Extending the Application Edge with F5 BIG-IP VE and Megaport Virtual Edge

Learn how F5 BIG-IP VE simplifies multicloud application delivery, security, and traffic management with MVE. As enterprise applications continue spreading across multiple clouds, the application edge is changing. A few years ago, application delivery was usually tied to a physical appliance sitting in a data center; today, applications are everywhere.

DevOps with Kubernetes: How to Reduce Cluster Toil and Complexity

Has Kubernetes made your DevOps team faster, or just busier? Most teams adopt it for speed and portability, and they get both. What arrives with it is a quieter cost: the operational weight of running the cluster day to day. That weight shows up in the manual work the platform was supposed to eliminate. A resource limit set incorrectly can waste infrastructure for months.

Trace without traces

A customer emailed on a Tuesday: checkout hung for ten seconds. I opened our tracing tool, punched in the time window, and got nothing. The trace was sampled out. We keep 1% of traces, like most shops with real traffic do. The one request that actually mattered was in the 99% we threw away. I spent twenty minutes admiring our observability stack before admitting it couldn’t answer a first-grader’s question: what happened to this person? Here’s what I know now.

AI Summary Agent in Turbo360

Handed over an Azure integration environment you've never seen before? Turbo360's AI Resource Summary agent gives any support operator or engineer an instant plain-English overview of what a resource is, how it behaves, and what to watch out for - without needing to ask the developers. In this demo: Great for: IT operations teams, MSP NOCs, cloud support engineers, and anyone responsible for running integration workloads they didn't build.

Prepare for the EU AI Act with Harness AI Security | Harness Blog

Harness AI Security provides a unified control plane for AI discovery, risk visibility, and runtime protection, helping organizations operationalize key requirements of the EU AI Act. Instead of relying on manual audits or fragmented tooling, teams get continuous insight into how AI systems are built, exposed, and used, along with the evidence needed to demonstrate compliance.

You Can't Detect What You Never Collect: Telemetry Coverage in the Agentic SOC

Every detection rule, every threat hunt, every AI agent you deploy rests on one silent assumption: that the data describing an attack actually reached your tools. When it doesn’t, nothing above it can save you, and no one gets an alert that the data was missing. Security teams invest heavily in the sharp end of the stack: detection content, threat intelligence, response playbooks, and increasingly, AI agents to triage and investigate at machine speed.

Why compliance audits keep slowing your engineering team down

If you've shipped software in fintech, healthcare, or government, you probably know the specific dread of an upcoming compliance audit. Not because the software isn't secure, but because proving it is requires reconstructing a paper trail for decisions that were made in Jira tickets, Slack threads, and pull request comments over the last six months. The software is fine. The documentation of the software is the problem.

Designing the New Workloads Dashboard for Rancher

To meet community demand, we have restored the global workload overview in Rancher Manager. After previously removing the feature due to performance constraints, we prioritized user feedback and rebuilt it from the ground up. Powered by a new, optimized API, the updated UI is both highly scalable and resilient.

How Liftoff cut costs by 87% and latency by 75% with HAProxy

Liftoff, a mobile advertising company, processes 1.5 trillion bid requests every month. Their platform touches 275 million unique devices daily across 150 geographies. At that scale, the proxy layer is a core part of the business. For years, Liftoff relied on a managed enterprise proxy vendor. It worked, until it didn’t.
