A system refresh in SAP is the process of copying data, most often from Production, into a QA or test system so that testing happens against realistic, current data. Manually, it’s one of the most time-consuming recurring tasks a Basis team owns.

When SAP unveiled the Business AI Platform at Sapphire 2026, it folded BTP, Business Data Cloud, and Business AI into a single governed environment. BTP didn’t disappear but became essential architecture underneath SAP’s agentic AI direction. A big part of the repositioning included cloud and AI enablement of existing systems, data and enterprise context: the cloud half of every hybrid SAP estate just got more capable and more strategic, and SAP Cloud Connector plays a central role.

Managing a growing list of monitors should be fast and straightforward. That’s why we’re introducing Bulk Actions, a new way to organize and manage multiple monitors at once in StatusGator. Instead of updating monitors individually, you can now select several monitors and group, duplicate, or delete them in just a few clicks.

Without Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) monitoring, your digital experience monitoring (DEM) stack can't detect the route hijacks, leaks, or instability that prevent users from reaching your applications. Most DEM stacks miss this entirely, and that gap is where some of the most damaging, hardest-to-diagnose outages happen.

Organizations are increasingly integrating GenAI capabilities into their applications to deliver richer, more contextual user experiences—from AI-powered customer support and enterprise search to content generation, virtual assistants, and automated workflows. To build and scale these GenAI-powered experiences, they are turning to platforms such as Amazon Bedrock, which provides access to foundation models that developers can integrate into their applications.

BubbleUp has always been the fastest way to figure out what a group of outliers have in common. Draw a box around a band of slow traces, a cluster of errors, or any set of events you're interested in, and BubbleUp compares that selection to the baseline across every dimension you've sent us. It's how Honeycomb users find the "unknown unknowns" that dashboards can’t show you.

Your largest prospect has asked for your SOC 2 report. The deal sits still until you produce one. Most teams handle the first half of SOC 2 compliance fine. They control access. They run backups. They put changes through approval before anything ships. The second half is what stops them, and that half is proof. Your policy says access gets reviewed every quarter. The auditor wants the dated review, the signature on it, and the same record from eight months ago.

How many findings from your last vulnerability scan have been verified as fixed? For most IT functions, the scan report is easy to produce, and the proof of closure takes far longer to assemble. That difference tends to surface at the worst possible moment, usually an audit or a post-incident review. Vulnerability assessment tools are meant to end that uncertainty. They inspect systems, match what they find against public vulnerability databases, and rank each weakness by how dangerous it is.

You can already send OTel traces to Sentry. Point your OTLP exporter at Sentry’s endpoint, set environment variables, and your spans show up in the trace explorer. Our OTLP setup guide and “You Don’t Need to Pick One” walk you through that. But those spans are islands. You get a trace waterfall in Sentry, sure.
