Introducing the Coralogix SLO Center
Are you struggling to define reliability targets? Teams nowadays are turning to Service Level Objectives (SLOs), reliability targets that can be used to define how much you can play around with your systems before users are affected too much. While they're a great way of defining reliability targets, they are difficult to manage. That's why we built the SLO Center. One place to define, track, zoom into, and stay on top of all your reliability targets and error budgets - so you can be sure when you can experiment, and when it's best to stay safe.

Breaking through the Senior Engineer ceiling
You’ve made it to Senior engineer. Now what? You’re now staring at the next level, Staff typically, sometimes Principal, or whatever your company calls it. The path feels murky. Your manager gives you feedback like “show more technical leadership” or “think bigger picture”, but what does that actually mean day-to-day? I’ve been there. I’ve also been on the other side, helping engineers grow through whatever explicit (or implicit) levels a company has.
Vibe coding with the incident.io API
Many, many years ago, I was a computer science major at the University of Illinois, hoping someday I’d be able to write code for a living. I started my career in QA hoping to learn the ins and outs of software development. But it turns out I wasn’t very good at coding.
