A Recap of 2025

Jan 5, 2026 By Kaushik In Spike

In the past, our yearly recaps were mostly about numbers. What we shipped, how much Spike grew, and a long list of stats. See past recaps: 2023, 2024. But 2025 felt different to me. It had many moments that shaped how Spike as a product and the company looks today. Some of them were exciting. Some were uncomfortable, and all of them changed how I think about building Spike. We’re still bootstrapped and operating lean, with a team of fewer than ten people.

2026 - the year of repatriation, resilience, and regional rebalancing

Jan 5, 2026 By Rob Coupland In Pulsant

2025 was a tough year for businesses, with slow growth, high costs, cyber risks and geopolitical uncertainties all contributing to a challenging climate. More than ever, businesses must innovate to survive and grow, and digital infrastructure will play a key role in 2026. Last year I predicted a pivotal year for cloud strategy, with repatriation gaining momentum due to shifting legislative, geopolitical, and technological pressures. This trend has accelerated, with a growing focus on data sovereignty.

Troubleshoot faster with the GitLab Source Code integration in Datadog

Jan 5, 2026 By Eric Metaj In Datadog

Developers and SREs who rely on GitLab to develop their services often face significant friction when troubleshooting errors or fixing issues that degrade code quality. To understand the context of a problem, they resort to tab-hopping between observability tools and GitLab, connecting stack traces, spans, and profiles back to the right files and commits.

DNS-PERSIST-01 validates a domain once to get certificates forever

Jan 5, 2026 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit

With the ACME protocol, to issue a certificate you have to prove you control the domain. The CA gives you a challenge, you complete it, and they issue your cert. The trouble is that every validation method has tradeoffs. And as certificate lifetimes get shorter, those tradeoffs will get more painful. DNS-PERSIST-01 is a new approach coming in 2026 that trades proof-of-freshness for easier operations.

From Promise to Practice: What Real AI SRE Can Actually Do When Production Breaks

Jan 4, 2026 By Itiel Shwartz In Komodor

We’ve written before about the advantages of training an AI SRE on real telemetry data rather than generic Kubernetes documentation. We’ve explained why RAG augmentation based on actual high-scale workload patterns produces better results than LLMs trained on generic scenarios or forum threads. The theory makes sense, the architecture is sound, and the approach is defensible.

Is Claude Code Spying for OpenAI? #speedscale #anthropic #openai #claude #codingagent

Jan 2, 2026 By Speedscale In Speedscale

While analyzing network traffic, we found huge amounts of telemetry including chat snippets, being sent to statsig.anthropic.com. The irony? Statsig was recently acquired by OpenAI. In this video, we use proxymock to intercept the traffic and show you exactly what’s being sent from your terminal to Anthropic (and technically, OpenAI’s infrastructure).

Peeking Under the Hood of Claude Code

Jan 2, 2026 By Speedscale In Speedscale

Everyone is talking about Claude Code, but few people understand the machinery running in the background. Today, we’re opening up the terminal to see how Anthropic’s coding agent manages state, runs tests, and fixes its own bugs. From the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to its unique React-based terminal UI, find out what makes Claude Code the most "senior" feeling AI assistant on the market.
