2025 was the year that RISC-V readiness gave way to RISC-V adoption. It’s been quite a journey. What began years ago as early architectural exploration and enablement has matured into real silicon, systems, and deployments. In particular, RVA23 provides a stable and predictable baseline we can align on with our wider ecosystem of partners. At Canonical, we’re committed to making RISC-V a viable option for anyone who wishes to adopt it.

Can you create an audit trail for what your AI agent actually did, and enforce rules about what it was allowed to do? Here’s what I found after spending a session wiring the two tools together.

Whether you’re in finance or engineering, you know keeping your customers happy is the key to success. That means, your SaaS product or service needs to be available, reliable, and cost-effective virtually all the time. On that note, you can determine how stable and high-performing your service is depending on whether you use On-Demand or Spot Instances. Pricing, capacity, and flexibility will also vary depending on which of the two instances you choose.

The Netdata Cloud MCP Server is now available — giving AI agents and assistants direct access to your Netdata through a single endpoint at app.netdata.cloud/api/v1/mcp.

At Harness, we’re committed to helping teams build and deliver software that doesn’t just work – it thrives under pressure, scales reliably, and recovers swiftly from the unexpected. Today, we’re taking the next step in that mission by evolving our Chaos Engineering module into Resilience Testing. This evolution reflects how reliability is tested in practice today.

Engineering metrics tools won’t solve problems if there isn’t communication about expectations in place. Learn how leaders are connecting engineering metrics with business outcomes. Engineering organizations are waking up to something that used to be optional: measurement. Not vanity dashboards. Not a quarterly “engineering metrics review” that no one prepares for. Real measurement that connects delivery speed, quality, and reliability to business outcomes and decision-making.

The average cost of a security breach reached nearly $4.4 million in 2025, according to the publication Cost of Data Breach Report. To proactively address this substantial financial and security risk, Infobip, a global cloud communications platform, used HAProxy Enterprise to implement a security and uptime framework that is both highly modular and highly performant.

An escalation policy is the route an incident takes after it triggers. It lays out who gets alerted first and sets a wait time. If nobody responds, it moves the incident forward to the next person. The word “escalation” is worth pausing on. When an incident triggers and the first person doesn’t respond, the incident doesn’t sit and wait. It moves to the next person and keeps moving until someone picks it up. That forward movement is the escalation.
