New in LightMesh: Cisco Meraki Integration

Some features start on a roadmap. Others start with a recurring customer request: Can LightMesh connect to Meraki? That request kept coming up. Now the answer is yes. LightMesh supports Meraki sites with multiple VLANs or a single LAN through the new cloud integration for Cisco Meraki. Appliance addressing from Dashboard syncs into LightMesh as subnets (with VLAN ID when Meraki provides one), and device or client LAN IPs only when they fall inside those CIDRs.

Token-based pricing: how AI usage billing works (2026)

Token-based pricing charges for AI by the volume of text a model processes, metered separately for input tokens (what you send) and output tokens (what the model returns). As of 2026, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google all bill their APIs this way, and the model is spreading into enterprise chat products. Bills scale with usage rather than seats.

Top 10 Managed Kubernetes Services

Kubernetes has become a standard foundation for modern containerized applications, but operating clusters still requires significant engineering work. In the CNCF’s 2025 annual cloud native survey, published in January 2026, 82% of container users reported running Kubernetes in production.

Open Sourcing Kubex's GPU Process Exporter: Gain Visibility in Your Shared GPUs

Table of Contents GPU sharing with NVIDIA hardware is becoming easier to adopt in Kubernetes but it hasn’t been easier to observe. Time-slicing lets multiple workloads share the same GPU. MPS allows CUDA workloads to execute concurrently. Schedulers like KAI make it easier to manage these shared environments. But sharing a GPU introduces a problem that is easy to underestimate.
