Redgate Monitor is now available as a fully managed SaaS edition

Mar 17, 2026 By Phil James In Redgate
This is a guest post from Phil James. Database teams are already juggling a lot. Monitoring the performance of complex, multi-platform estates takes expertise and focus — and that's before you factor in installing, maintaining, and updating the monitoring tooling itself. That's the tension we've been hearing from database teams for a while. The monitoring solution is supposed to reduce operational burden, yet the infrastructure that runs it adds more.

The Now, New and Next in Data Center Infrastructure Management

Mar 17, 2026 By Jad Jebara In Hyperview
Bill has built something truly special. For nearly a decade, this has been the place where data center leaders move beyond the basics and tackle real challenges: driving adoption, demonstrating ROI, navigating organizational change, and turning infrastructure data into strategic advantage.

Mar 17, 2026 By udara.ratnakumara In Redgate
This is a guest post from udara.ratnakumara. In a recent webinar I hosted with my colleague Chris Hawkins, Inside a DBA’s Day: What Really Happens and How to Stay Ahead, we talked through the realities of a typical DBA day and the practical ways teams can stay ahead of issues rather than constantly reacting. For many DBAs, the day doesn’t start with coffee. It starts with an alert. A report is suddenly slow. An application query is timing out.

Knowledge Graphs: The Backbone of AI-First Software Delivery | Harness Blog

Mar 17, 2026 By Prateek Mittal In Harness
--- ‍Key Takeaways --- AI can generate code in seconds. It still can’t ship software safely. That gap isn’t about model quality or prompt engineering. It’s about context, and most software organizations don’t have a system that accurately reflects how pipelines, services, environments, policies, and teams actually relate to each other. Without that context, AI doesn’t automate delivery. It amplifies risk.

The Incident You Never Had: Deterministic Simulations w/ Will Wilson (Antithesis CEO)

Mar 17, 2026 By Rootly In Rootly
Most reliability engineering happens after something breaks. Will Wilson thinks that's the wrong place to be. As co-founder and CEO of Antithesis, the autonomous testing platform that just raised $105M in a Series A led by Jane Street, Will has spent years building the infrastructure to catch failure modes before they ever reach production. His starting point is uncomfortable: the testing practices most teams rely on are structurally incapable of finding the bugs that cause real incidents.

Top 10 Container Orchestration Tools & Platforms Worth Checking Out in 2026

Mar 17, 2026 By Konner Bemis In Cycle
Sources: G2 reviews, vendor documentation, 2026 market data. Docker's release in 2013 made Linux namespaces and cgroups accessible without deep kernel expertise, and container adoption took off fast. The value was clear: one portable unit with everything the process needs, running consistently across any host. Teams that were previously shipping VMs with bundled OS, runtime, and application code finally had a better option, and they took it.

Code Optimization: The Cloud Always Collects Its $2,000 Tuition Fee

Mar 17, 2026 By Keith MacKenzie In CloudZero
We hear a lot of war stories from the teams we work with. Horror stories about cloud bills, surprise overages, and the infrastructure decisions that seemed perfectly reasonable at the time. This one comes from Erik Dasque, CTO at Allure Security. It involves a junior developer, a Kubernetes CronJob, and a recurring bill that, if not caught, would have happened on a yearly basis.

5 AI And Cloud Cost Problems That Are Now Everyone's Problem

Mar 17, 2026 By David Aponovich In CloudZero
Not long ago, cloud cost was an engineering problem. FinOps teams owned it, finance leaned in occasionally, and everyone else stayed out of it. Now, that’s changed. AI changed who has skin in the game. CFOs get asked about it in board meetings. CEOs field questions on earnings calls. The audience for cloud cost management has exploded — and that means the conversation CloudZero is built to enable isn’t only a technical one, it’s a business one.
