The Incident You Never Had: Deterministic Simulations w/ Will Wilson (Antithesis CEO)

Most reliability engineering happens after something breaks. Will Wilson thinks that's the wrong place to be. As co-founder and CEO of Antithesis, the autonomous testing platform that just raised $105M in a Series A led by Jane Street, Will has spent years building the infrastructure to catch failure modes before they ever reach production. His starting point is uncomfortable: the testing practices most teams rely on are structurally incapable of finding the bugs that cause real incidents.

Securing AI and Securing With AI: AI Security from Code to Runtime With Harness | Harness Blog

AI is changing both what you build and how you build it - at the same time. Today, Harness is announcing two new products to secure both: AI Security, a new product to discover, test, and protect AI running in your applications, and Secure AI Coding, a new capability of Harness SAST that secures the code your AI tools are writing.

Top 10 Container Orchestration Tools & Platforms Worth Checking Out in 2026

Sources: G2 reviews, vendor documentation, 2026 market data. Docker's release in 2013 made Linux namespaces and cgroups accessible without deep kernel expertise, and container adoption took off fast. The value was clear: one portable unit with everything the process needs, running consistently across any host. Teams that were previously shipping VMs with bundled OS, runtime, and application code finally had a better option, and they took it.

Code Optimization: The Cloud Always Collects Its $2,000 Tuition Fee

We hear a lot of war stories from the teams we work with. Horror stories about cloud bills, surprise overages, and the infrastructure decisions that seemed perfectly reasonable at the time. This one comes from Erik Dasque, CTO at Allure Security. It involves a junior developer, a Kubernetes CronJob, and a recurring bill that, if not caught, would have happened on a yearly basis.

5 AI And Cloud Cost Problems That Are Now Everyone's Problem

Not long ago, cloud cost was an engineering problem. FinOps teams owned it, finance leaned in occasionally, and everyone else stayed out of it. Now, that’s changed. AI changed who has skin in the game. CFOs get asked about it in board meetings. CEOs field questions on earnings calls. The audience for cloud cost management has exploded — and that means the conversation CloudZero is built to enable isn’t only a technical one, it’s a business one.

Nine Ways to Connect to Cloud Using Private Connectivity

Struggling with cloud complexity? Compare dedicated, partner, and IPsec connections to find the right private connectivity solution. Multicloud environments bring complexity, and how you connect to your CSPs can make or break performance, cost, and reliability. Here’s how dedicated, partner, and IPsec connections compare — and which might be right for your business. There are three main methods of connecting to the cloud with private connectivity.

The hidden reliability risks in your agentic AI workflows

Artificial intelligence recently took a major leap from “saying” to “doing.” Instead of simple back-and-forth chats, we’re now allowing automated AI processes to take action on our behalf—from responding to emails to building and deploying complete applications. This shift from “assistant” to “actor” can make applications more capable, but it also creates additional failure modes.

Building a dry-run mode for the OpenTelemetry Collector

Teams continuously deploy programmable telemetry pipelines to production, without having access to a dry-run mode. At the same time, most organizations lack staging environments that resemble production – especially with regards to observability and other platform-level services.

Top 10 Platform Engineering Platforms for 2026 (March Edition)
