Get more value out of your Cortex catalog with our MCP prompt library

Dec 11, 2025 By Cortex In Cortex
You've set up the Cortex MCP and connected it to your AI assistant and IDE. You ask about service ownership, check a Scorecard or two, and it works. You're impressed by how much faster this is than clicking through the web UI. Now you're wondering what else you can do with it. I'm willing to bet we've hit a nerve with that "hypothetical" scenario. The Cortex MCP works exactly as designed, but it's deceptively difficult to know which questions to ask and when to ask them.

Sanitizing HTTP/1: a technical deep dive into HAProxy's HTX abstraction layer

Dec 11, 2025 By Christopher Faulet In HAProxy
HTTP/1.1 is a text-based protocol where the message framing is mixed with its semantics, making it easy to parse incorrectly. The boundaries between messages are very weak because there is no clear delimiter between them. Thus, HTTP/1.1 parsers are especially vulnerable to request smuggling attacks.

What I Learned From Building an eBPF-Based Traffic Capture Application

Dec 10, 2025 By Shaun Duncan In Speedscale
I just finished building Speedscale’s eBPF-based component to capture and analyze network traffic in a Kubernetes cluster, and it forced me to confront some uncomfortable truths about observability. While there were certainly some challenges along the way, particularly in dealing with Go applications, the approach was relatively straightforward.

Store Docker images in Bitbucket with Bitbucket Packages | Bitbucket Blitz | Atlassian

Dec 10, 2025 By Atlassian In Atlassian
In this video, I’ll show you how to store your Docker images directly in Bitbucket using Bitbucket Packages, so your code, CI/CD, and container images all live in one place. Bitbucket Packages is a native Docker registry for Bitbucket. By keeping your images alongside your repositories and pipelines, you can reduce tech stack complexity and enhance your security posture by managing permissions in a single system, rather than juggling yet another external registry, such as Docker Hub or Artifactory.

What is cloud parity? The future of flexible and sovereign cloud computing

Dec 10, 2025 By Mark Boost In Civo
Back in 2024, I officially put a name to a concept at Civo we had been developing for many years. I called it cloud parity. When Civo was incepted, two completely different worlds existed, the public cloud dominated by Amazon, Microsoft and Google, and the private cloud dominated mainly by VMware.

Top Data Center Management Trends to Watch in 2026

Dec 10, 2025 By Sunbird In Sunbird
The pace of change in data center operations shows no sign of slowing, and 2026 is shaping up to be another year of rapid evolution. AI-driven demand is accelerating, hybrid architectures are growing more complex, and capacity constraints are forcing teams to rethink how they plan and operate their environments. Against this backdrop, data center professionals are reassessing the tools, processes, and strategies they rely on every day.

Building dbRosetta Part 5: We Need an API

Dec 10, 2025 By Grant Fritchey In Redgate
Because I don’t want to have to fight with our support team (they’re awesome, but busy) I decided that, initially, I’m going to host dbRosetta at ScaryDBA.com. I have full control of the web site, and I won’t be breaking Redgate Software entirely if I accidently do something silly. Before starting the process of developing our next prompt, or set of prompts, I discussed the project with CoPilot. We agreed to break the next part into two pieces.

How Self-Service Workflows Transform Developer Productivity

Dec 10, 2025 By Bri Strozewski In Harness
Forget the ticket queues and slow handoffs. Harness Workflows let developers spin up services, environments, and everyday ops tasks in minutes. It’s self-service that’s fast, safe, and actually fun to use. A developer once told me, half-joking and half-frustrated, “I spend more time waiting than coding.” It wasn’t the dramatic kind of waiting, like an hour-long debugging session or a blocked deployment at midnight.

CI/CD for Go Microservices on Scaleway Kubernetes with CircleCI

Dec 10, 2025 By Olususi Oluyemi In CircleCI
Development teams depend on microservices to build, deploy, and scale features independently. Microservices have become the backbone of modern, scalable applications. Scaleway’s managed Kubernetes service (Kubernetes Kapsule) offers a powerful, cost-effective platform for running containerized workloads in the cloud. It’s a great fit for startups and solo engineers who want to focus on shipping features, not managing infrastructure.

The Indirect Cost Trap: Why Your Margins Look Better Than They Are (And How To Fix It)

Dec 10, 2025 By Keith MacKenzie In CloudZero
When a SaaS company scales, something curious happens. The cloud bill grows. One team swears it’s Kubernetes. Another blames the Black Friday promo. But when you’re unsure whether that increase is tied to healthy SaaS growth or simply overspending, your margins are already at risk. That gap between what’s spent and what’s understood is where indirect costs live. Yet these costs rarely show up in dashboards. Well, until it’s too late.
