Federal agencies need observability that doesn’t create new compliance problems. Today, that’s possible. LogicMonitor Envision is now FedRAMP Moderate Authorized with a formal Authorization to Operate (ATO). That means unified, AI-powered visibility across your hybrid infrastructure—on-prem, AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, and edge—without starting your security review from scratch.

You're sampling 1% of traces in production. A payment request fails at 3 AM. Logs show an error in order-service, but the full picture isn't there because different services made different sampling decisions. order-service kept the trace; payment-service didn't. So you end up checking logs and timestamps across a few services to piece things together. This happens because the usual probability sampling approach makes a separate choice at each service boundary.

Trust in Big Tech is eroding. Geopolitical tensions are rising. The only predictable thing about the cloud today is that it’s time to re-evaluate everything. At Civo Navigate London 2025, we pulled together a panel of industry experts to cut through the noise and finally define what digital sovereignty means for the UK.

AI has created a paradigm shift in software development. AI-native development teams – from small startups to enterprises like Goldman Sachs and Google – are adopting agentic development tools like Cursor and Copilot to increase the speed of code generation to a pace we’ve never seen before. But with all this new code comes a big challenge: how do you manage all these potential new releases and get the right ones deployed?

Today, organizations looking to build AI products and services using large language models (LLMs), agentic AI, and generative AI often start by investing in artificial intelligence as a service (AIaaS), also known as cloud AI. AIaaS provides a scalable, flexible, and cost-effective way for businesses of all sizes to access advanced AI technologies without the need for extensive in-house expertise or infrastructure.

An email server gets blacklisted when it's identified as a potential source of spam, malware, or suspicious activity. Blacklists use automated systems and user reports to flag servers that violate mailing or security standards. Once listed, legitimate messages may bounce, land in spam folders, or never reach recipients at all. Understanding why this happens is essential to prevent future listings and protect the sender's reputation.

AI in networking isn’t theoretical anymore. It’s here, reshaping how we operate. At the ONUG AI Networking Summit, we saw firsthand how agent systems are moving from hype to hands-on reality, from secure automation to data-driven root cause analysis. The future of NetOps isn’t dashboards and tickets — it’s intelligent agents, observability, and measurable business outcomes.

If you're anything like your peers, you probably blinked in April and found yourself a month away from Black Friday when you opened your eyes. Much like a shopper desperately scrambling to pull together gift lists for their loved ones, many engineering teams find themselves rushing to ensure their systems can handle the biggest shopping day of the year.

The speed and reliability of deploying backend and full-stack applications are usually a concern for development teams. Fortunately, Railway is a developer-friendly platform that allows you to deploy apps with limited configuration. It is also quick, easy to use, and has reasonable defaults. Now, imagine pairing that with CircleCI, one of the strongest continuous integration platforms available.

In part one of this series, we learned how to implement batch updates and advanced inserts in Ecto to dramatically improve database performance. But implementing these optimizations is only the first step. Ensuring they continue to work effectively in production requires professional monitoring and observability. This guide will show you how to use AppSignal for Elixir to monitor your Ecto application's performance when dealing with batch data operations.
