Obkio is proud to announce an important investment from Devolutions, one of the most respected names in IT security and remote access management. This investment marks a new chapter for Obkio as we accelerate our next phase of growth. This isn't a financial transaction between strangers. It's a partnership between two companies that have spent years building tools for the same people: IT professionals, sysadmins, MSPs, and the network engineers who keep critical network infrastructure running.

Coding agents are good at reading a spec and producing code. But producing code is one step in a longer process. The real loop is Spec -> Code -> Deploy -> Test -> Verify -> Ship. Agents stop at step two. Romaric founded Qovery to make Kubernetes accessible to every engineering team. He writes about platform strategy, developer experience, and the future of cloud infrastructure.

Microsoft Copilot cannot see archived SharePoint content in either Microsoft 365 Archive or standard third-party archives. Here's why - and how to close the gap.

Standardize the route from code to production. Everything else is a team decision, not a platform problem. Most app delivery problems do not start with bad engineering. They start with too much variation. One team provisions environments manually. Another keeps deployment notes in a wiki. A third has a staging setup that only one engineer understands. Security reviews happen late because the platform does not make the safe path obvious.

When a critical system goes down, the clock starts ticking. Every minute matters. Whether it’s a cloud platform, manufacturing operation, logistics center, airport infrastructure, or business-critical software, downtime creates more than just technical issues — it often leads to significant financial losses. That’s where MTTR comes in. MTTR measures how long it takes an organization, on average, to restore normal operations after an incident.

You open a monitoring tool, and the data is all there: errors, traces, anomalies, incidents, and countless intricacies. If you want to get the right slice of that data, you need to know exactly which dashboard to open and what filters to apply. But when the poor UI gets in the way, this can take longer than it should. Luckily, this is not the case with AppSignal. MCP (Model Context Protocol) changes the interface entirely.

Dear Nexthink community, We are excited to be named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Employee Experience Tools for the third year in a row.

A software engineer's hands-on journey building a private cloud on bare-metal: Incus clustering, K3s, OVN networking, the Gateway API, and everything that breaks along the way — and what it taught them about why platforms like Qovery exist. Antoine is a senior software engineer at Qovery. He writes about hands-on infrastructure engineering, Kubernetes internals, and the realities of running production systems.

You’re funding AI across four billing relationships – Anthropic direct, OpenAI, Claude through Bedrock, Claude through Vertex – and the spend climbs every month. When your CEO asks what it’s producing, you have a number and no answer. Not which product it built, which customer it served, or which bet it’s paying off. And you’re being asked to approve more of it.
