Highlights from Oracle AI World 2026

Oracle AI World 2026 brought customers and partners to Las Vegas to explore how AI can support their existing business systems. At the event, Datadog participated in a session with Peloton Consulting Group and hosted a booth covering observability across Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications, Oracle Database, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

GitHub's AI Coding Boom Exposes a Bigger Security Problem

GitHub's AI coding boom is exposing a major problem in software security. As AI coding agents generate more code and developers push commits faster than ever, can traditional DevSecOps and shift-left security practices keep up? In this episode of ShipTalk, cybersecurity leader Jake Bernardes breaks down GitHub Universe's AI coding trends and argues that shift-left security is dead in the age of AI-generated code.

We Rebuilt Harness for Agents: Introducing a New Platform Experience

Hundreds of millions of deployments taught us what delivery takes. The new platform experience applies it to a world where agents do the work. A year ago, the question was whether agents could write code. That question is settled. The new question is whether they can ship it. Building an agent is easy. Running one inside a real delivery process is not. Real work runs through pipelines, approvals, data, and quality gates. Delivery has always been designed around the people doing the work.

The Truth About End-to-End Testing Explained #softwaretesting #endtoendtesting #devops #qualitytest

End-to-end (E2E) testing brings your entire system together in a staging or UAT environment to test real user paths and ensure core functions work as expected. However, because E2E tests are non-comprehensive and miss edge cases, they must be combined with other testing methodologies. Learn more: speedscale.com.

Automatic Release Readiness Scorecards

Speedscale’s automatic release readiness scorecard grades a completed replay against the release rules in its test configuration. It returns a Ready or Not ready verdict, letter grades for ten metric families, a weighted score and a confidence factor. This feature provides a concrete and automatic baseline for whether new releases are ready for production. The underlying test runs recorded traffic against a build, with dependencies mocked from the recording.

How to Use Automatic Release Readiness Scorecards

This guide uses Speedscale’s readiness scorecard to compare three builds of a Spring Cloud Gateway service on Kubernetes. It covers a regression that still meets the test’s pass-rate goal, a GET-only retry evaluated under injected dependency failures, and a CI check that requires a Ready verdict. The example uses api-gateway from the banking demo’s readiness-demo branch. The three image tags identify distinct builds.

Accelerate troubleshooting with Monitor AI Insight

Monitoring used to mean checking that your dashboards looked fine and starting to troubleshoot when something broke. That approach is outdated. Today, the health of your applications directly affects your business. A slow checkout page, a lagging database, or an unresponsive server costs you customers, revenue, and trust. A problem that once took hours to identify and fix is no longer acceptable. This is where AIOps comes in.

Google's Stock Drop Reveals What AI Is Missing

Google just reported $51.4 billion in quarterly capital spending. Anthropic has filed for an IPO. And GitHub's AI coding explosion is raising serious questions about software security. Is the AI boom creating real business value, or are we heading toward an AI bubble correction? In this episode of ShipTalk, Adam Arellano and Martin Reynolds are joined by cybersecurity expert Jake Bernardes, CSO at Gambit, to break down three major developments reshaping artificial intelligence, software development, and cybersecurity.

LogicMonitor Elevate 2026 Keynote: Trusting AI to Act

LogicMonitor Elevate 2026 keynote: what it takes to trust AI to act in IT operations. Built for IT ops leaders, SREs, and MSPs. The Chicago opening keynote covers moving beyond the alert loop, where people have acted as the integration layer between tools. IT teams are automating incident response by giving AI context, clear guardrails, and governance, with people accountable and in control. @globalfoundries CIO Vishal Mehra shares how his team's doing it.

Good Agents Need Good Managers: What We Heard at Innovation Week

I used to joke that I got my best parenting ideas from management books, and my best management ideas from parenting books. Now, I'm extending it to agents. Hear me out. When you're teaching a teen how to drive, you don't hand them the car keys on day one. You start in an empty parking lot. You ride along and ask them to talk through what they're doing.
