotherapy infusion services.

Debugging a checkout latency spike with Sentry metrics

Checkout suddenly got a lot slower for a chunk of users, and the only clue was a spike in an application metric. In this walkthrough, we go from that spike to a linked trace that shows exactly where the time went. Using Codex alongside Sentry, we dig into the trace data, isolate the slowdown to the European backend, and follow it down to a single Stripe request that's dragging everyone down with it. Along the way, we talk through what actually helps here: caching, timeouts, async calls, and other ways to keep one slow dependency from becoming everyone's problem.
