High latency and inflexible bandwidth have a domino effect across your entire business, impacting your productivity and revenue. Here’s how to improve it. When we talk about network latency, we’re referring to more than just the occasional lag or slow loading speed. At scale, the consistency of your network can be the difference between your enterprise making and losing money – and latency is where it all starts.

We all know that keeping a server clock "on time" is an ongoing problem that computer scientists have wrestled with for decades. Nowadays, most servers keep time using a quartz crystal oscillator that's powered by a CMOS battery. The crystal vibrates at a very precise frequency and that's how it maintains accuracy (cool right). Events like rebooting and power loss can cause the server to abandon its primary clock source and fall back to an OS-level timekeeping system.

Though KubeCon North America 2024 has officially come to a close, the CNCF's flagship event has left us buzzing with residual excitement. After all, waving goodbye to a crowd of 9,200+ attendees is never easy—especially with Salt Lake City's snow-capped mountains towering impressively in the background. However, it was our conversations with HAProxy booth visitors that truly stole the show.

Last week, Lisbon was jam-packed with innovation as Web Summit 2024 saw over 70,000 attendees and 3,000 companies at one of the largest tech conferences in the world. Across the exhibition floor and track presentations, a clear theme emerged: while AI offers numerous benefits, its large-scale impact on data processing raises concerns among many parties, from consumers, legislators, and government bodies.

Over the past decade, DevOps has transformed IT operations by fostering collaboration between developers and operations teams. It brought agility, automation, and efficiency to software development and deployment. But as IT environments evolve, especially with the rise of cloud-native and hybrid infrastructures, a new paradigm is emerging: GenOps (short for Generative Operations).

Skaffold is a command line tool that facilitates continuous development by streamlining the workflow for building, pushing, and deploying Kubernetes applications. Skaffold handles the complexities of Kubernetes deployments, allowing developers to focus on local application iteration while managing deployments efficiently. Get started with our tutorial.

Let’s face it: managing IT operations today feels a bit like spinning plates in a hurricane. Alerts are pinging, systems are stalling, users are shouting (as if that’ll help), and all the while, you’re drowning in a sea of repetitive, manual tasks. Sound familiar? Welcome to the wonderfully chaotic world of IT. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Data sovereignty has become increasingly critical for UK enterprises, particularly in regulated sectors like finance, healthcare, and the public sector. This is due in part to growing concerns over data security and the need for compliance with increasingly stringent regulations.
