Building an AI Ready Data Backbone: Dima Kan at AICamp 2026

The Aiven Platform is more than a collection of open source services for streaming, storing and analyzing data. The platform ensures that all services run reliably and securely in the clouds of your choice, are observable, and can easily be integrated with each other and with external 3rd party tools.

The Journey to Achieving Hyperscale Availability with AI-Driven Prediction

At hyperscale, a regional cloud outage is not merely a technical disruption—for Samsung Account, which serves 2.1 billion users across three global regions, it is an immediate global service crisis. Fragmented, region-siloed monitoring creates blind spots that make early detection nearly impossible, leaving SRE teams perpetually reactive rather than predictive. The path to proactive reliability requires both a philosophical shift and a foundational change in how observability data is collected, unified, and reasoned over.

From a $28,000 AI Bill to $0.60 Per Ticket

Engineering teams are burning through AI budgets with nothing to show for it — $100M across 10,000 engineers and no cost per run, no cost per outcome, just a number that keeps climbing. When it runs dry, your infrastructure upgrade gets cut. Harness ties every AI token to the outcome it created: cost per run, cost per resolved ticket, and anomaly detection before the invoice hits. One customer went from a $28,000 black box bill to $0.60 per ticket.

The hard part of AI root cause analysis is no longer the model

Every few weeks someone tells me root cause analysis is a solved problem now: pipe your telemetry into an LLM, let it tell you what broke. I wish it were that easy. After years on this, I think "can AI do RCA?" is the wrong question, because doing RCA with an LLM is really two separate jobs, and the answer is different for each. They break in completely different ways, so it's worth pulling them apart.

From Dashboards to Conversational AI: The Evolution of UI in IT Products

The way IT teams interact with technology has changed dramatically over the years. From early text-based interfaces to today's dashboards and now conversational AI, each stage has reshaped how we monitor, diagnose, and understand complex IT environments. But while dashboards gave us visibility, they often led to more questions than answers. In this post, we briefly explore the evolution of UI in IT products and how conversational AI is bridging the gap between data and understanding.

Which Bugs AI Agents Fix Better With Traffic

In the first experiment, I wanted a baseline: if an AI coding agent gets the same production signal a human would get, can it fix bugs in a codebase it has never seen? Yes, but only when I gave it better context. With only an alert, the agent passed 51% of the runtime tests. When I added captured traffic, the actual request and response for the failing call, it climbed to 77%. This post is the second pass.
