Infrastructure Cost Visibility: The Missing Link in Modern IT Decision-Making

Apr 15, 2026 By Kristy Slimmer In Galileo

The expectations placed on infrastructure leaders have shifted in a way that is subtle on the surface but significant in practice, and much of that shift comes down to infrastructure cost visibility. Reliability and performance still matter, but they are no longer the differentiators they once were. Most enterprise environments are stable by design, and uptime is assumed. What has changed is the level of scrutiny around cost and decision-making.

The 9 Application Performance Metrics You Need to Measure and Why

Apr 15, 2026 By Jack Rothrock In Scout

The tension between shipping speed and application performance has not changed much since this post was first published in 2020. What has changed is how quickly a team can detect, diagnose, and fix a problem. That difference is significant enough to warrant a revisit. The scenario from the original still plays out every week. Sales brings a priority feature that might degrade performance for some customers. The developer ships it and watches what happens.

AppSignal MCP Now Supports OAuth - and GitHub Copilot

Apr 15, 2026 By Serena Chou In AppSignal

When we launched AppSignal MCP in beta, OAuth was on the roadmap but not yet shipped. We were issuing static bearer tokens — enough to connect Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf, but not the one-click install path in the MCP Registry, and not GitHub Copilot's recommended setup. That's fixed.

When AWS us-east-1 Fails, Much of the Internet Fails With It

Apr 15, 2026 By James Barnes In StatusCake

There are cloud outages, and then there are us-east-1 outages. That distinction matters because failures in AWS’s Northern Virginia region rarely feel like ordinary regional incidents. They tend instead to expose something larger and more uncomfortable: too much of the modern internet still behaves as though one place is an acceptable concentration point for infrastructure, control, recovery, and communication. When us-east-1 goes wrong, the problem is not only that workloads fail.

Apr 15, 2026 By Checkly In Checkly
