So you need to add microcontrollers to your fleet: now what?

Jun 18, 2026 By Jonathan Beri In Canonical
Your Ubuntu Core fleet is running beautifully. OTA updates roll out in minutes. Every device is strictly confined, cryptographically attested, and carrying a 10 to 15 year long term support (LTS) commitment. The operational team sleeps soundly. Then the product roadmap meeting happens. The industrial floor needs vibration sensors on every motor. The smart building needs temperature nodes in every room. The cold chain system requires dozens of low-power Bluetooth tags. And someone just said the words.

Only ONE company has all of DevSecOps - and it's not who you think

Jun 18, 2026 By Harness In Harness
Harness has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for DevSecOps Platforms — for the third year in a row. Here's what stands out: almost every company in the Leaders quadrant is missing a piece. Some have Dev, some have Ops, but not the security. Harness is the one platform that brings Dev, Sec, AND Ops together — with AI built in. AI is changing how software gets built: more code, more automation, more agents — but also more complexity. Teams need delivery, security, testing, reliability, and cost in one place. That's what we're building every day.

How to build a secure AI agent sandbox with relaxAI and Claude Code

Jun 18, 2026 By Civo In Civo
AI agents are powerful. They're also unpredictable, non-deterministic, and capable of doing things you didn't ask them to do, as the Rome Alibaba and Claude Mythos case studies make very clear. The answer isn't to avoid agentic AI. It's to run it properly. In this demo, Ben Norris, founding engineer at relaxAI, shows how to build a fully sandboxed AI agent environment from scratch, an ephemeral Civo VM provisioned via Terraform and GitHub Actions, locked down with egress policies, an unprivileged Linux user, and hard resource caps, running a Claude Code session pointed at the relaxAI API.

How to run an operational excellence review for software engineering

Jun 18, 2026 By Ganesh Datta In Cortex
Most engineering organizations already run something they call an operational review. It usually looks like a cousin of the quarterly business review: a deck assembled every few months, walked through team by team, anchored on whatever incidents happened to land in the previous quarter. By the time leadership sees the data, the systems it describes have moved on and the next set of risks is already accumulating in the gap.

Klaudia Under the Hood: How We Built an AI SRE That Actually Earns Trust

Jun 18, 2026 By Asaf Savich In Komodor
In reliability engineering, being ‘mostly right’ is a liability. An AI SRE that sometimes misses the root cause or gives a confident, wrong answer at 2:17 AM has no place in an enterprise cloud environment. In this context, silence is better than noise. That’s the bar Klaudia is built to clear: genuine reliability that you can trust in production. The kind of reliability that earns a place alongside your best engineers. Getting there requires more than just a capable model.

Operational excellence (OpEx) reviews: the weekly meeting that actually changes behavior

Jun 18, 2026 By Cortex | Engineering Operations Platform In Cortex
Cortex co-founder and CTO Ganesh Datta sits down with Shawn Burke, Distinguished Engineer at Cortex, to explore what separates an operational excellence review that drives real engineering behavior from one that produces great conversation and nothing else. Shawn draws on experience from SoFi, Uber, and Microsoft to explain why these reviews so often fail—and how to build a process that actually sticks.

7 Best AI Search Tools Across Slack, Google Drive, and GitHub That Flag Stale Docs

7 Best AI Search Tools Across Slack, Google Drive, and GitHub That Flag Stale Docs

Jun 18, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
An authoritative-looking snippet can be poisonous if it's two versions behind. A Gartner CX survey found that 56 percent of users complain about outdated documentation, and a 2026 Support Ops study attributes nearly 40 percent of tickets to articles that are stale or unclear. If a deployment script changes yet the old README still ranks first in Slack, you can lose an afternoon chasing errors. Multiply that across every lapsed policy, pricing deck, or support macro, and productivity shrinks-along with audit scores and customer trust.

Lock-in is not theoretical: What UK organizations told us about cloud exit barriers

Jun 17, 2026 By Mark Boost In Civo
For years, vendor lock-in has been discussed as a theoretical risk. A concern to acknowledge in architecture reviews. A box to tick in compliance frameworks. A future problem that might need addressing. Our latest research reveals something more urgent. For UK organizations, lock-in isn't theoretical anymore. It's structural. It's measurable. And it's preventing organizations from acting on their own strategic priorities.
