Session Replay for Unreal Engine: see the crash before the crash

Jul 24, 2026 By Ivan Tustanivskyi In Sentry
You know the drill: a crash report lands in your queue with a pristine stack trace pointing at some innocent-looking function and absolutely no clue about what the player was actually doing. Were they mid-boss-fight? Alt-tabbing during a loading screen? Standing perfectly still in the tutorial? QA can’t repro it, the player’s bug report says “game crashed lol,” and you’re left staring at a callstack playing twenty questions with a core dump.

The July 23 2026 Azure West US Outage: IP Route Removal and Downstream Impact

Jul 24, 2026 By Hrishikesh Barua In IncidentHub
On July 23, 2026, Microsoft Azure experienced a connectivity outage in the West US region that blocked traffic entering or leaving the region for nearly five hours. Workloads that stayed entirely inside West US were not affected. Microsoft's preliminary Post Incident Review (PIR) attributes the failure to a bug in maintenance request conversion software that removed IP routes from more devices than intended during routine device maintenance.

How Claude Mythos Changes the Future of Vulnerability Management: Fixing, Not Finding

Jul 24, 2026 By Nexthink In Nexthink
Anthropic’s Claude Mythos shows how AI is making vulnerability discovery nearly infinite. Endpoint remediation is where IT teams win or lose. In April 2026, Anthropic introduced Claude Mythos Preview, an AI model that autonomously discovered thousands of previously unknown vulnerabilities across every major operating system and web browser. By late May, the running total had passed 23,000 potential findings, and the vast majority were still unpatched.

Patching Alone Can't Keep Pace with Mythos. These 6 Nexthink Library Packs Can.

Jul 24, 2026 By Nexthink In Nexthink
Most vulnerability programs were built around a known list of CVEs, scanned periodically and scored by severity. The Anthropic’s Claude Mythos era breaks that model, because the vulnerabilities that matter most are often undisclosed, unscored, and absent from any feed. The organizations that close the gap will be the ones that treat real-time exposure and remediation velocity as the core capability, not the patch backlog.

OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (Grafana OTel Community Call #9)

Jul 24, 2026 By Grafana In Grafana
In this episode of the Grafana OTel Community Call, we're exploring OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (OBI). OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (OBI) offers a powerful way to instrument applications at the system kernel level, capturing essential “RED metrics” — request rate, error rate, and duration — and network flows without requiring code changes, rebuilds, or redeployments. We will cover the project's architecture, discuss its origins as Grafana Beyla, and look ahead to the roadmap for language and runtime coverage.

GCP Monitoring: A Complete Guide to Monitoring Google Cloud Applications and Infrastructure

Jul 24, 2026 By Mohana Ayeswariya J In Atatus
Most production incidents in Google Cloud don't announce themselves as infrastructure problems. A checkout service on GKE starts timing out, a Cloud Function cold-starts under load, a Cloud SQL replica falls behind, and a Pub/Sub subscription quietly backs up until messages start expiring. None of that shows up as a red node in a compute dashboard. It shows up as slow requests, failed webhooks, and a support queue filling up faster than anyone can triage it.

How to Choose the Right Infrastructure Monitoring Tool

Jul 24, 2026 By Motadata Team In Motadata
A production service degrades, and one question decides the next hour: is it the server, the network, or a cloud dependency? Each layer usually reports into a separate console, so pinning down the answer can absorb an hour the business would rather not lose. The right infrastructure monitoring tool is what turns that hour into minutes. On paper, most monitoring platforms look identical. Each one promises full-stack visibility and shows a polished dashboard.

How To Build An MSP Team That Truly Relies On Data-Driven Decision-Making

Jul 23, 2026 By Amanda Doucette-Lachapelle In Auvik
Managed Service Providers (MSPs) aren’t short on data. Most of them have dashboards, KPIs, and utilization reports running across multiple screens. But having data and using it to make better decisions are two different things, and the gap between them is wider than you might think, with one study finding that only 32% of companies effectively use data to drive business value. For the other 68%, the numbers exist, they just… don’t do much.
