SLA, SLO, and SLI: Understanding the Foundations of Service Reliability

Oct 28, 2025 By samyatimohanty In Spike
Last week, I ordered a pizza on a food delivery app. And they promised the delivery in 30 minutes. Similarly, all digital services: Apps, websites, cloud platforms, etc, make promises about speed, uptime, and reliability. The difference is how they track and measure those promises. That’s where SLA, SLO, and SLI come in. These three metrics define what “reliable” actually means. They turn a vague claim like “99.9% uptime” into something you can measure, track, and act on.

Shadow AI on Trial: The Phantom Threat to Compliance

Oct 27, 2025 By Teneo In Teneo
Every law firm I meet can explain its information security policy in minutes. Far fewer can tell me which AI tools their staff actually used last week, and what data those tools touched. That gap is where Shadow AI sits, such as unsanctioned, unmonitored use of generative AI slips in. It promises speed, but it quietly creates exposure: confidentiality breaches, weak auditability, and a risk to governance when the regulator (or a client’s GC) asks hard questions.

Oct 27, 2025 By Cortex In Cortex
Platform teams handle cluster provisioning manually because it requires oversight. A product team needs a cluster, so they submit a request. Someone reviews the configuration, provisions it through the cloud provider, waits for it to spin up, and sends back access details. Two days later, the cluster is ready. The delay is intentional. Without review, teams provision oversized clusters that blow budgets, misconfigure networking, or deploy in the wrong regions.
