Phil Christianson on Balancing Innovation and Reliability in Modern Product Teams | Harness Blog

Apr 7, 2026 By Dewan Ahmed In Harness

At SREday NYC 2026, the ShipTalk podcast spoke with Phil Christianson, Chief Product Officer at Xurrent, for a leadership perspective on the intersection of product strategy, engineering investment, and platform reliability. While many of the conversations at the conference focused on tools, automation, and incident response, Phil offered a view from the C-suite level, where decisions about engineering priorities and R&D investment ultimately shape how reliability practices evolve.

Software development standards and best practices

Apr 7, 2026 By Cortex In Cortex

Every engineering team wants to ship high-quality, reliable software quickly. Historically, engineers used a few guiding principles to help them consistently write clean code: keep code DRY, shift security left, write solid test cases, own your services, document your runbooks, and more.

7 reasons Civo's UK sovereign cloud secures regulated workloads

Apr 7, 2026 By Civo Team In Civo

Sovereignty is one of those words that gets stretched until it means almost nothing. Vendors apply it to any infrastructure with a UK data center, regardless of who owns the parent company or which jurisdiction's courts govern the contract. For a developer running a personal project, that ambiguity is probably fine. For a fintech under FCA oversight, an NHS trust processing patient data, or a legal firm handling privileged communications, it isn't.

CertKit is out of beta

Apr 7, 2026 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit

CertKit is officially out of beta. We started building CertKit a year ago, and since then over 600 people signed up, issued certificates, and deployed to their infrastructure. Several are running it as their production certificate management platform right now. We built a lot during the beta. Some of it we planned: SSO, team management, alerting. Other things, users had to beat into us. The Keystore came from enterprise security requirements to keep private keys in house.

How to Evaluate Enterprise Service Desk Automation Platforms (Before You Buy)

Apr 7, 2026 By John Gorham In Resolve

The market for enterprise service desk automation platforms has matured, but the way most enterprises evaluate them hasn’t. A lot of teams still start in the same place. They pull a shortlist from a review site, they compare pricing tiers, and sit through a few polished demos. Then, somewhere down the line, they realize they still haven’t answered the real questions that matter for their organization. What happens when the environment gets complicated and messy?

From Datadog to CI Tests: Catch Regressions Before Deploy

Apr 6, 2026 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale

I worked in observability for years, and the same pattern showed up across teams. An alert fired, the on-call rotation scrambled, and everyone did what they had to do to stabilize production. Then came the retrospective. Once the immediate pressure was gone, the conversation shifted to one question: how do we make sure this never happens again? My friend Jade Rubick coined a name for that principle: DRI, “don’t repeat the incident”.
