When Anyone Can Build Software, Deployment Governance Is What Keeps It Safe

This is Post 2 of The Governance Gap series. Post 1, "The New Software Creator," established that the most significant shift from AI isn't developer speed - it's that the population of builders has fundamentally expanded. Something quiet happened in most engineering organizations over the last 18 months.

What is digital transformation and why it is important?

A digital transformation can help a business thrive. Developing a strong technology stack that works for your business is essential for growth. Investing in a digital transformation means finding what works for your business and ensuring the best operations through your digital tools.

How to Evaluate an Agentic Process Automation Platform in 2026

Agentic AI has moved quickly from experimentation to enterprise planning. IT leaders are no longer asking whether AI agents can summarize tickets; they’re asking a more important question: Can agentic AI actually complete work consistently and measurably? That is where agentic process automation becomes critical.

How to enable post-quantum cryptography and TLS termination with HAProxy

Every time a client connects to your server, a small negotiation happens before a single byte of application data moves. That negotiation, the TLS handshake, is what makes encrypted web traffic possible. It's also at risk of being recorded. Not the content of your sessions, but the handshake itself. And that's enough. A well-resourced attacker doesn't need to break your encryption today.

Is your data truly yours? Why data sovereignty in India matters more than ever

As businesses in India embrace the cloud, a critical question looms: Where does your data really live, and who controls it? India's cloud market is estimated at USD 26.43 billion in 2026, growing at 21% annually with projections reaching USD 68.82 billion by 2031. This rapid expansion underscores the strategic importance of cloud infrastructure in the country, but with growth comes growing urgency.

A 'new' space for our voice

Today I’m really excited to share the new look of our blog. Spike has had this blog for a while. Early on, it was just me and I wrote about the decisions I was making as we built Spike. Then we slowly started growing and wrote about incidents, response, escalations, on-calls and even many guides. It’s safe to say now that we are doubling down on this space! With the new design, we have intentionally kept it minimal and put the content first.

Build Custom Field Templates for Application Assessments

Modernization assessments move faster when the structure is already in place. Instead of recreating custom fields, interview questions, and assessment workflows for every customer, you can use a custom field template to standardize how data is collected from the start. This guide shows you how to create a reusable Tidal Accelerator custom field template using Node.js and the Tidal API, so your assessments are easier to repeat, compare, and scale. So you’re starting a modernization practice.

How to Set Up Claude Code with CircleCI MCP Server (Full Demo)

AI agents write code fast, but without a validation layer, fast just means faster bugs. In this video, we connect Claude Code to the CircleCI MCP server so Claude can trigger pipelines, pull build failures into context, and iterate until everything is green. No context switching. No copy-pasting logs.

They stopped shipping features for half a year, now they're thriving

When incidents pile up fast enough, every part of the company bleeds: support is fielding angry customers, AEs are on apology calls, and engineering is burning cycles on retrospectives instead of shipping. For Eran Kampf (VP of Engineering at Twingate, Co-founder Monday.com) where the product is the network, that was the moment he made a call most engineering leaders won't: stop all feature work for a quarter and fix reliability.
