Merge conflicts waste hours of development time every week. The Git branching strategy you pick directly shapes how often these conflicts appear and how painful they are to fix. GitKraken simplifies conflict resolution with visual tools that help you spot problems before they become blockers. This guide walks you through a step-by-step decision process for selecting between GitFlow and trunk-based development.

A long time ago, in a SOC far, far away…analysts were drowning in alerts, chasing context across fragmented screens, and watching real threats slip past detection gaps. Today, the Rebellion fights back. This isn’t a release built around a single marquee feature. It’s the result of our team listening to you on the front lines with an ear for removing the friction that makes your jobs harder than they need to be.

In the latest episode of This Month in Datadog, Jeremy shares how to run autonomous Cloud SIEM investigations, remediate vulnerabilities with auto-generated fixes, and use natural language to explore Datadog. Later, Sumedha Mehta spotlights the Datadog MCP Server, which gives AI agents real-time access to Datadog’s observability data. Then, Chetan Sharma walks through Datadog Experiments, which measures how product changes impact the user journey.

Built on Postgres, Supabase is an open source, all-in-one backend platform for developers who want to ship applications without managing infrastructure. This makes it especially popular with frontend developers and vibe coders who may have little to no database expertise. Datadog's Supabase integration provides high-level infrastructure metrics, but developers also need query-level visibility to easily diagnose, optimize, and trace performance issues back to their source.

Do you receive 50 million log lines per day and struggle to see what actually matters? Health checks, heartbeat pings, connection pool messages—they all drown out the errors and anomalies you're trying to find. Most teams deal with this by writing filter rules to drop the noisy patterns. But those rules are manual, per-pattern, and brittle. A new deployment changes a log format and the filter misses it. A new service starts logging a chatty startup sequence nobody thought to exclude.

GPU infrastructure is expensive and increasingly central to production workloads. Whether you’re running ML training jobs, inference serving, video transcoding, or HPC workloads, understanding what your GPUs are actually doing, and what’s going wrong when performance degrades, is not optional.

Drive failures are a matter of when, not if. The good news is that most modern drives warn you before they fail, using S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology). The challenge is collecting that data across a fleet and making it actionable. The new inventory-smartctl module makes this straightforward with a single cfbs add. Once installed, the module auto-detects all storage devices, caches their SMART data, and exposes it as inventory attributes in Mission Portal.

Application security & engineering teams are under pressure to move faster, cover more, and reduce the operational drag that often comes with security testing. But in practice, two problems keep slowing teams down and adding friction.

Most IT teams rely on Microsoft Teams Admin Center as their default monitoring tool to find and fix Microsoft Teams issues, but there's a gap between what it shows and what actually causes call quality problems. Teams Admin Center gives you Microsoft's perspective on what happened after an MS Teams call ended. It doesn't tell you what was happening on your network, on your users' devices, or in the five minutes before the complaints started coming in.
