Who's on call? How Claude helped us calculate this 2,500x faster

Schedules are a core part of any on-call system. In ours, they define who to page and when. But people use them in lots of other ways too: checking their next shift, asking for cover while at the gym, keeping a Slack user group up to date, or updating a Linear triage responsibility. For many of our customers, they’re one of the main ways they interact with our product, and as they’re such a foundational part of On-call, it’s very important they work well.

Stop watching the looms: why the AI era belongs to infrastructure

I live in Manchester, England now. I moved here from Texas last summer (which is its own story), but the thing I wasn't prepared for is how the Industrial Revolution isn't history here. It's the city itself. And if you're American like me, you might need to hear this: the Industrial Revolution didn't start in the US. It started here. Manchester is where the modern world was born. You see it everywhere. The old cotton mills converted into apartments.

Poland's KSC Act Is Now in Force: Why NIS2 Compliance Starts with Infrastructure Automation

Poland’s implementation of the EU’s NIS2 Directive marks a decisive shift in how organisations think about cybersecurity, resilience, and operational risk. With amendments to the Act on the National Cybersecurity System (KSC Act) entering into force on 3 April 2026, enforcement expectations are now real, national, and significantly stricter than many organisations anticipated – including obligations for security controls, incident response, and supply‑chain governance.

Disaster Recovery Testing in Harness | Resilience Testing

In this video, we introduce Harness Resilience Testing and show you how to move beyond once-a-year DR drills to a continuously validated, pipeline-driven process. You'll see how Harness lets you validate regional failovers, check database replication lag under pressure, and confirm your hot standbys genuinely take over live traffic, all in one place. We also walk through a live DR test execution, showing exactly how Harness triggers the full failover sequence, runs every validation step automatically, and gives you a clear pass or fail result in real time.

Your AWS Kiro Agent Can Now Query CloudZero. Here's What To Ask It

CloudZero's new AWS Kiro integration puts cost intelligence directly in your agentic IDE. Ask plain-language questions about spend, attribution, and cost-per-serve without leaving your development workflow. We see a similar pattern playing out across engineering teams running agentic development tools: code gets shipped fast, something moves in the cost data, and understanding why still requires leaving your environment entirely.

Solving Data Center Complexity: How Hyperview's Cloud-Based DCIM Simplifies Operations and Cuts Costs

Managing a data center shouldn’t be a daunting task. Hyperview’s AI-powered DCIM makes it easier by providing intelligent solutions that streamline operations, offering relief from the chaos of traditional management systems.

Your CEO Wants You To Ramp AI Usage Without Breaking Budgets. Here's How You Can Do It

Notes from a finance leader whose job this is. A few weeks ago, I traveled to Philadelphia for a conversation with a prospective CloudZero customer. We’d been working with the prospect’s engineering team for some weeks, demoing our platform in view of the RFP they’d drawn up. This stage had gone well, and so the next step was talking it over with the prospect’s CFO. We expected a conversation centered around the key criteria in the RFP.

Optical Freedom as a Design Principle: How Ribbon Enables Choice and Supply Chain Resiliency

Pandemic-era shortages are still fresh in many minds. As consumers, we remember empty shelves and long lines driven by panic buying and stockpiling. In telecom, the story played out differently but with the same root cause: factory shutdowns interrupted chip fabrication just as demand for networking and optical equipment surged.
