About a year and a half ago, I decided to take a different approach to setting up a Zephyr environment for a new project at Intercreate. Instead of using my trusty VMWare Workstation Linux VM, I opted for WSL2. I was curious to find out: Would hardware pass-through for debugging work reliably? Would all of the tooling dependencies be supported? What about build system performance?

In pursuit of open source sustainability, Canonical is a committed contributor to the development of Valkey. Following our mission to amplify the impact of open source and enable a broad diversity of open source communities to collaborate under the Ubuntu umbrella, we’re pleased to announce that Valkey is now included in Ubuntu. Valkey is included in Ubuntu 24.10 (Oracular Oriole) and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Nombat) and will be included in future releases.

The combination of AI and search enables new levels of enterprise intelligence, with technologies such as natural language processing (NLP), machine learning (ML)-based relevancy, vector/semantic search, and large language models (LLMs) helping organizations finally unlock the value of unanalyzed data. Search and knowledge discovery technology is required for organizations to uncover, analyze, and utilize key data.

Observability is crucial for maintaining complex systems’ health and performance. In its traditional form, observability involves monitoring key metrics, logging events, and tracing requests to ensure that applications and infrastructure run smoothly. The emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) promises to revolutionize the way organizations approach observability.

If you want to make your vehicle go faster, you might be compelled to put in an engine that will give you more horsepower. But if that vehicle is a 20-year-old minivan with a suspension that can’t handle the extra horsepower, you’re not going to get anywhere, much less get there faster. You must first upgrade the suspension to be able to handle the higher-speed turns or you’re going to have a lot more problems to deal with.
