Tech Carbon Footprint: How Much Does Online Activity Contribute To Emissions?

In today’s digital age, social media and online communication have become an integral part of our daily lives. From scrolling through TikTok and Instagram to sending countless texts and emails, we’re constantly connected. Each minute spent scrolling or sending a quick message may seem harmless, but these small actions add up to a significant carbon footprint. The tech industry accounts for 7% of global emissions and is predicted to rise with the growth of data centers.

Interpreting your reliability test results

Gremlin’s default suite of reliability tests analyzes critical functions of modern services: scalability, redundancy, and resilience to dependency failures. Services that pass this suite of tests can be trusted to remain available during unexpected incidents. But what happens when a service fails a test? How do you take failed test results and turn them into actionable insights? This blog aims to answer that question.

Network Modernization: From Legacy TDM to Service Resiliency

Utilities today are focused on the 3-Ds, De-Carbonization and the transition to renewable energy, De-Centralization of energy resources and infrastructure, and Digitalization, with smart systems, grids, and substation modernization. In addition, the need to integrate the IT & OT networks puts the pressure on to increase efficiencies - but it also opens and enables a world of possibilities for the next-generation Utility, flexible to new Telco service offerings and revenue streams.

Setting Up Efficient Kubernetes Environments for Developers

Kubernetes has transformed how developers build, test, and deploy applications, providing a consistent platform for managing containerized workloads. Setting up efficient Kubernetes clusters is crucial for streamlining the development process, reducing time-to-market, and ensuring that applications run reliably from development to production.

MFA Configuration: How Automation Lets You Configure & Enforce MFA Compliance at Scale

You probably used multi-factor authentication (MFA) to access the device you’re using right now. Maybe your phone scanned your face or fingerprint to unlock. Maybe you got a text with a verification code while logging into your work browser profile. Configuring MFA is a go-to measure for system hardening, but MFA enforcement can get unruly, especially at the scale required by enterprise IT.

Introducing KlaudiaAI: Redefining Kubernetes Troubleshooting with the Power of AI

For years, AI in operations was plagued by noise—overwhelming alerts, false positives, and a lack of actionable insights. The tools available promised much, but often delivered little, leading to a loss of trust. However, with the groundbreaking work by platforms like OpenAI and the emergence of trustworthy AI tools like Copilot, the potential of AI in operations has never been nearer and clearer.
