Scaling Android development without scaling hardware

Sep 23, 2026 By Bertrand Boisseau In Canonical
How shared Android capacity helps engineering teams move beyond fixed device labs In the first blog of this series, we discussed how programmable Android environments can replace manual device preparation with a repeatable lifecycle. A workflow requests an environment with a predefined configuration, executes the required task, collects the results, and releases the resources once the work is completed. Automation enables a team to create a single Android environment reliably.

CT alerts: know when someone gets a certificate for your domains

Sep 23, 2026 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit
A couple days ago, I told you how a spammer got a certificate for dev-docs.trackjs.com, and that we only found out because Google emailed us. Google knew because the spammer claimed the hostname in Search Console. An attacker running a phishing page wouldn’t have done that, but they would still need a certificate. Every publicly trusted certificate gets written to a public log, and we track that log in our database. We just weren’t watching it. Now we are, and you can too.

Civo Navigate London 2026 Wrap-Up

Sep 23, 2026 By Emma De Guzman In Civo
This week marks the end of our fourth Civo Navigate London event, and it feels like a good moment to say that this one had a slightly different energy from the ones before it. Over the past four years, we have hosted 10 Civo Navigate events across North America, India, and Europe, and each one has taught us something new about what this community actually wants from a day like this. London 2026 was no exception, and I think this year's lineup pushed that a little further than usual.

Stop capping your best people.

Sep 23, 2026 By Scott Castle In CloudZero
Somewhere in your company, a team is three weeks into the AI project that’s going to matter. Somewhere else, a support pilot from the spring is still summarizing every ticket with a frontier model, and nobody has looked at it since it started working. On the invoice they’re identical, and the company has two moves: leave everything open, which funds the waste, or cap everyone, which kills the bet.

AI finally plans like every other line in my budget

Sep 23, 2026 By Dan Carducci In CloudZero
September is associated with football, foliage, flannel and, for some, the Financial Plan. As we put pen to paper (or agents to harnesses), there’s a few core elements that have always driven the P&L outlook for the following year: rep productivity and new product releases driving new sales, expansion and contraction against the install base, employee roster changes, and discretionary spend.

Synthetic Monitoring Is Broken. Your Production Traffic Can Fix It.

Sep 22, 2026 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale
Synthetic monitoring has been a critical part of application reliability for years. It gives engineering and operations teams a way to proactively test applications, APIs, and critical customer journeys before users encounter problems. But there is a fundamental limitation with the traditional approach: Someone has to create the tests. As applications become more distributed and customer journeys become more complex, organizations can end up maintaining hundreds or even thousands of synthetic scripts. Every new feature, API, dependency, or change to a customer journey can require another update.
