Security Integrations in Observability Self-Hosted

Integrating security data with observability data provides a comprehensive view for better threat detection and response. Security observability helps connect the dots between seemingly innocent events that, when correlated, reveal complex attack patterns. SolarWinds security products integrate into observability self-hosted, including Security Event Manager for log data and event correlation, Access Rights Management for identifying potential attack vectors, configuration management for compliance monitoring, and Patch Manager for tracking critical updates.

Getting Started with XcodeBuildMCP: Let AI Agents Debug Your iOS Apps

XcodeBuildMCP gives AI agents the ability to build, test, and debug native iOS and macOS apps. In this hands-on workshop, we show you how to use the open source MCP server to unlock the full developer loop — build, run, debug, interact, and verify — without leaving your preferred AI coding environment.

AURA in Practice: Mezmo's SRE bot, demo walkthrough

A walkthrough of the Slack-based SRE bot Mezmo's engineering team built on AURA, the open-source agent harness, running against Mezmo's own production tooling. Adrian Furlong shows the bot answering questions in a DM with tool calls visible inline, then in a shared channel where it reads the conversation before responding. He opens a fresh PagerDuty incident on camera. The webhook fires AURA, and within seconds, the agent posts a triage note back on the incident and a structured analysis in the dedicated incident channel.

Why Mandating AI Tools Backfires on Engineering Teams

Responsible AI adoption for engineering teams starts with culture, not compliance. In this GitKon talk, Rizel Scarlett (Tech Lead of Open Source DevRel at Block) shares how Block helped thousands of engineers actually want to use AI tools, including Goose, Cursor, Claude Code, and more, without mandates, vibe coding disasters, or security gaps.
