Introducing Harness Agent DLC: Extending your SDLC to AI Agents

Harness Agent DLC: Ship AI Agents to Production Safely Building an AI agent is easy. Getting one into production safely is where teams get stuck. Harness Agent DLC extends the software delivery lifecycle to AI agents, giving teams a clear path to evaluate, deploy, secure, observe, and optimize agents in production. Learn more: Because agents dynamically choose their own tools, APIs, and actions, their behavior can change every time they run. Harness Agent DLC gives engineering teams the controls needed to move beyond experiments and operate agents safely at scale.

How to Optimize Cloudflare Connectivity for Performance, Cost, and Control

Learn why adding a dedicated network edge between Cloudflare and your cloud can deliver faster, more predictable, cost-efficient traffic. There was a time when every user first connected to the corporate network before accessing business applications. The network perimeter was well defined, and IT controlled it; security was centralized behind firewalls, VPN concentrators, and proxy servers. Today, that perimeter no longer exists.

DNS Spy Now Connects to Amazon Route 53. Read-Only, Every Record, Always in Sync.

When we launched DNS provider sync with six providers, one name came up in nearly every "what about..." email: Amazon Route 53. That makes sense. Route 53 runs DNS for an enormous share of production infrastructure, and it does not support zone transfers — so until now, monitoring a Route 53 zone meant relying on autodiscovery's educated guesses. Today that gap closes.

Canonical announces the Enterprise Store as part of Ubuntu Pro

The Enterprise Store makes software distribution manageable and scalable behind firewalls or in air-gapped environments. Available with an Ubuntu Pro subscription, the Enterprise Store respects the security protocols of strict environments, in a way that is controllable, auditable, and predictable.

DRIVE Deep Dive: Vigilance

This is the fourth post in our DRIVE Deep Dive series. Over the coming weeks we're examining each pillar of the DRIVE framework in turn. For the complete model, download the full DRIVE framework. Our last post covered Initiatives. Up next: Efficiency. The bottleneck on writing code is gone, and the industry is responding the way it always does when a constraint disappears: by producing more.

Optical Freedom in the Age of AI: Why Thin Transponders Are Reshaping Optical Network Design

AI is driving the next wave of digital transformation, but it is also creating an unexpected challenge for network operators: optical capacity is becoming a strategic bottleneck. The same AI boom fueling billions of dollars in data center investment is placing unprecedented demand on optical networking infrastructure.

New dcTrack Connector for NetBox

NetBox is an open-source platform used for network infrastructure management and documentation, helping organizations track networks, devices, IP addresses, circuits, and racks. Sunbird’s new NetBox connector programmatically pulls device, port, and cabling data from NetBox into dcTrack using a preconfigured base XML connector, driving automation and giving you a single pane of glass and single source of truth across your entire infrastructure.

From Visibility to Prediction: How AI-Driven Operations Build Trust at Scale

Visibility was once the finish line. Centralized monitoring and correlated logs represented meaningful progress. But hybrid cloud environments continued to expand in scale and complexity. Visibility alone no longer guarantees clarity. Across eleven operator interviews, the recurring challenge was not data scarcity. It was interpretation. Telemetry volumes were abundant. Correlation required manual effort. Alert floods introduced friction. Systems were visible, but the path to decisive action was unclear.

Catch Next.js Hydration Errors With Playwright Tests

Playwright can catch Next.js hydration errors by listening for browser console failures and then exercising an interaction that only works after React has attached its event handlers. This detects pages that return 200 OK and display server-rendered content but fail when a customer clicks, types, or navigates. Next.js defines hydration as React attaching event handlers to the server-rendered HTML.

MCP for SLA Monitoring: Uptime, MTTR & MTTA

MCP for SLA monitoring gives an AI agent direct access to measured uptime, mean time to resolve (MTTR), mean time to acknowledge (MTTA), outages, and reliability risks. With Hyperping, you can ask Claude, Cursor, Codex, or another MCP client for an SLA report and get an answer based on your live monitoring data instead of copying numbers between dashboards. The distinction between monitoring data and SLA compliance matters. Hyperping measures availability and incident response.
