Beyond the Hype: Building a Future-Proof Foundation for the AI-Native Enterprise

We are witnessing a fundamental transformation in how software is built. The industry has moved beyond the experimental phase of Machine Learning Operations and entered a complex new reality: the era of the AI Software Supply Chain. The adoption metrics confirm this shift is irreversible. Google reports that 90% of tech workers are now using AI as part of their daily work. Similarly, McKinsey data reveals that 88% of organizations use AI in at least one business function.

Technical Debt for Middle Mile Broadband: Why Access-Agnostic Intelligent Middle Mile Matters

Technical debt refers to the future costs and limitations incurred when organizations opt for short-term solutions over robust, long-term scalable architectures. For the middle mile, technical debt often manifests as equipment or network designs that restrict long-term flexibility, scalability, or interoperability.

Why 2025 Changed Everything for DevOps and What Puppet Built to Meet It

In 2025, DevOps teams faced a pivotal moment. The era of treating security as an afterthought was over. Practically overnight, airtight protection became a non-negotiable requirement across every layer of the technology stack, whether on prem, in the cloud, or at the network’s edge. For many teams, this wasn’t just a technical hurdle; it was a daily source of stress.

DLP: The Key to Secure K8s Testing #speedscale #dlp #kubernetes #devops #testing

Testing with production traffic doesn't have to be a security risk. Engineers often avoid production data because of sensitive info like passwords, tokens, and PII. But legacy test data management is too static for modern, fast-changing payloads. Enter the Speedscale Streaming DLP Engine. It automatically detects and redacts sensitive data in real time as it's captured from your environment. You get the realism of production traffic without the risk of a data breach.

Easiest Way to Connect InfluxDB to a Grafana Data Source

InfluxDB is a widely used time-series database designed for storing and querying metrics, events, and telemetry data. It’s commonly used for infrastructure monitoring, application instrumentation, and IoT-style workloads where time-based data is central. In many environments, InfluxDB already exists as part of the monitoring or data collection pipeline, and the primary need is simply to visualize that data effectively.

Chaos Engineering Training: Zonal, Regional Failures and SSL/TLS Certificates Expiration

Learn how to test your system's resilience against critical infrastructure failures. This tutorial demonstrates how to simulate zonal and regional outages to validate your high availability setup, plus how to test SSL/TLS certificate expiration scenarios. Essential for ensuring your applications can handle real-world failure conditions and maintain uptime during certificate-related issues.

Chaos Engineering Training: Chaos Hub, Experiment Templates, Import as Local Copy and Reference

Learn how to leverage Chaos Hub in Harness Chaos Engineering to accelerate your resilience testing. This tutorial covers browsing the Chaos Hub for pre-built experiments, understanding experiment templates, and two key workflows: importing experiments as local copies for customization or referencing them directly from the hub. Perfect for teams looking to quickly implement chaos experiments without building from scratch.
