Fortifying security for Ubuntu on Azure with Metadata Security Protocol (MSP)
We’re pleased to share a security enhancement for Ubuntu workloads on Microsoft Azure. In collaboration with Microsoft, Ubuntu now supports Azure’s Metadata Security Protocol (MSP)—a feature that hardens access to the Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) and WireServer. On Ubuntu, MSP is enabled by the azure-proxy-agent package, Canonical’s integration of Microsoft’s Guest Proxy Agent (GPA).
Azure Logic Apps & EDI Integration
Join Dan Bass on the Azure on Air podcast as he interviews Microsoft MVP Bill Chestnut from Australia, diving into his journey from mainframe programming to modern integration expertise with BizTalk and Logic Apps.
The evolution of Integration technology through AI
Join us in this exciting podcast episode where integration pioneer Tom shares his 25+ year journey in tech, from message-oriented middleware in 1998 to leading AI projects at Microsoft. Tom dives into how AI is revolutionizing integration as the "backbone" of modern systems - think generative AI agents automating home damage inspections in minutes, reducing manufacturing downtime, and transforming financial trading.
Top 11 Java APM Tools: A Comprehensive Comparison
Are your Java applications running at their optimal performance, or is there room for improvement to make them faster and more efficient? With so many services depending on Java, keeping applications responsive and reliable is a core part of modern software engineering. This blog walks you through the leading Java Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tools, with a clear comparison to help you choose the right option for your needs.
{unscripted} AI SRE
Harness AI SRE is a comprehensive incident management system that uses AI to enable teams to detect, respond to, and resolve incidents efficiently. It integrates with various monitoring, alerting, and collaboration tools to provide a seamless incident resolution workflow.
{unscripted} Harness MCP Server
Harness's MCP Server provides a unified interface for AI agents to interact with Harness's comprehensive suite of DevOps tools and services. The Harness MCP server brings the power of Harness's 150+ DevOps tools directly into your IDE, creating a high level of automation for DevOps, Testing, Security, and FinOps.
{unscripted} AI in Chaos Engineering
Harness AI enhances your chaos engineering capabilities by leveraging artificial intelligence to automate and optimize reliability testing and analysis. One of the challenges of scaling up the Chaos Engineering practice within the organization is skilling up the users to create or run chaos experiments and to come up with solutions to mitigate the risks that are identified during the chaos experiment execution. The Chaos Engineering module comes with an AI Agent called "AI Reliability Agent" that helps in these aspects.
{unscripted} Release Orchestration
For organizations managing complex release trains, especially in regulated industries, Harness Release Orchestration provides the governance and visibility needed to deliver with confidence. And with AI-powered assistance, you can even model new release processes using natural language, which Harness then translates into structured YAML.
{unscripted} AI Verification and Rollback
Our first AI/ML capability, Continuous Verification, made Harness the first Continuous Delivery tool to understand observability telemetry and trigger rollbacks when deployments caused trouble. We knew we could do more to eliminate the friction involved in its setup. Deploying with confidence shouldn't require a coordination meeting between DevOps, SREs, and developers just to configure the right health checks. That’s why we’re introducing the next generation: AI Verification and Rollback.
