End-to-End Testing for Microservices: A 2025 Guide

Nov 30, 2025 By Alin Dobra In Bunnyshell
End-to-end testing has always been a double-edged sword - even more so in the world of microservices. On one hand, E2E tests are critical for validating that all services work together seamlessly in real user flows. On the other hand, many experts warn that heavy reliance on end-to-end testing in a microservices architecture can create a "distributed monolith," slowing down deployments and undermining the very agility microservices promise. There's truth to that: if done poorly, E2E tests can become brittle, flaky, and a bottleneck that reduces your deployment frequency.

VirtualMetric DataStream + Elasticsearch: A Smarter Way to Send Logs to Elastic

Nov 28, 2025 By VirtualMetric In VirtualMetric
Elasticsearch has long been the backbone of security analytics for organizations that need fast search, flexible dashboards, and scalable visibility across massive datasets. It powers everything from threat hunting to compliance reporting and real-time investigation. But anyone who has operated Elasticsearch at scale also knows a quiet truth: Elasticsearch is only as strong as the data you feed it. And getting clean, consistent, usable telemetry into Elastic is often the hardest part.

You can instrument Jenkins with OpenTelemetry using the official plugin and an OpenTelemetry Collector, then send the data to a backend like Last9 to understand where pipeline latency and failures actually originate. Jenkins provides job status and console logs, but it doesn't show how time is distributed across stages, agents, plugins, and external systems. OpenTelemetry fills that gap by emitting traces, metrics, and logs in a standard format that any OTLP-compatible backend can process.

How to Connect Salesforce to Tableau and Use Near-Real-Time Data Across Teams

Nov 26, 2025 By Dereck Mushingairi In Devart
The effectiveness of Tableau Salesforce integration depends on one decisive factor: the connector. While Tableau’s native connector is straightforward and offers quick access, it lacks support for complex joins, uses scheduled extracts for refreshes, and doesn’t extend to other BI or ETL platforms. To overcome these constraints, many organizations implement ODBC Drivers, which deliver SQL depth and governance designed for analytics at scale.

Caching in C#: A Comprehensive Technical Guide

Nov 26, 2025 By Dereck Mushingairi In Devart
In.NET systems, performance is often won or lost on the read path. Every extra database or API call adds latency and cost. Caching fixes that by keeping frequently used data, like product lists or lookups, close to your code, turning slow trips into instant reads. This is not theoretical, it works in the real world. Stack Overflow runs a two-tier cache (in-process + Redis), where a Redis hop takes only 0.2–0.5 ms and local memory reads are effectively instant.

Nov 20, 2025 By Anjali Udasi In Last9
You can cut your log costs by removing repetitive, low-value logs early and keeping only the parts that genuinely help you understand issues. Modern systems generate logs far faster than you expect. Even when your workload stays stable, infrastructure components, retries, and background workers continue producing a steady stream of repeated entries.

The most important question to ask in the build vs. buy debate

Nov 20, 2025 By Cristina Buenahora Bustamante In Cortex
Every growing engineering organization eventually faces the seemingly impossible decision between building a custom solution or buying one off the shelf. It’s a debate that often (and incorrectly) ends by choosing whichever option is less expensive. However, it’s become clear that solving the build vs. buy puzzle boils down to understanding what you want to be good at and whether your internal build is actually unique.

Better integration tests in Cursor using proxymock

Nov 19, 2025 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale
Cursor is fantastic at cranking out code changes. I recently used it to splice a brand-new downstream API call into one of our Go microservices, and the diff looked great. The unit tests finished before I lifted my coffee mug, yet I still had zero certainty the change would survive contact with real traffic. That gap is all about integration tests, so I paired Cursor with proxymock and the outerspace-go demo service to prove the behavior end to end.

It’s not that teams don’t care about costs — it’s that AWS billing data isn’t always easy to interpret. Finance wants accountability. Engineering wants visibility.

Cascading Failures Aren't Inevitable: Lessons from the AWS DNS Outage

Nov 12, 2025 By Alan Mon In Speedscale
AWS outages grab headlines because they affect millions, but the root cause often comes down to something invisible: DNS failures and cascading service dependencies. The complexity of modern cloud systems, combined with the advanced technology powering platforms like AWS, makes these outages particularly challenging to diagnose and resolve. The recent AWS outage proves one thing: you can't prevent every DNS issue, but you can create resilient architectures and prevent a single failure from taking down your entire service if you test for it.

Part 3: Building a Production-Grade Traffic Capture and Replay System

Nov 12, 2025 By Josh Thornton In Speedscale
At a previous company, we had over 100 microservices. I’d make what seemed like a simple change to one service and deploy it, only to discover it broke something completely unrelated. A change to the user service would break checkout. An update to notifications would break reporting. We spent more time fixing unexpected bugs than shipping features. The problem was our test scenarios were too simple.

OTel Updates: OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (OBI) Hits Alpha

Some parts of a system don’t lend themselves to quick instrumentation changes. You might have a production binary that hasn’t been rebuilt in years, or a stack made of several languages where each team manages telemetry differently. In those situations, getting consistent signals often means touching code you’d rather leave alone or coordinating updates across many services. OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (OBI) approaches this from the kernel side.

Teams spend millions on GPUs, yet models still stall, latency spikes unpredictably, and throughput flatlines at 20% of what spec sheets promise.

They dictate how efficiently data moves between databases, applications, and analytics tools. When overlooked, the entire stack slows down.

When Automation Finally Flows: Eliminating the Layers Between AI and IT

Enterprises like yours have sunk considerable time and money into trying to stitch together automation.

One tool tries to understand human language while another launches a workflow. Between them sits a tangle of mappings, connectors, triggers, and “custom glue” that only one engineer understands.
