Auvik Brings Multi-Vendor Network Intelligence to AI Agents in Cisco Cloud Control

Jun 2, 2026 By Momoko Ishida In Auvik
Modern IT infrastructure is messy, spanning multiple vendors, cloud platforms, and on-premises systems, with critical data spread across separate tools. This patchwork makes troubleshooting harder for IT teams and AI agents alike, forcing them to piece together operational context from different domains and interfaces before they can act with a complete understanding of the environment. But what if AI agents could pull operational data from across your diverse IT environment and correlate it for you?

Jun 2, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
Executives have always understood the importance of protecting valuable business assets. Buildings are insured against damage, data is protected through cybersecurity systems, and legal safeguards exist to minimize operational risk.

Your AI agent is fixing the wrong service

Jun 1, 2026 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale
Everyone wants an AI agent factory in 2026. Autonomous agents fixing bugs and shipping features while you sleep. I’ve been building toward that myself. But the error rates don’t support the fantasy. The best AI coding agents in the world fix about 50% of real bugs on SWE-bench verified. Half the time they fail. And AI-generated code produces 1.7x more issues than human-written code.

How we cut Spark compute costs by 44% with agentic AI and Datadog Jobs Monitoring

Jun 1, 2026 By Charles Yu In Datadog
Spark jobs only get more expensive and harder to debug as they scale. It’s a problem we’ve run into ourselves. Our Referential Data Platform team builds and maintains the knowledge graph that maps relationships between customers’ observability entities. ServiceQueryEdge is at the center of that graph, mapping service entities to their associated metric and log queries.

AI ROI is an allocation problem

Jun 1, 2026 By Scott Castle In CloudZero
AI spend is going parabolic, and the labels on the bill (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) are about all a CXO gets to work with. The hard part of tying that spend to outcomes is structural. A major portion of AI spend isn’t COGS. It’s the spend on coding agents producing the software, the spend on building marketing content, the spend on custom sales tooling, the spend on Intercom agents and Sybill analysis.

Inside the Grafana AI Team Weekly: AI Observability for the OTel demo and LLMSpec (May 12, 2026)

Jun 1, 2026 By Grafana In Grafana
This is an excerpt from a real AI team weekly meeting where we talk about the stuff we build and occasionally also demo them! In this one, Principal Software Engineer Sven Großmann demos how he integrated AI Observability into the OTel demo, complete with the guards feature he introduced last week, and Principal Software Engineer Yas Ekinci gives a rare glimpse of LLMSpec, the internal counterpart of the o11ybench benchmark that we use to evaluate Assistant.

Why AI-Enhanced Managed Services Providers Are Becoming Essential for Modern IT Operations

Jun 1, 2026 By Chad Atchley In C1
For years, managed service providers (MSP) were viewed primarily as a way to reduce operational overhead. Organizations outsourced monitoring, support, and maintenance to improve uptime, contain costs, and free internal teams from routine IT tasks. Today, that model is no longer enough.

From Cleanup to Animation in One Workspace: Redefining the Editing Loop

From Cleanup to Animation in One Workspace: Redefining the Editing Loop

Jun 1, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
For the past several months, I have been watching a pattern emerge in how people actually use AI image tools. The pattern is not about any single feature. It is about how often a task that starts as a simple cleanup request evolves into something entirely different. A user uploads a product shot to remove a stray reflection. Then they wonder what the same image would look like with a different background. Then they think about turning it into a short social video. Each step is logical, but traditional workflows treat each step as a separate job requiring a separate tool.
