Is your network holding your business back? Learn the warning signs that tell you it’s time for an upgrade before it hits your bottom line. Most network failures don’t just happen overnight, but are the result of warning signs that went unnoticed or ignored. The “if it’s not broken, don’t fix it” mindset is one of the most common and costly mistakes in network management.

If you are a software developer or engineer, you most likely have to do code review. At the bare minimum, you probably have had your pull requests reviewed. If you haven’t, then you are probably curious about how the rest of the world deals with the process. In general, we use code review to make sure we are shipping high quality code that does what it’s supposed to and is easy to maintain. That’s the goal, at least. In practice, code review can get messy.

We recently announced the Limited Availability (LA) launch of Aiven Apps, which lets teams define, run, and scale production-ready, real-time applications using container and Compose-based workflows they already know. It provides a managed, stateless runtime that runs directly inside your data perimeter, letting you deploy applications alongside open-source data services like PostgreSQL and Apache Kafka.

Kosli recently released kosli evaluate trail, a command that evaluates selected attestations in a Kosli trail against a Rego policy file. We used it to build a complete and useful solution for tracking Snyk container vulnerabilities for cyber-dojo (an open-sourced browser based online tool for practising TDD which Kosli uses for demos). You’ll read about what we built, why we built it, how we tested it, and specifically.

Claude Mythos may be wrapped in hype, but the core signal is real: AI is making vulnerability discovery much faster, which means defenders have less time than ever to patch and enforce secure configurations. The real risk isn’t just smarter models, it’s that security teams will face a flood of new findings while the window between disclosure and exploitation keeps shrinking.

There's a conversation I keep having with our design partners at incident.io. It starts when I ask "what are you doing with AI internally?" and lands in a similar place every time. The shape of how their engineering teams work is changing fast. Not in vague "AI is transforming everything" ways, but in concrete, repeatable patterns. Different companies are building the same things. The frontier teams are six to twelve months ahead of the average, and they're describing the same future.

AI observability covers performance, quality, reliability, safety, and cost. Most tools handle the first four. Here's what each pillar means, which tools cover which, and why cost is the dimension enterprises keep missing.

We’ve been building an AI agent that can take a production bug, find the root cause in captured traffic, write a fix, and validate it before a human reviews it. We call it Agent Factory. Last week we ran it on ourselves, against a real bug in our own production service. The first thing we did was get the workflow wrong.

This is Part 2 of the AI Software Factory series. In Part 1, we established that the Agile methodology is buckling under the weight of “elastic code.” When AI agents can generate functionality in seconds, two-week sprints and manual task management become organizational bottlenecks. We introduced the concept of the AI Software Factory: a shift from managing human tasks to managing business intent through a “Funnel of Increasing Trust.” But a factory requires infrastructure.
