This short tutorial demonstrates how you can work on data stored on your own infrastructure or in hybrid cloud CI/CD environments using CircleCI’s shared workspaces functionality — without having to configure VPNs, SSH tunnels, or other additional infrastructure.
Knowing what issues to hit the snooze button on, or drop everything and push a hotfix for is a common developer dilemma.

Ansible is a configuration management tool that helps you automatically deploy, manage, and configure software on your hosts. By turning manual workflows into automated processes, you can quicken your deployment lifecycle and ensure that all hosts are equipped with the proper configurations and tools. The Datadog collection is now available in both Ansible Galaxy and Ansible Automation Hub.

Even more, how do you do this in a way that's simple, presentable to executives, and doesn't dump a ton of extra work on to engineers' plates? Slack recently wrote about how they created the Service Delivery Index for Reliability (SDI-R), a simple yet comprehensive metric that became the basis for many of their reliability and performance indicators.
