Datadog Disaster Recovery mitigates cloud provider outages

Jul 30, 2025 By Michael Richey In Datadog

A loss in infrastructure and applications observability can leave SRE and DevOps teams without insight into the real-time state of their production systems, causing them to temporarily pause code deployments and limit their ability to troubleshoot issues or respond to critical alerts. In modern cloud environments, where services are distributed and deeply interconnected, this lack of visibility can escalate quickly.

The Network Impact on Job Completion Time in AI Model Training

Jul 30, 2025 By Phil Gervasi In Kentik

In large-scale AI model training, network performance is no longer a supporting actor — it’s center stage. Job Completion Time (JCT), the key metric for measuring training efficiency, is heavily influenced by the network interconnecting thousands of GPUs. In this post, learn why JCT matters, how microbursts and GPU synchronization delays inflate it, and how platforms like Kentik give network engineers the visibility and intelligence they need to keep training jobs on schedule.

From Anomaly to Action: ScienceLogic's Role in Accelerating Zero Trust Response

Jul 30, 2025 By ScienceLogic In ScienceLogic

In today’s threat landscape, cyber incidents unfold in seconds, not days. Federal agencies and critical infrastructure operators no longer have the luxury of slow detection or manual triage. As Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) becomes the new security standard, one principle stands above all: time is risk. The faster an organization can detect, diagnose, and respond to anomalous activity, the greater its resilience. ScienceLogic plays a critical role in making that speed possible.

AIOps for SAP: From Ground to Cloud

Jul 29, 2025 By Avantra Team In Avantra

Anyone working in the SAP market in 2025 is aware of two big topics: migration to cloud-based ERP and the end of many long-used tools for managing SAP operations including Focused Run, Landscape Manager and Solution Manager.

Disposable Code Is Here to Stay, but Durable Code Is What Runs the World

Jul 29, 2025 By Charity Majors In Honeycomb

Every day I seem to run into yet another post with someone solemnly opining that “writing code has never been the hardest part of software engineering. And hey, that’s smashing. As an engineer from the ops/infra/SRE side of the house, I feel like I’ve been saying this my whole career. (Is there anything more satisfying than being proven right in public? Not in my book.) So, which is it?

Why Your Loki Metrics Are Disappearing (And How to Fix It)

Jul 29, 2025 By Faiz Shaikh In Last9
