8 Best Wireless Network Solutions to Monitor Wi-Fi in 2026

If your Wi-Fi keeps slowing down or dropping connections, checking whether your access points are online won't tell you much. You need to know what's causing the problem, whether it's weak signal strength, overloaded access points, or too many connected devices. Wireless network monitoring tools help you track these issues, monitor access point health, and spot problems before they affect more users.

Deploying Apache Airflow on Aiven Runtime

When we first introduced people to Aiven Runtime, before it even had that name, we kept getting asked: "Can we schedule things?" If you come from a Unix background, that tends to cause a reflexive reach for the cron tool, which provides basic scheduling at fixed intervals. But if you've spent more time with distributed software, you're more likely to think of Apache Airflow, which can do a lot more (although, yes, you can use Airflow to schedule tasks at fixed intervals if you want).

Dashboard Library: why some dashboards arrive ticked and others don't

Open the Dashboard Library on a Logs stack that already receives Nginx logs and a few cards come up ticked with a green Data detected badge. Others in the same pack sit there unticked. That isn't random. Before it shows you anything, the Library checks what your stack actually holds and pre-selects only the dashboards it expects to fill.

What's new in Papertrail: Q3 2026

Q3 was a big quarter for Papertrail. You can now ask questions about your logs in plain English, explore structured logs by field, inspect any single log event in detail, and archive to your own S3 bucket with a setup that keeps you in control of access. We also shipped a round of smaller improvements that make sending logs and searching them faster and smoother. Here is a quick overview. The two Preview features have their own deep-dive articles, linked below.

Evaluate AI models for observability: o11y-bench joins Fireworks' Specialized Intelligence Index and reaches v1.1

When evaluating AI models for observability, generating a plausible query or explanation isn't enough. Teams need to know whether an agent's conclusions are supported by telemetry, whether its changes to dashboards actually work, and whether it can deliver reliable results consistently. This is why we built o11y-bench, Grafana Labs' open benchmark for evaluating AI models on observability and SRE tasks. And today, we're excited to share two updates.

Seedance 2.5 API Integration: A Practical Guide for Developers

A Seedance 2.5 integration has two distinct operations: create a video task, then read that task until it reaches a terminal state. Treating generation as an ordinary request that immediately returns a finished file is the first design mistake to avoid. This guide uses SeedRouter's documented Seedance 2.5 contract. The request shapes were checked on October 22, 2026. The examples explain submission and polling; they do not claim a paid generation was executed for this article.

Machine Learning Applications That Revolutionize IOP Scottsdale Practices

In the realm of Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), machine learning is reshaping how facilities such as those in Scottsdale operate. By integrating advanced algorithms and data-driven techniques, these programs are enhancing patient care, optimizing operational efficiency, and improving treatment outcomes. This article explores the transformative applications of machine learning within Iop Scottsdale, highlighting its potential to revolutionize practices and benefit both patients and providers alike.

Commercial Fleet Wraps as an Operations Project: Planning, Proofing, and Rollout

A fleet manager once described her first wrap project like this: the design was approved on a Tuesday, and on Wednesday morning she discovered that three of the vans scheduled for installation were out on emergency calls. Nothing was wrong with the artwork. The trouble was that the project had been treated as a graphics task instead of a scheduling one, and the calendar caught up with it.
