The Five Levels of the Enterprise AI Software Factory

Scroll LinkedIn for ten minutes and you'd think every engineering organization already runs an autonomous SDLC, with agents writing, reviewing, and shipping code while humans watch. Inside large enterprises, the picture looks different. Coding agents there have to work around sensitive customer data, recurring compliance audits, a larger attack surface, downtime that costs millions, and a CFO who wants to know what last year's token spend bought.

What is Spotify Backstage?

Summary Spotify Backstage is a free, open-source framework for building internal developer portals, with a software catalog, templates, TechDocs, and a large plugin ecosystem. It’s a strong fit if you have a dedicated platform team that wants to build and run its own portal. If you want a current catalog, enforced standards, and org-level reporting without maintaining the infrastructure, a managed platform like Cortex is the better fit.

Capacity Planning Under Constraints: An Off-Grid Analogy for Edge Deployments

When laptops, mobile hotspots, lighting, portable power stations, and other electronics all need to operate at an off-grid campsite, the question is no longer simply how many devices were packed. It is how much workload a limited pool of resources can support. From a capacity-planning perspective, this makes an off-grid campsite a useful analogy for an edge deployment: power is limited, connectivity is unreliable, physical space is constrained, and every component has to be deployed again on arrival.

The 5 levels of the AI software factory for enterprises | EVOLVE 2026 keynote

Everyone online seems to have a fully autonomous SDLC. Most enterprises are still at level 3, and they'll be there for years. In the EVOLVE 2026 opening keynote, Cortex co-founders Anish Dhar (CEO) and Ganesh Datta (CTO) lay out a practical maturity model for getting from AI coding agents to an AI software factory without blowing up cost, quality, or security along the way. They've watched hundreds of engineering orgs adopt AI over the last two years. This talk distills what separated the successful rollouts from the chaotic ones.

AI Investigation for ITOps: Faster Root Cause with Edwin AI

AI investigation for IT operations finds the likely root cause of an incident and shows the evidence behind it. This video covers how deep AI investigation works for ITOps, SRE, and platform engineering teams using LogicMonitor's Edwin AI. Engineers lose time stitching together alerts, logs, and recent changes after an alert fires. Deep AI investigation hands that first pass to AI agents, so your team starts closer to the fix. Edwin AI, LogicMonitor's AI agent for ITOps, correlates alerts, identifies root causes, and recommends remediation.

Companies Are Ripping Citrix Devices Offline. Here's Why

Citrix NetScaler customers were pulling devices offline as attackers moved faster than the traditional patch and response cycle. What happens when cyberattacks move faster than security teams can react? In this episode of ShipTalk, Martin Reynolds and Adam Arellano are joined by Starr Brown, Director of Open Source Projects at OWASP, to break down the latest Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway security vulnerabilities, active exploitation, and the rapidly shrinking window between vulnerability discovery and attack.
