Demystifying WMI Permissions
Network administrators are always seeking to gain a deeper understanding of their Windows-based environments. Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) enables their network monitoring tools to access system information, manage configurations and automate tasks. It provides a vital role in network monitoring by providing a standardized interface for querying and controlling system components. A complex set of permissions governs WMI access.
Clarity in the Dojo: The power of the Summary Agent
In the dojo, not every role is about throwing punches. Some roles are about awareness, the unmistakable voice that tells the fighter when to move, where the strike is coming from, and why the opponent matters. That’s the role of the Summary Agent in Sumo Logic Dojo AI. Unlike a traditional agent, it doesn’t launch queries or carry out actions on its own. Its purpose is to narrate, not act. In doing so, it becomes the foundation for every other decision in the dojo.

Introducing The Next Phase Of Synthetic Monitoring: Playwright Check Suites
We've been running Playwright in production since the beginning. Today, we're going all in. When we first launched Browser Checks with Playwright support, we proved something critical: the most popular test automation framework since Selenium isn't just for testing—it's the foundation of modern production monitoring. But that was just the beginning. Today, we're announcing Playwright Check Suites—our bet on the future of monitoring and the most significant evolution in Checkly's history.
Why do you only use Playwright for pre-release testing and not for production monitoring, too?
We've been running Playwright in production for years. Today, we, at Checkly, are going all in with Playwright Check Suites. Playwright Check Suites is our latest step towards uniting testing and monitoring into a single workflow. It's our biggest advancement yet! Here's why this matters: We're not adapting Playwright anymore. We're running it natively in production with full `playwright.config` support, complete custom dependency control, and support for every tag, spec, or configuration.
We've refreshed and expanded the StatusGator Help Center

Latency & Leadership with Mehdi Daoudi
Leadership is about more than telling people what to do. It’s about inspiring belief in your vision for the future. Sometimes there’s a delay between the time you share the vision and when the rest of the team “gets it”. The Latency & Leadership series hopes to shorten that lag time by creating a platform for leaders in the tech space to share their ideas, their passion, and their vision.
