Cycle’s API docs are live, and with it a whole new suite of tools to automate the management of containers across cloud providers. This is the same API that Cycle’s portal is built upon, meaning you have near full capability to do anything programmatically that you can do through the interface.

School’s out for… Autumn? That’s right, while you were avoiding the back-to-school rush at Office Depot, cutting the crusts off PB&Js, and taking the layers out of mothballs (confession: I have never seen let alone used a single mothball), Serverless Summer School began winding down and is now over for the season. Until next year, school-themed Stackery livestreams!
We are happy to announce that Scout now integrates with the popular error monitoring solution, Honeybadger.
