Once a year we let our imagination go wild for a whole week during our annual Hackweek event. It’s where we come up with product updates, like dark mode support, design them and implement prototypes. The mobile engineering team came up with the idea for a Sentry mobile app that focuses on Release Health. We wanted to give developers a concise but comprehensive view of if a release was healthy, errored, or experiencing abnormal crash sessions across multiple projects.

I’ve recently been talking to some of the users of our eG Enterprise monitoring solution and its AIOps-powered root cause analysis platform. Multiple users have mentioned how the usability of the solution has been enhanced considerably by the availability of rich featured mobile apps for iOS and Android platforms.

Hyper automation and the transformation of 5G networks was top of mind on a recent Conversations in the Cloud podcast sponsored by Intel that featured Robin.io’s Co-founder and CEO Partha Seetala.

Communications Service Providers around the world have experienced an unprecedented explosion in demand for bandwidth due to several driving forces including more video streaming, the growing popularity in areas like cloud gaming and the increasing move to the cloud to name a few.

Operators are currently modernizing their network for 5G deployments. Important elements in these transformations are the disaggregation of hardware and software. This transformation is seen in both the 5G Core (5GC) and Radio Access Network (RAN) architecture. Furthermore, the decoupling of hardware and software opens up the ability to support multi-vendor networks. SDN and NFV emerged as innovative technology for service providers to build their next generation networks.
