Explore Kubernetes with native OpenTelemetry data

Mar 23, 2026 By Allie Rittman In Datadog
Kubernetes environments generate a constant stream of signals across clusters, nodes, pods, and workloads. For teams that have standardized on OpenTelemetry (OTel), maintaining ownership of that data is critical. But in practice, many observability platforms require translation into vendor-specific data formats, leading to fragmented product experiences, blank dashboards, and uncertainty about data integrity.

Monitor Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications with Datadog

Mar 23, 2026 By Ellie Cohen In Datadog
Many organizations rely on Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications to run core business workflows across finance, HR, and supply chain operations. Because these SaaS-based applications run on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), engineering teams have limited visibility into their performance. Without direct access to the underlying stack, they often lack the signals needed to detect regressions or investigate degraded user experience.

How to Communicate the Value of DEX Across Your Organization

Mar 23, 2026 By Megan Brake In Nexthink
For many EUC and Digital Workplace leaders, the challenge with digital employee experience (DEX) isn’t the technology, it’s building alignment. You can see the data. You know where friction exists. You can quantify disruption, productivity loss, and inefficiencies. But you struggle to achieve your targets, because you need buy in from other teams, and right now, they don’t want to hear anything about DEX. Security has different priorities. Application owners are focused on releases.

Certificate distribution is the last mile nobody solved

Mar 23, 2026 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit
Certbot is good software in the classic Linux tradition: it does one thing simply and expects you to chain it together with everything else. One server, one certificate, done. The trouble is that most environments are not simple. And the moment yours isn’t, you discover that renewing a certificate and getting it deployed are two different problems, and deployment is your problem.

Leveraging Cognitive Diversity to Tackle System Complexity

Mar 23, 2026 By Nick Travaglini In Honeycomb
Most engineering leaders today understand that diversity matters. They've built teams that reflect a range of backgrounds, functions, and experience levels. They run postmortems, retrospectives, and architecture reviews that bring multiple voices to the table. They believe, not unreasonably, that this variety of perspectives leads to better decisions. But there's a problem hiding inside that assumption that can undermine everything: who people are is a surprisingly poor predictor of how they think.
