The Role of AI Chatbots in Modern DevOps Incident Response

Modern DevOps environments demand speed, accuracy, and continuous availability, especially when incidents disrupt critical systems. As organizations scale their infrastructure, traditional response methods often struggle to keep pace with the volume and complexity of alerts.

The AI Paradox: Why You Have To Spend More And Can't Explain Where It Goes

AI adoption costs are going parabolic. The companies that can see what they're spending will invest with confidence. Everyone else is flying blind. Every company adopting AI is facing the same problem: the cost of AI adoption in products, in operations, and especially in engineering is accelerating with no alignment between spend and value.

Top-Down FinOps: Align Cloud Spend with Real Business Strategy

In this episode of FinOps on Azure, Michael Stephenson sits down with Frank Contrepois, independent FinOps voice and co-host of The FinOps Guys podcast — to explore what it really means to manage cloud costs from a business-first perspective.
