Digital transformation is changing banking from the inside out

The increasingly frictionless consumer banking experience didn’t happen by accident; it arose from foundational technology and culture shifts within banks toward a more digital mindset. Companies across all industries are faced with the urgent need to transform the way they do business, including financial services, but changes abound with governance, security, and culture.

How Puppet supports desktop and laptop automation in a changing world

The world has changed since I started out on a help desk in Colorado 25 years ago. In those long ago years, a company’s desktop machines actually lived under the desks of many in the organization (and often doubled as a foot warmer!) and configuration was done machine by machine manually, or maybe even by some script that was created to run at login if we were lucky. If there were laptops in use by the business users, they were a lot less mobile and rarer than in today’s business world...

Play with the Speedscale - no registration required

For the first time, Kubernetes engineering teams interested in learning more about Speedscale will be able to play with the framework without registering, at play.speedscale.com. Engineers can see firsthand how you: While users won’t be able to actively watch replays run, there are a variety of pre-created traffic snapshots, reports and configs to browse. Engineers will be able to experience the ease with which snapshots are generated for fast, scalable test automation.

Why we created a Prometheus Agent mode from the Grafana Agent

On 2021-10-29, initial support for Prometheus Agent was merged, and it is slated for inclusion in Prometheus v2.32! This feature has a bit of a lengthy history to it: It took a little while to get to where we are today, but I’m thrilled that we were able to use the Grafana Agent code to enable agent-like functionality in the prometheus/prometheus repository.

Measure, Track, Improve: Streamlined event exploration and increased visibility into team health

For many engineering leaders, measuring their team’s impact can be hard to quantify and a face:palm process, filled with searching through logs and exporting data sets to cobble together a report that most people won’t even look at twice. And let’s be honest, if you wanted to spend time making reports, you wouldn’t have become a developer.
