Opensearch, AI, and a Grab-bag of topics with Jay Miller and Dima Kan

Fireside chat between Jay Miller, Developer Advocate at Aiven and Dima Kan, Staff Product Manager for OpenSearch about the role of search in AI. AIVEN DATA PLATFORM The Aiven Platform is more than a collection of open source services for streaming, storing and analyzing data. The platform ensures that all services run reliably and securely in the clouds of your choice, are observable, and can easily be integrated with each other and with external 3rd party tools.

Valkey Observability with BetterDB on Aiven Runtime - Kristiyan Ivanov

My interview guest is Kristiyan Ivanov creator of BetterDB. In this conversation we talk about building tools to observe Valkey and Redis as well as AI Observability, the Valkey Community and More!

Juggling AI tools works, until it does not

This isn't a teardown. This stack is a genuinely reasonable way to start. An AI-first editor handles day-to-day writing. A terminal-based coding agent takes on tasks that need more autonomy: a full feature, a migration, a stubborn bug. A few scripts connect the pieces, trigger a run, and post a result somewhere. An observability tool checks what happened after the fact. Every part of that is a real, capable tool. For the first few months, on a small team, it works.

Document the Process, Not the Kernel Version

When people say "document everything," they don't mean literally everything — they mean document what matters. Nobody needs to know the exact kernel version on a server build years from now. What they need is the process: how to get there again, step by step. Watch the full IT Leadership Lab session — linked above.

Managing Claude Code Sessions Through Lynx

At Tigera, we spend a lot of time thinking about agent security: identity, policy, runtime controls, and the record left behind after an agent acts. Coding agents create an interesting problem because, in most organizations, they didn’t arrive through the front door. Few companies ran a platform evaluation and rolled Claude Code out to 500 developers. Developers installed it themselves.

What is Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST)?

Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST) finds vulnerabilities in running applications by monitoring code from the inside. Learn how it works and where it fits. Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST) is a method for finding security vulnerabilities in an application while it's running, by instrumenting the code and observing how it behaves during normal use or testing.

Why Engineers Ignore Cloud Cost Optimization & Fixes

Learn why engineers ignore cloud cost optimization and how to build a culture of FinOps governance. See how Harness helps. Engineers often overlook cloud costs due to lack of visibility, fragmented tooling, and competing delivery priorities. Organizations can fix this by embedding FinOps guardrails into developer workflows and providing real-time cost feedback during build cycles.

SAST vs SCA vs DAST vs IAST: choosing the right scan for the right stage

SAST vs SCA vs DAST vs IAST: a clear breakdown of what each scan finds, when to run it, and how to combine them across your SDLC. Most AppSec teams don't run one type of scan - they run several, at different points in the pipeline, because no single tool sees the whole picture. This article breaks down SAST vs SCA vs DAST vs IAST: what each one actually tests, where it fits in the software development lifecycle (SDLC), and how to combine them without duplicating effort or drowning developers in findings.

One Cloud, Every Environment: The New Civo Dashboard | Civo Navigate London

Your infrastructure lives everywhere. Your view of it shouldn't. Civo CTO Dinesh Majrekar gives the first look at the new Civo dashboard. It's built around one idea: however many regions, clusters or environments you run, managing them should feel like one cloud. Civo makes complexity a thing of the past.
