The AI hype is undeniable. Buzzwords like ‘machine learning’, ‘deep learning’, and ‘artificial intelligence’ have permeated boardrooms, media, and tech conferences. However, recent market movements suggest that AI might be at the ‘peak of inflated expectations’. Nvidia, a leading player in AI hardware, has seen its stock plummet by about 20% over the last month (8th July to 8th August 2024).

Last year, we released Catalog—the connected map of everything in your organization. Catalog was built with the aim of tackling one of the most painful parts of incident response: contextualizing problems and understanding their place within your organization.

Modernizing your IT infrastructure for FedRAMP certification is a complex journey — legacy systems, tight budgets, and the looming shadow of compliance can feel overwhelming. It doesn’t have to be that way: we're here to simplify the process and help you navigate the mandatory steps toward certification.

Picture a gruff-voiced sergeant from the classic TV series “Dragnet,” but instead of solving crimes, they are navigating the complex world of software delivery. Their catchphrase, “Just the facts” isn’t just a catch phrase – it’s the mantra we need in today’s high-stakes world of DevOps, AppSec and Compliance.

In our journey through the evolution of compliance in the DevOps era, we’ve seen the limitations of traditional compliance methods and the high stakes of compliance failures. Manual processes, siloed teams, and a lack of automation have turned compliance into a bottleneck, hindering the agility promised by DevOps.

If cost optimization is your only reason for adopting Kubernetes and containers, you might be in for a rude surprise — many companies find that costs increase after moving to Kubernetes. Even companies who adopt Kubernetes for other reasons, like time-to-market advantages, should follow basic cost control best practices to stay within the budget. Optimizing cloud costs related to running Kubernetes doesn’t have to involve trade-offs for performance or availability.

Prometheus and its querying language, PromQL, have several functions that perform various calculations on their data. One of the most widely used functions is rate(); however, it is also one of the most misunderstood.

Cloud migration is the process of moving your infrastructure, applications, and data to the cloud. While the potential benefits—like cost savings, scalability, and modernization—are significant, the risks are just as high if you don’t have a solid plan in place. Without clear strategies, you could face unexpected costs, technical challenges, and security issues.

n our previous exploration of The Punchcard Paradigm, we traced the roots of modern compliance practices back to the early days of computing. We saw how the physical constraints of punchcards shaped programming practices and how those practices lingered long after the technology had evolved. Now, let’s dive deeper into why modern compliance is more critical than ever in today’s digital landscape.
