AWS VPC Peering Vs. Transit Gateway: Which To Choose And Why [2026]

VPC peering can be simple and cost-effective in smaller setups. For growing multi-account platforms, Transit Gateway can offer predictable structure and centralized governance. But that’s not all. AWS VPC peering connects two VPCs directly with no hourly fee — simple and cost-effective at small scale, but it creates an unmanageable mesh as your VPC count grows.

Build Numbers That Actually Make Sense: Branch-Scoped Sequence IDs in Harness CI | Harness Blog

You're tagging Docker images with build numbers. -Build is your latest production release on main. A developer pushes a hotfix to release-v2.1, that run becomes build. -Another merges to develop, build. A week later someone asks: "What build number are we on for production?" You check the registry. -You see,,, on main. The numbers in between? Scattered across feature branches that may never ship. Your build numbers have stopped telling a useful story.

How to Plan a Successful CI/CD Migration Without Disrupting Developers | Harness Blog

Modern engineering teams run on CI/CD. It’s where pull requests get validated, artifacts get produced, and releases get promoted to production. That also makes CI/CD migration very risky because you're not just moving a "tool"; you're moving the workflow that developers use dozens or hundreds of times a day. The good news: disruption is optional.

A new Host Map for modern infrastructure

A host map is a visual representation of your infrastructure that displays hosts and related resources such as clusters, pods, and containers in a single, interactive view. We introduced the Datadog Host Map more than a decade ago to help you “know thy infrastructure” and answer critical questions: Does everything look healthy? Has anything changed? Does the shape of my environment match what I expect?

CertKit Keystore: Private keys that never leave your infrastructure

When you use CertKit, your private keys live in CertKit’s database, encrypted at rest. We’ve written about why the actual risk is smaller than it sounds. But some organizations have policies that prohibit storing private keys with any third party, regardless of how they’re protected. That policy isn’t going away. The Local Keystore enables those organizations to use CertKit and still keep their keys local.
