The Hidden Cost of DIY AI in Network Operations

While AI offers powerful benefits for network operations, building an in-house AI solution presents major challenges, particularly around complex data engineering, staffing specialized roles, and maintaining models over time. The effort required to handle real-time telemetry, retrain models, and manage evolving environments is often too great for most IT teams.

Serverless Monitoring In The Cloud With Bindplane and OpenTelemetry

Almost two years ago I wrote the first installment of what was supposed to be a 3 part series on Serverless Monitoring. Parts two and three never materialized. Today, however, I am revisiting that original idea and expanding upon it. I hope to succeed this time in making it a full three-part series. For this first installment (Revisited), I will again work with Google Cloud Run to monitor MongoDB Atlas.

Debug App Performance Down to the Function Call-Introducing Continuous Profiling & UI Profiling

When something slows down in prod, it’s too easy to fall into old habits. Throw in a few more logs, ship some metrics, try to reproduce the issue locally, and maybe reach for perf or py-spy if you’re feeling ambitious.
