What is The Spark? Why Civo is building Britain's sovereign AI infrastructure

Oct 15, 2026 By Mark Boost In Civo
Every age has had its spark, the moment an idea stops being an idea and becomes something a whole country can build on. Steam, electricity and the web all began with people who could see what was possible, but each one only changed the world once someone built the infrastructure to make it real. Britain has never been short of those people. Our universities produce world-leading AI research, our engineers are among the best anywhere, and our founders build companies the rest of the world wants to buy.

Introducing Aiven AI Gateway

Oct 15, 2026 By Filip Yonov | In Aiven
At home I run fully automated coding loops on a few side projects. They use more than 100-million tokens a day. At Claude Opus 5.5 prices, that costs more than $5,300 a month. For hobby projects. The same usage on DeepSeek V4.1 Flash cost about $330 a month, one sixteenth of the price. If we want to keep scaling how much we use AI, most of those tokens have to run on open models, period.

Coverage-first or cost-first: two ways to automatically apply Adaptive Metrics' recommendations

Oct 15, 2026 By Arun Ulagappan In Grafana
Adaptive Metrics , which is part of the Adaptive Telemetry suite, looks at how your metrics are actually used and recommends how much detail you should keep for each metric. This helps you cut costs while still retaining the data you actually need. Last year we added auto-apply capabilities that let you implement those recommendations automatically, but only with coverage-first behavior, maximizing coverage of whatever you're querying.

DNS Monitoring: What to Track and Where to Watch It From

Oct 15, 2026 By Ramya Shah In Motadata
DNS monitoring asks your name servers the same question on a timer and checks the answer that comes back. Most teams aim it at their public domain and stop there. That covers half the problem. Your public domain and your internal resolver fail in different ways. A check from outside the building never sees the second one. In this blog, you'll see: By the end you'll know which half of your DNS nobody is watching. A DNS check sends a query and reads the reply. The reply can fail three ways.
