What is AI SRE? The Complete Guide to AI-Assisted Site Reliability Engineering

It's 2:47 AM. PagerDuty fires. You open a Slack alert and see: p99 latency spike on checkout-service. You SSH into the host, check dashboards in four tabs, grep logs for the last 20 minutes, and eventually find a slow query introduced in a deploy six hours ago. It took 34 minutes. You resolved it, w Prathamesh works as an evangelist at Last9, runs SRE stories - where SRE and DevOps folks share their stories, and maintains o11y.wiki - a glossary of all terms related to observability.

Capturing HTTP Request and Response Bodies in .NET Traces with PHI Redaction

> Standard OTel.NET instrumentation captures headers, status codes, and timing — not request or response bodies. Here's how to add body capture to your traces while keeping PHI out of your observability backend.

How is Agentic AI fundamentally different from earlier automation?

Autonomous operations has been the goal for years. But most “automation” never got us there—it just helped teams keep up. Now that’s changing. Agentic AI introduces a fundamentally different model:– Purpose-built agents, not static workflows– Real-time decisioning, not predefined rules– Collaboration across agents, not isolated tasks Instead of automating steps, agentic AI enables systems to **reason, adapt, and act**—at a speed and scale humans simply can’t match. That’s what turns autonomous operations from a long-standing ambition into something actually achievable.

Database Performance Monitoring: Query-Level Visibility Across 14+ Databases

Netdata has always collected database metrics: connections, throughput, replication lag, buffer cache hit ratios, and so on. These tell you that something is wrong, but they don’t tell you why. When your PostgreSQL response time spikes, the metric alone doesn’t tell you which query is responsible. For that, you’ve traditionally needed to SSH into the box, connect to the database, and run diagnostic queries manually. Or set up a separate database monitoring tool entirely.

The Claude Bill is Too Damn High #speedscale #claude #aiagents #aicoding #devops #llms

Stop overpaying for AI reasoning by trading expensive GPU cycles for efficient, deterministic testing. This video explores how tools like linters and traffic replay can complement Claude, helping you fix bugs more accurately while cutting token usage by up to 50%. Visit: speedscale.com to learn more.

Shipping trustworthy code with Chunk CLI

AI coding agents are fast. They generate functions, refactor modules, and wire up boilerplate faster than any human. What they don’t do by default is enforce the conventions a specific team has agreed on: the lint rules, the review patterns that senior engineers flag on every PR. A generated diff looks clean until someone runs CI or reads it carefully.

Kubex Named a 2026 Leader by GigaOm

Industry analyst recognition means something different from an award. GigaOm does not hand out trophies. They evaluate products against a defined capability framework and tell the market where vendors actually stand. By that measure, Kubex has been named a Leader in two of GigaOm’s 2026 Radar Reports: Kubernetes Resource Management and Cloud Resource Optimization. In the Kubernetes report, we are positioned as an Outperformer. In Cloud Resource Optimization, a Fast Mover.
