Are You Audit-Ready? SecOps for SAP in the Age of Constant Change

Jul 27, 2026 By Avantra Team In Avantra
Drift Happens. Six months ago, your SAP landscape passed audit cleanly. Today? You couldn’t say for certain without a manual scramble across Basis, security, and infrastructure teams to reconstruct what’s true right now. You did exactly that for the audit, after all. That gap between “was compliant” and “is compliant” is where most SAP security programs quietly fail.

How Collective IQ Turns Reactive IT into Truly Proactive IT

Jul 27, 2026 By Almaden AI In Almaden AI
Most IT organizations still operate in "firefighting" mode: an employee opens a ticket, the service desk investigates, depending on severity and complexity multiple teams or people are involved to diagnose, and then the appropriate person or team fixes the issue. The whole process then repeats for the next reported incident. This model doesn't scale, drains time and budget, and leaves a huge number of issues unresolved because many employees simply don't bother to report them. And, if and when they do report them, it's too late, the problem has already impacted their productive work.

No SAP Expertise? No Problem. Automation Just Got Easier

Jul 27, 2026 By Avantra Team In Avantra
Avantra 21 introduced the concept of Automation workflows. By Avantra 23, compatibility with Ansible was added. Along the way, Avantra became the tool SAP teams reached for when they wanted system copies, refreshes, and backup orchestration to just run - predictably, on a schedule, without a senior engineer babysitting them. So, automation isn't new to Avantra users. Avantra made automation for SAP practical to deploy, predictable in operation, and easier to maintain.

It was surprisingly hard to break CloudNativePG replication

Jul 27, 2026 By Nikolay Sivko In Coroot
I wanted a Postgres replica that falls behind its primary. Sounds easy. It wasn't. Every time I cut the replica off from the primary, its lag jumped for a moment and then dropped right back to zero. It just would not stay behind. Chasing down why turned into a fun little tour of how a Postgres standby keeps itself alive, and what CloudNativePG quietly sets up behind the scenes.

Firewall High Memory Usage: How to Troubleshoot and Fix It

Jul 27, 2026 By Andrii Kernitskyi In Obkio
A firewall running low on memory rarely fails all at once. It degrades first. Connections drop intermittently, policies take longer to process, and by the time the device becomes unresponsive, the problem has been building for days or weeks. This article walks through what firewall memory usage actually means, what causes it to climb, how to spot the symptoms early, and how to troubleshoot and fix it before it takes your network down with it.

Supply chain hit: the first hours are about "am I affected?"

Jul 27, 2026 By Cloudsmith In Cloudsmith
The first two to three hours after a supply chain compromise aren't about remediation – they're about figuring out whether you're affected at all. That requires two things: a feed of compromised packages you can cross-reference against what you're using, and an audit trail showing which developers pulled which packages and when. Teams that can answer "are we affected?" in 30 minutes have that data pre-built into their platform. Teams that don't are still piecing it together at hour three. Protect your supply chain with Cloudsmith.
