A deep dive into Java garbage collectors

Oct 17, 2025 By Jean-Philippe Bempel In Datadog
Historically, developers have relied on languages like C and C++ for explicit control over memory allocation and deallocation. This approach can yield very low overhead and tight control over performance, but it also increases complexity and risk (e.g., memory leaks, dangling pointers, and double frees). This often results in runtime issues that are difficult to diagnose, which can become a drag on team velocity.

Track, debug, and roll back changes with Version History for Synthetic Monitoring tests

Oct 17, 2025 By Lauren Zuniga In Datadog
A synthetic test is only useful if you can trust what it’s telling you. When one fails, the reason may not be obvious. Was the application updated? Did the test change? Or both? As more people contribute and refine the same test, it becomes harder to understand what changed or restore a working version. Without clear visibility into those updates, teams can spend more time tracking down the cause of a failure than resolving it.

But when it slows down—or worse, goes dark—productivity grinds to a halt. The problem is that most monitoring approaches treat SharePoint like a static website. They check availability, not experience.

Kubernetes Security Guide: Risks, Strategies, And Tools

Oct 17, 2025 By Rachel Whitener In CloudZero
In 2018, attackers gained access to Tesla’s AWS cloud environment through an unprotected Kubernetes console (admin console). Because it lacked proper authentication, the hackers could see and control cluster resources.
