When a critical incident or emergency strikes, businesses rely on well-defined incident response procedures to accelerate remediation. Incident response teams are on standby, and each responder understands their role in restoring services and minimizing customer impact. However, organizations often overlook an equally critical requirement: real-time communication with all stakeholders during incidents. This is not just an operational gap, it is increasingly a compliance and risk management requirement.

Recorded Future provides real-time threat intelligence about indicators of compromise (IOCs), including malicious IP addresses, domains, and vulnerabilities. It also adds context on threat actors and campaigns to help security teams understand which signals represent real risk and prioritize their responses accordingly.

Platform engineering teams have access to hundreds of metrics, yet over 40% of platform initiatives cannot demonstrate measurable value within the first year. Teams that cannot quantify their impact fail to obtain executive sponsorship, risk being defunded, and ultimately, face deprecation. To accurately calculate a platform’s ROI, platform engineering teams need to differentiate between signals that measure platform effectiveness and those that should be used solely for investigative purposes.

When engineers investigate SQL queries, they normally think of index scans as a fast and efficient step in the query’s execution plan. When executed correctly, they fetch only the relevant rows from your table as opposed to sequential scans that read the entire table, reducing latency and query costs. However, just because an execution plan uses an index scan doesn’t mean that the scan is fast or performant.

Boomi is an Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) used by thousands of organizations to connect applications, data, and workflows across cloud and on-premises environments. Business-critical processes, from order fulfillment pipelines to customer data synchronization, depend on Boomi Atoms and Molecules running reliably.

Quick answer: IT cost reduction strategies target waste across three categories — cloud infrastructure, SaaS applications, and software licensing — without cutting the investments that drive business value. The highest-impact tactics are auditing unused SaaS licenses, rightsizing overprovisioned cloud resources, automating non-production environment shutdowns, extending commitment coverage on stable workloads, and building cost accountability into engineering workflows.

Most companies have built AI into their product by now, and many consider it the central feature of what they’re building. But plenty of those same companies are still figuring out how to get their own engineering teams to actually use AI tools day to day. When Loïc Houssier joined Superhuman as CTO in early 2025, his team was in that exact spot. The company had been shipping AI email features for years, but internal adoption of AI dev tools was still early.

OrionIQ is Logz.io’s new agentic observability platform designed to move teams from detecting issues to resolving them automatically. As AI accelerates software development, operations remain manual: engineers still wake up at 2 a.m. to investigate alerts and rebuild context. OrionIQ uses AI agents to analyze real-time telemetry, investigate incidents, identify root causes, and take action across systems.
