What happens when AI agents become direct users of your infrastructure? Michael Kutsch, Staff SRE and Team Lead for Cloud Foundations at PostHog, argues that the next internal developer platform may be a library of agent skills.

Building an Operational Runbook for Exporting and Managing WhatsApp Business Chats

Aug 31, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
WhatsApp is widely used for customer support, supplier coordination and project communication. However, important information can become difficult to manage when it remains inside individual conversations or employee accounts. An operational runbook creates a consistent process for exporting relevant chats, reviewing the files and storing them securely. It also reduces the risk of losing business context during employee offboarding, account changes or project handovers.

Aug 26, 2026 By Nathan Bao In BigPanda
Earlier this year, I had the chance to meet with one of our airline customers. During the meeting, we discussed how to use agentic technology to automate L1 workflows. As one of the largest global airlines, they have many applications and service teams focused on flight-critical, tier 1 environments. Any downtime can cause costly delays and unhappy customers.

The high cost of low-quality L1 NOC outsourcing

Aug 25, 2026 By Jenne Barbour In BigPanda
New research from BigPanda reveals what enterprises spend on outsourced IT operations support, what they get in return, and why leaders are ready to rethink the model. Enterprises spend an average of $5.4 million a year on outsourced IT operations support. That’s a substantial investment. It should produce reliable frontline operations: incidents detected, understood, routed, and resolved with the speed and accuracy the business expects. The research shows a different picture.

How OnPage Eliminates Alert Noise for IT Ops Teams in 2026

Aug 24, 2026 By Michelle Chua In OnPage
IT Ops teams face two failures that pull in opposite directions: responders interrupted so often that they stop reacting, and a truly critical alert lost inside that same flood. Alert noise and alert fatigue describe those two problems, and treating them as one usually makes both worse. This article shows how to reduce interruptions without making critical incidents easier to miss.

Blockchain chain beneath disconnected application layers

Troubleshooting a Blockchain App Outage Across Five Failure Layers

Aug 24, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
A blockchain application can stop working while the chain beneath it continues finalizing blocks. A frozen balance may come from an indexer running behind. A failed transaction may never have reached a remote procedure call (RPC) endpoint; an absent signing prompt points toward the wallet or interface. During an incident, start with scope rather than the most visible symptom. Confirm what still works, then test from the public chain toward the user interface. One broken access path should not be mistaken for a network-wide halt.

Aug 21, 2026 By James Barnes In StatusCake
On Wednesday 19 August, Monzo had an outage. DownDetector logged more than 3,000 reports by midday. Monzo’s own statement was direct about what it did next: it activated Monzo Stand-in, its fully independent backup bank, while it investigated an issue affecting customers. By the end of the day, Monzo said the issue was resolved and all services were back. Stand-in did roughly what it was built to do, keeping essential banking functions running while the primary platform had a problem.
