Perspectives from the Edge: Data Sovereignty with KPMG

Feb 11, 2026 By PulsantUK In Pulsant
Data sovereignty isn’t a checkbox – it’s now a board-level priority. Data sovereignty is everywhere right now, but for many organisations, it still feels abstract. In this first episode of Perspectives from the Edge, Assad Noori, Head of Digital Infrastructure Advisory for the UK at KPMG, speaks with Pulsant's Wendy Shearer, about why sovereignty has become a board-level issue, how AI and hybrid infrastructure are reshaping long-held assumptions, and why decisions about where data lives, moves, and is accessed now carry far wider implications than most organisations expect.

Happy Birthday to Us: Honeycomb 10 Year Manifesto, Part 1

Feb 11, 2026 By Charity Majors In Honeycomb
Christine and I started Honeycomb in 2016, which means it’s been ten years. Christine, a developer, and I, an operations engineer, were both profoundly unhappy with the state of the art in monitoring and logging tools. The tools we had used at Facebook didn’t spray our signals around to a bunch of siloed-off pillars. They consolidated as much context as possible so we could properly explore it, the way every other non-software engineering team already takes for granted.

A Notification List Is Not a Team

Feb 11, 2026 By James Barnes In StatusCake
In the previous post, we looked at how alert noise is rarely accidental. It’s usually the result of sensible decisions layered over time, until responsibility becomes diffuse and response slows. One of the most persistent assumptions behind this pattern is simple. If enough people are notified, someone will take responsibility. After more than fourteen years of working with engineering teams of every size and shape, we’ve seen this assumption fail repeatedly.

A new perspective on dashboard sprawl

Feb 11, 2026 By Dave Clarke In Squared Up
Dashboards are supposed to answer questions, not create more of them. But investigations don't stop at a single view. The moment you want to understand one specific thing in detail like a failing VM, a degraded service, a slow pipeline, dashboards start to break down. You end up either building yet another dashboard or searching through many different ones. SquaredUp's Perspectives changes this.

Why distributed observability is straining and what new research reveals

Feb 11, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
Distributed systems quietly run much of today's digital world. People expect these systems to work reliably across regions and time zones for everything from money transfers to streaming platforms and AI-driven workloads. As organisations use more microservices, containers, and event-driven architectures, observability has become the main way for teams to understand what is happening in production.

From Concept to Screen: A Pro's Guide to Multi-Shot Storytelling in Seedance 2.0

Feb 11, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
In the early days of AI video, the medium was largely defined by "one-hit wonders"-single, impressive clips that existed in a vacuum. You could generate a beautiful shot of a dragon or a futuristic city, but trying to tell a cohesive story with a beginning, middle, and end was nearly impossible. The characters would change, the art style would drift, and the logical flow between shots would crumble.

The KPI Trap in Supply Chain Analytics: How Teams Escape It

The KPI Trap in Supply Chain Analytics: How Teams Escape It

Feb 11, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
KPI dashboards can look like progress, especially when charts move and targets turn green. In many organizations, the dashboard becomes the meeting, the meeting becomes the process, and the process quietly replaces real problem solving. The result is a lot of motion, not much traction, and a team that feels busy without feeling effective.
