Turn off your GPU to fix GitKraken on WSL (and three other things support is fielding this week)

Every so often we sit down with someone from our support team and turn their week into a blog post. This time, Roberto walks us through four things generating tickets right now: an upcoming Microsoft authentication change, how AI credit pools actually work, multi-account support in Kepler, and a one-line fix for laggy GitKraken on Linux or WSL. Here’s what’s changing and what to do about it.

Best LLM gateways in 2026: 30+ AI gateways compared on cost control

An LLM gateway is a proxy that sits between your applications and model providers, handling routing, failover, caching, and cost controls through one API. The strongest picks in 2026: LiteLLM for self-hosted control, OpenRouter for instant multi-model access, Portkey for managed governance, and Bifrost for production-scale throughput. Enterprises spent $37 billion on generative AI in 2025, a 3.2x jump in one year, per Menlo Ventures.

Why engineers ignore cloud costs, and how AI Cost Management Agents fix it

Engineers ignore cloud costs because of broken feedback loops, not apathy. Learn what AI cost management is, why AEO matters more than ever, and how a cost management agent embeds accountability directly into engineering workflows. Engineers ignore cloud costs because cost data arrives too late and too disconnected from their workflow to act on.

Harness Named a Leader in SecureIQLab's Cloud WAAP v5.0 CyberRisk Validation Report

In the August 2026 SecureIQLab Cloud WAAP v5.0 CyberRisk Validation Comparative Report, Harness Web Application & API Protection (WAAP) was named a Leader. The analysis involves actual lab testing across 12 leading Cloud WAAP vendors and shows scores for each criterion evaluated — and we're thrilled to be one of just six vendors to earn Leader status, and one of only five to meet both of SecureIQLab's "Secure by Design" and "Secure by Default" criteria.

Moving Your Business Website: How to Avoid Email and Hosting Disruption

Website migration from one host to another is more than copying a few files to another server. A website might depend on databases, e-mail accounts, DNS records, SSL certificates, sub-domains, and other external applications that should continue to function after migration. Proper planning ensures the safety of the information and eliminates any risk of losing access to emails or having people visit a partially transferred website. This can be achieved by preparing the new hosting in advance.

Stop Building Your Own Agent Infrastructure. Meet Agent Tasks

Agent Tasks let you run one-time or scheduled AI agents on your own infrastructure, with network guardrails, centralized MCP access and custom agent environment. Alessandro leads product at Qovery. He drives the changelog, roadmap, and product strategy - turning customer feedback into platform capabilities.

Run More Internal Hackathons

Internal hackathons are a powerful way to let your teams explore ideas and work together on something fun besides the same old stuff for work. Maybe they want to build something brand new, maybe they want to knock out things that are on the backlog that never get prioritized, or maybe they want to work on something fun but completely unrelated to work.

Every Deployment Platform Is Pivoting to AI. Day 2 Operations Aren't Going Anywhere

Over the summer, Fly.io founder Kurt Mackey announced a complete pivot for the company toward "Computers for Agents", which are ephemeral virtual machines (called Sprites) optimized for AI coding workflows. He was refreshingly explicit about what this means: they are not trying to do both traditional application hosting and AI agent compute. They are choosing one over the other. This is a completely rational bet on the future of developer tooling.

Data Center Capacity Planning Anxiety is Rising in 2026. How DCIM Can Help.

Data center capacity planning concerns are growing. The Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey 2026 reveals that the share of data center managers and operators who are at least somewhat concerned about forecasting future capacity requirements has risen from 68% in 2024 to 76% in 2026. Data center professionals are caught between accelerating business demands, aggressive artificial intelligence rollouts, higher-density GPU clusters, and intense scrutiny over power and cooling.
