Serverless platforms have revolutionized the way developers build and deploy APIs, eliminating the need to manage servers or underlying infrastructure. With serverless, you can focus entirely on your application logic and let the platform handle scaling, availability, and maintenance. Scaleway Serverless Functions is a flexible serverless platform that makes it easy to deploy lightweight APIs and background jobs in the cloud.

There’s a moment every engineer knows. An AI suggests a fix, it looks reasonable,maybe even obvious, but production is on the line and you hesitate before clicking execute. There’s a big difference between an AI that can recommend an action and one you’re willing to let take that action. All it takes is one bad call, one kubectl command that makes things worse, and suddenly every automated suggestion is a potential liability instead of a help.

Have you ever asked yourself, what is the fastest way to turn a harmless Infrastructure as Code change into a production incident and an awkward postmortem? We did, and found that usually, it's from letting it through without any guardrails. Infrastructure guardrails in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) were once a nice-to-have. Today, they’re essential. Without clear boundaries and safety mechanisms, even well-designed IaC workflows can turn small mistakes into fast-moving, high-impact problems.

Security teams are increasingly turning to Amazon Security Lake to consolidate security telemetry across cloud, network, and on-prem environments. Security Lake provides a unified, OCSF-based data repository that powers analytics, threat hunting, and machine learning across AWS services and third-party tools. But to take advantage of Security Lake’s capabilities, organizations must deliver clean, normalized, OCSF-compliant data, and this is where challenges arise.

Purchasing the software is one thing, but convincing a team of busy engineers to change their daily habits is a much bigger monster to tame. Pragya says the platform team at Paxos learned this lesson the hard way.
