Searching Certificate Transparency Logs (Part 1)

Every TLS certificate issued by a root Certificate Authority (CA) ends up in one more more publicly accessible logs. These logs, collectively, make up the Certificate Transparency (CT) ecosystem. Unfortunately the logs are not very searchable. You can’t easily type in a domain and find all associated certificates. At CertKit we’re building CT monitoring capabilities to notify our customers when a new certificate is issued.

The AI workload presents the ultimate challenge, highlighting the structural limitations of the traditional hyperscaler model. In this segment from a Civo Navigate London 2025 session, Kelsey Hightower explains exactly why AI adoption forces enterprises to confront flawed architecture and rising astronomical costs.

Engineers, product leaders, sales reps, and CTO Erik Peterson spent three days embedded across the show floor. Their vantage points were complementary: the outbound conversations, the inbound questions, the demos, the technical deep-dives, and the quieter moments between sessions. Five perspectives stood out.

AI API Aggregation: Managing Costs And Complexity Across Multiple LLMs

Running multiple LLMs without aggregation can feel like managing five different clouds with no dashboard. Sure, you can make it work, but you won’t like the bill. And most SaaS teams didn’t start with a multi-LLM strategy. It just happened. You added one model for reasoning, another for summarization, or maybe a fine-tuned version for customer support. Fast-forward six months, and your AI stack looks like a tangle of APIs. And each charges tokens on its own terms.
