Your AWS Kiro Agent Can Now Query CloudZero. Here's What To Ask It

CloudZero's new AWS Kiro integration puts cost intelligence directly in your agentic IDE. Ask plain-language questions about spend, attribution, and cost-per-serve without leaving your development workflow. We see a similar pattern playing out across engineering teams running agentic development tools: code gets shipped fast, something moves in the cost data, and understanding why still requires leaving your environment entirely.

Why Runtime Visualization Is the Missing Link in Teaching Real-Time Systems

Guest blog by Florent Goutailler, Associate Professor, Télécom Saint-Etienne, France Teaching real-time embedded systems has always involved a fundamental challenge: the most critical behaviors – task scheduling, timing, and concurrency – are largely invisible at runtime. When students begin working with a real-time operating system such as FreeRTOS, they are introduced to concepts like scheduling, task prioritization, semaphores, and inter-task communication.

Poland's KSC Act Is Now in Force: Why NIS2 Compliance Starts with Infrastructure Automation

Poland’s implementation of the EU’s NIS2 Directive marks a decisive shift in how organisations think about cybersecurity, resilience, and operational risk. With amendments to the Act on the National Cybersecurity System (KSC Act) entering into force on 3 April 2026, enforcement expectations are now real, national, and significantly stricter than many organisations anticipated – including obligations for security controls, incident response, and supply‑chain governance.

Service-Centric Observability as the Control Layer

If distributed architectures have altered how systems degrade, then the way organizations model operational must evolve accordingly. Threshold monitoring evaluates individual metrics. Correlation clusters related alerts. Neither, on its own, explains how instability in one component alters exposure across an interconnected service landscape. In conversations at Nexus Live 2025, ScienceLogic’s annual customer conference, leaders described this distinction with clarity.

Stop watching the looms: why the AI era belongs to infrastructure

I live in Manchester, England now. I moved here from Texas last summer (which is its own story), but the thing I wasn't prepared for is how the Industrial Revolution isn't history here. It's the city itself. And if you're American like me, you might need to hear this: the Industrial Revolution didn't start in the US. It started here. Manchester is where the modern world was born. You see it everywhere. The old cotton mills converted into apartments.

Monitoring Sidekiq Job Performance with AppSignal

When my Sidekiq job starts failing or slowing down, I often feel frustrated, especially if I don’t know how to fix it. If you’re using Sidekiq to run your background jobs, you know what I’m talking about. It’s a vital element of your stack, handling everything from data exports to password reset requests. It runs silently in the background, and most of the time, you’re not even giving it a second thought.

Context-Driven AI You Can Trust: How Edwin AI Earns Confidence in Production

Most legacy AIOps investments underdeliver because the AI lacks context, not capability. LogicMonitor’s latest innovations expand Edwin AI’s contextual intelligence across every dimension, so recommendations are accurate, explainable, and trusted by the teams that need to act on them. Reduce incident resolution time with AI that understands your environment—not just your alerts.

Who's on call? How Claude helped us calculate this 2,500x faster

Schedules are a core part of any on-call system. In ours, they define who to page and when. But people use them in lots of other ways too: checking their next shift, asking for cover while at the gym, keeping a Slack user group up to date, or updating a Linear triage responsibility. For many of our customers, they’re one of the main ways they interact with our product, and as they’re such a foundational part of On-call, it’s very important they work well.
