Aug 5, 2026 By Robert McDonald In Avantra
When SAP unveiled the Business AI Platform at Sapphire 2026, it folded BTP, Business Data Cloud, and Business AI into a single governed environment.

BGP monitoring: Fixing the blind spot in your digital experience monitoring stack

Aug 5, 2026 By Bela Susan Thomas In Site24x7
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.

Aug 5, 2026 By Cortex | Engineering Operations Platform In Cortex
OpenTelemetry instrumentation used to mean hours of manual work, wiring up metrics service by service. Now you can just ask for it. Tell an AI agent what you're trying to observe, something like "add OpenTelemetry so I can track this application's performance," and it turns that into an intent specification, then enriches your existing code with instrumentation to match.
