SLA, SLO, and SLI: Understanding the Foundations of Service Reliability

Oct 28, 2025 By samyatimohanty In Spike
Last week, I ordered a pizza on a food delivery app. And they promised the delivery in 30 minutes. Similarly, all digital services: Apps, websites, cloud platforms, etc, make promises about speed, uptime, and reliability. The difference is how they track and measure those promises. That’s where SLA, SLO, and SLI come in. These three metrics define what “reliable” actually means. They turn a vague claim like “99.9% uptime” into something you can measure, track, and act on.

BygoneSSL and the certificate that wouldn't die

Oct 27, 2025 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit
Turns out the scariest thing about SSL certificates isn’t when they expire. It’s when they don’t. I wrote about the CA/Browser fight that led to the 47-day certificate mandate. CAs crying about lost revenue, browsers flexing their root program authority, enterprises stuck in the middle. But nobody talks about the security research that started it all: BygoneSSL at DEFCON 2018. Two researchers mining Certificate Transparency logs found something surprising.

Data Sovereignty + AI: How Civo's New Cloud Gives You Full Control

Oct 27, 2025 By Civo In Civo

This approach is crucial in modern data pipelines, especially for powering data lakes, analytics platforms, and event-driven applications that depend on up-to-date information. Setting up a CDC pipeline is only the first step.
