Managing DHCP Across Distributed Networks

Managing DHCP across distributed networks gets messy fast. Lease activity changes constantly. Naming conventions drift. Infrastructure changes happen independently across locations. Before long, your team no longer has a complete view of what’s happening across the network. What started as a straightforward service becomes a records problem with real operational consequences.

Sovereign cloud for financial services: Meeting FCA and PRA requirements with UK infrastructure

Financial services in the UK operates under one of the most demanding regulatory frameworks in the world. The FCA and PRA between them set expectations for operational resilience, outsourcing, data governance, and concentration risk that shape every infrastructure decision a regulated firm makes. Cloud adoption in the sector has happened, but it's happened under regulatory scrutiny that's grown steadily more pointed over the last several years.

AI ROI Dispatches: How a non-engineer solved a $300K problem for under $1K

A year ago, the sentence “I just deployed an app on GitHub” wouldn’t have made sense coming from me. I’m the VP of People at CloudZero; code deployments and I were not close friends. That’s changed. In this AI era, non-engineers are building, and I think that’s a genuinely good thing. But only if it’s tied to something that matters.

Shipped: LiteLLM is probably under-counting your Claude spend

If you run Claude through LiteLLM, some of that spend is probably going uncounted – and you can’t see it, precisely because the data isn’t there. Routing through a gateway is messier than it looks: LiteLLM alone can carry Claude several ways – the OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and the Anthropic pass-through proxy that the native SDK and Claude Code use – and each path describes the same call differently.

Upsun Dispatch is available in prerelease

When we introduced Upsun Dispatch last week, we said we were building the platform layer for everything around the code. Today, you can apply to join as a founding design partner. Starting July 1, 2026, a number of engineering organizations will join us in prerelease. This is a selective, high-touch collaboration with teams who want to help shape what comes next. If you missed the introduction, you can catch up on Upsun Dispatch here.

Difference Between Elasticity and Scalability in Cloud Computing

In cloud computing, teams use elasticity and scalability as if they mean the same thing. In reality, the two describe different ways a system handles load, and they solve different problems. Mixing them up can be very expensive. You either pay for capacity that sits idle, or your app buckles the moment traffic spikes, and the bill and the incident report both feel it.

Cloud freedom with AI built in

Most cloud providers give you the hardware and leave you to figure out the rest. Civo AI is different. Chief Innovation Officer Josh Mesout explains how Civo thinks strategically about AI adoption, guiding organisations through the full lifecycle from planning and infrastructure through to running and scaling workloads, powered by best-in-class NVIDIA GPUs.

How to Choose a Cloud Migration Partner in New Jersey: What IT Leaders Need to Verify

A failed cloud migration does not announce itself in advance. Data loss, extended downtime, misconfigured security controls, and compliance gaps surface during or after the move, when reversing course is expensive and the business is already affected. For New Jersey organisations in financial services, healthcare, legal, and manufacturing, the stakes are high enough that choosing the right migration partner is at least as important as choosing the right cloud platform. The hard part is separating providers who can execute a migration cleanly from those who can describe one convincingly.
