Feb 12, 2026 By Sreekar In Spike

Most teams run on-call using rotation-based schedules where responsibility shifts every few days or weeks. But some situations call for different models that change who responds based on time zones, expertise, or the type of incident that triggers. This guide walks you through six on-call models that work outside the standard rotation patterns.

Silent Failures: Why AI Code Breaks in Production

Feb 11, 2026 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale

You ship a small “safe” change on Friday. The diff is tiny, the tests are green, and the AI assistant was confident. An hour after deploy, your on-call channel lights up. A downstream service is rejecting responses that look fine in code review. Now you’re rolling back and rewriting a fix that should have been obvious if you had real traffic in the loop. This isn’t a hypothetical.

Perspectives from the Edge: Data Sovereignty with KPMG

Feb 11, 2026 By PulsantUK In Pulsant

Data sovereignty isn’t a checkbox – it’s now a board-level priority. Data sovereignty is everywhere right now, but for many organisations, it still feels abstract. In this first episode of Perspectives from the Edge, Assad Noori, Head of Digital Infrastructure Advisory for the UK at KPMG, speaks with Pulsant's Wendy Shearer, about why sovereignty has become a board-level issue, how AI and hybrid infrastructure are reshaping long-held assumptions, and why decisions about where data lives, moves, and is accessed now carry far wider implications than most organisations expect.

What is RDMA?

Feb 11, 2026 By Benjamin Ryzman In Canonical

Modern data centres are hitting a wall that faster CPUs alone cannot fix. As workloads scale out and latency budgets shrink, the impact of moving data between servers is starting to become the most significant factor in overall performance. Remote Direct Memory Access, or RDMA, is one of the technologies reshaping how that data moves, and it forces a rethink of some long-held assumptions in data centre networking. This article is the first in a short series.
