The Place Where Modern Operations & Technology Come Together
Harnessing the potential of 5G with Kubernetes: a cloud-native telco transformation perspective
Telecommunications networks are undergoing a cloud-native revolution. 5G promises ultra-fast connectivity and real-time services, but achieving those benefits requires an infrastructure that is agile, low-latency, and highly reliable. Kubernetes has emerged as a cornerstone for telecom operators to meet 5G demands.
The rhythm of reliability: inside Canonical's operational cadence
In software engineering, we often talk about the “iron triangle” of constraints: time, resources, and features. You can rarely fix all three. At many companies, when scope creeps or resources get tight, the timeline is often the first element of the triangle to slip. At Canonical, we take a different approach. For us, time is the fixed constraint. This isn’t just about strict project management. It is a mechanism of trust.
The Indirect Cost Trap: Why Your Margins Look Better Than They Are (And How To Fix It)
When a SaaS company scales, something curious happens. The cloud bill grows. One team swears it’s Kubernetes. Another blames the Black Friday promo. But when you’re unsure whether that increase is tied to healthy SaaS growth or simply overspending, your margins are already at risk. That gap between what’s spent and what’s understood is where indirect costs live. Yet these costs rarely show up in dashboards. Well, until it’s too late.
Introducing Workspace: Where DEX Work Happens
Today marks another milestone for Nexthink as we introduce a powerful evolution of our platform, one that will meaningfully expand how customers derive value and empower many more teams across IT, HR, and the business to use Infinity. Welcome to Workspace: a new destination where the future of DEX and IT work comes together.
Observability trends for 2026: Maturity, cost control, and driving business value
The observability landscape has undergone a fundamental transformation over the past several years. In a recent report, The Landscape of Observability in 2026: Balancing Cost and Innovation conducted by Dimensional Research and sponsored by Elastic, over 500 IT decision-makers were surveyed. It revealed that observability has definitively transitioned from an optional capability to a mission-critical business function.
Docker Logs Command Reference: tail, follow, since Options
Managing Docker container logs is essential for debugging and monitoring application performance. Tailoring Docker logs allows for real-time insights, quick issue resolution, and optimized performance. This guide focuses on efficient methods for tailing Docker logs, with clear examples and command options to streamline log management.
Rethinking developer productivity in the age of AI
For decades, engineering leaders have struggled to measure the productivity of their developers. Metrics such as number of PRs merged, lines of code changed, hours worked, and tickets closed were always flawed. They incentivized the wrong behaviors and ignored code quality and best practices. Ultimately, they were the perfect formula to make Goodhart's Law a reality. Measures became targets, which meant they ceased being good measures.
Building a Stronger Defense with Network Observability and Real-Time Monitoring
In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the importance of network security and performance has never been more pronounced. Businesses are increasingly relying on their network infrastructure to support a wide array of critical applications, services, and user activities. As cyber threats become more sophisticated and network architectures more complex, maintaining visibility into network performance and security is essential. This is where a network observability platform becomes indispensable.
Every Business Needs a Robust Incident Response Strategy
In today's digital landscape, businesses face an increasing number of cyber threats that can compromise sensitive data, disrupt operations, and tarnish their reputation. As companies adopt more complex technological solutions, they must be prepared for the inevitable risk of security incidents. Having a well-established, effective incident response strategy is no longer optional but essential. This article explores why incident response solutions are critical for every business and how they play a pivotal role in safeguarding an organization's assets, reputation, and continuity.
