Your data says one thing. Your AI thinks another.

Aiven and SFEIR walk through what a governed, AI-ready foundation for product data looks like, and what it actually takes to build one. We'll be joined by Céline Thooris, Managing Director of WEnvision (SFEIR group), and Stan Dmitriev, Product Director for Aiven Context, sharing a first-hand view from the field and a concrete next step. What to expect.

Shipped: Get alerted when AI spend spikes, with the cause attached

AI spend now comes from every department, and it can double in a week without anyone deciding it should. The invoice arrives after the month closes. By then the usual response is a spend cap, which slows every team, including the ones getting real work done with AI. You need to know about spend that breaks its normal pattern while there’s still time to act. The alert should reach the person who can act on it, with proper context and detail.

Building Investigations: what it takes to build an AI SRE

At incident.io, we've spent the last two years building Investigations, our AI SRE. When you get paged, it starts investigating straight away, looking across your telemetry, recent deploys, past incidents, docs and code, and posts what it's found in your incident channel (or on your phone, if it's 2am and you're still deciding whether you need to get out of bed). By the time you open your laptop, you're starting at step six of triage rather than step one.

Cycle's Hosted MCP Release Announcement

We are stoked to announce that we have released our very own hosted MCP that allows you to use natural language to interact with and control anything you have running on Cycle.io. Alexander Mattoni, CTO and co-founder of Cycle, shares a few scenarios where the MCP can be useful. With the MCP, Cycle users can communicate with the Cycle platform directly from their preferred AI tool. In minutes, users can provision a new server, deploy an application, or troubleshoot an issue directly from their AI assistant like Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT or Codex.

Android belongs in your CI/CD pipeline

How on-demand Android environments turn validation into a repeatable pipeline stage In the first article, we looked at automation: how Android environments can be created and managed programmatically. In the second, we looked at scaling: how shared infrastructure can make those environments available to more developers, tests, and workloads. This third article looks at the next step: integrating those environments directly into CI/CD.

BigPanda Analytics: AI-driven insights and faster answers across all your ITOps data

See how BigPanda Analytics turns IT operations analytics into instant answers, no hand-built reports required. IT leaders are used to waiting on a report someone on the ops team had to hand build, and every follow-up question starts the cycle over again, while the business keeps moving. This demo shows how IT executives get direct access to IT operations analytics: prebuilt dashboards, AI-powered insights, and a natural language research tool that answers questions in real time.

Best Monitoring Tools With MCP Servers for AI Coding Agents (2026)

Your AI coding agent can read your code, run your tests, and open a pull request. Until recently it could not see what that code does in production. MCP servers from monitoring vendors close that gap. Connect one, and Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot can pull the error, the trace, and the slow query behind a bug report without you copying anything out of a dashboard. Most major monitoring vendors now offer an official MCP server. But they aren’t interchangeable. Some only expose errors.

Grafana Mobile to Desktop Companion App

The Grafana Mobile App lets you triage alerts with help from Assistant from your phone. You can declare an incident or trigger an investigation into an incident in order to get more information so that by the time you get to your desktop, everything is ready for you. Grafanistas Ignacio and Florian go through a use case deep dive, demonstrating the value of the Grafana Mobile Companion app by triggering an investigation, talk to Assistant, and have all the data you need to resolve an incident - all from your phone.
