So you need to add microcontrollers to your fleet: now what?

Jun 18, 2026 By Jonathan Beri In Canonical
Your Ubuntu Core fleet is running beautifully. OTA updates roll out in minutes. Every device is strictly confined, cryptographically attested, and carrying a 10 to 15 year long term support (LTS) commitment. The operational team sleeps soundly. Then the product roadmap meeting happens. The industrial floor needs vibration sensors on every motor. The smart building needs temperature nodes in every room. The cold chain system requires dozens of low-power Bluetooth tags. And someone just said the words.

Only ONE company has all of DevSecOps - and it's not who you think

Jun 18, 2026 By Harness In Harness
Harness has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for DevSecOps Platforms — for the third year in a row. Here's what stands out: almost every company in the Leaders quadrant is missing a piece. Some have Dev, some have Ops, but not the security. Harness is the one platform that brings Dev, Sec, AND Ops together — with AI built in. AI is changing how software gets built: more code, more automation, more agents — but also more complexity. Teams need delivery, security, testing, reliability, and cost in one place. That's what we're building every day.

How to build a secure AI agent sandbox with relaxAI and Claude Code

Jun 18, 2026 By Civo In Civo
AI agents are powerful. They're also unpredictable, non-deterministic, and capable of doing things you didn't ask them to do, as the Rome Alibaba and Claude Mythos case studies make very clear. The answer isn't to avoid agentic AI. It's to run it properly. In this demo, Ben Norris, founding engineer at relaxAI, shows how to build a fully sandboxed AI agent environment from scratch, an ephemeral Civo VM provisioned via Terraform and GitHub Actions, locked down with egress policies, an unprivileged Linux user, and hard resource caps, running a Claude Code session pointed at the relaxAI API.

How to run an operational excellence review for software engineering

Jun 18, 2026 By Ganesh Datta In Cortex
Most engineering organizations already run something they call an operational review. It usually looks like a cousin of the quarterly business review: a deck assembled every few months, walked through team by team, anchored on whatever incidents happened to land in the previous quarter. By the time leadership sees the data, the systems it describes have moved on and the next set of risks is already accumulating in the gap.

7 Best AI Search Tools Across Slack, Google Drive, and GitHub That Flag Stale Docs

7 Best AI Search Tools Across Slack, Google Drive, and GitHub That Flag Stale Docs

Jun 18, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
An authoritative-looking snippet can be poisonous if it's two versions behind. A Gartner CX survey found that 56 percent of users complain about outdated documentation, and a 2026 Support Ops study attributes nearly 40 percent of tickets to articles that are stale or unclear. If a deployment script changes yet the old README still ranks first in Slack, you can lose an afternoon chasing errors. Multiply that across every lapsed policy, pricing deck, or support macro, and productivity shrinks-along with audit scores and customer trust.

We wrote the docs

Jun 17, 2026 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit
Most security vendors hide their documentation behind a login. Some don’t write it at all. You get a sales page, a demo, and a request to install an agent on your servers, and you’re expected to trust that the thing does what the marketing says. That’s backwards. So we wrote the docs, and we put all of them at certkit.io/docs. No login, no account gate, no “contact us for details.” You can read every page before you create an account.

Real-Time CPU and Memory Insights for Harness CI Cloud Builds | Harness Blog

Jun 17, 2026 By Abhay Ganvir In Harness
When a CI pipeline runs on cloud infrastructure, the build machine is ephemeral. It spins up, executes your build, and disappears. During that window, you have zero visibility into how much CPU and memory your pipeline actually consumes. This blind spot creates real problems. Teams over-provision VMs "just in case," wasting compute spend. Others under-provision and deal with silent OOM-kills or CPU throttling — the only clue being a cryptic exit code 137.

What Is Coherent Routing?

Jun 17, 2026 By David Stokes In Ribbon
Coherent routing, Routed Optical Networking, Converged Optical Routing Architecture (CORA), are all names for the same concept: an advanced network architecture which integrates coherent optical transceivers directly into IP routers. This convergence of layers creates a simplified and highly efficient IP-over-DWDM (IP over Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) network.
