Better context, smarter testing: How to give your AI coding agent direct access to k6 docs

As testing workflows become more AI-assisted, fast access to accurate documentation matters more than ever. Whether you're writing a new load test, troubleshooting an issue, or having an AI agent generate a script for you, you need reliable guidance that keeps pace with the way you work. But most documentation still lives in a browser. Every time you or your agent needs to verify an API or look up a best practice, you're forced to leave your terminal or editor and interrupt your workflow.

What an AI SRE agent actually finds when you point it at a broken Kubernetes cluster

‍ Most of the AI features that shipped into observability tools this year summarize alerts. You get a paragraph that restates the dashboard you were already looking at, and the agent never reads the cluster itself, because giving it cluster access is a security conversation nobody wanted to start. This walkthrough starts it.

Builder in the loop: what production agents were missing before AURA

Builder in the loop is a Mezmo interview series with the engineers, product leaders, and operators shaping AURA. Each installment looks past the product layer to explore the decisions, tradeoffs, and lessons involved in building agents for real production work. This installment features Mike Shearer, the engineer who built AURA and, until recently, its only developer. AI agents are easy to believe in when the task is small.

Top 10 Digital Experience Monitoring Tools in 2026

Server dashboards can look healthy while users wait. Only 51% of the 1,000 most popular mobile sites pass Core Web Vitals, according to the HTTP Archive's 2025 Web Almanac. Closing that gap is the job of digital experience monitoring tools. Some watch customers on your website and mobile apps, others watch staff on laptops and virtual desktops, and a third watches the network in between. Pick the wrong type and you lose a review cycle.

10 Best Real User Monitoring Tools Compared for 2026

Most IT teams learn their application feels slow when a customer complains. Server metrics never measure what a person on a phone waits for. The best real user monitoring tools close that gap by collecting timings from your users' browsers. Choosing one got harder this year, because the measurement standard moved. In this blog, we compare the best tools for real user monitoring, including their pros, cons, and key features. By the end you will know which one fits your stack.

Data pipeline monitoring 101: Tracking health and performance across the data stack

Data pipelines are systems for moving and processing data. They are made up of concatenated services and data stores that programmatically ingest data from upstream sources; filter, transform, enrich, and route that data; and deliver it to downstream consumers.

NHS and healthcare data on UK Sovereign Cloud: A compliance primer

Healthcare data sits at the top of the sensitivity hierarchy. Patient records are personal data under UK GDPR. Medical records are separately regulated under sector-specific frameworks. Clinical research data may be subject to research-specific rules. Genomics data carries residency implications that go beyond standard personal data protections. NHS data specifically is governed by frameworks that add UK public sector expectations on top of the healthcare-specific ones.

Where AI Media Actually Slows Teams Down - And It Isn't Generation

The constraint on AI-generated video and imagery inside most organisations is no longer the model. It is the review loop, the consistency of a set, and a cost model nobody agreed on in advance - and none of those three get solved by switching to a better generator. In short: budget for iteration rather than render time; build a reference library before the first deliverable; define what a project's generation allowance is up front; and evaluate models on how they respond to a single prompt edit rather than on peak output quality.

5 Best CAFM and Facilities Management Software Providers in 2026

Managing facilities across multiple businesses, sites, assets, and contractors can quickly become a full-time administrative job. That's where Computer-Aided Facilities Management (CAFM) software comes in. It gives teams a central place to manage reactive maintenance, planned preventative maintenance (PPM), assets, contractors, compliance, and more.
