Suppressing OnPage Notifications During Maintenance

Aug 20, 2026 By OnPage Corporation In OnPage
Learn how to suppress OnPage notifications during a scheduled maintenance window so your on-call team isn’t unnecessarily alerted while planned work is underway.

How task containers give AI agents real infrastructure without idle cost

Aug 20, 2026 By Upsun In Upsun
Infrastructure for AI agents usually forces a choice between two bad options. A sandbox is safe but blind, cut off from the data and services that would make the agent's output useful. Full access means paying to keep a container idle between runs, waiting on a prompt that might not arrive for hours. Task containers, which Upsun released on August 12, 2026, are built to avoid that choice. A task container is a single-purpose container defined in a project's.upsun/config.yaml file.

Turn every branch into a production-like environment, automatically

Aug 20, 2026 By Upsun In Upsun
You push a branch. If your team is like most, that branch now waits: for the shared staging server to free up, for someone to remember to refresh the seed data, for whoever broke staging last to fix it. By the time you actually test your change, you're testing it in an environment that's drifted from production in ways nobody fully tracked. The alternative isn't a better staging server. It doesn't need one.

Pain Killer, Not a Vitamin: What Actually Triggers a DCIM Vendor Switch

Aug 20, 2026 By Jad Jebara In Hyperview
Organizations replace their DCIM vendor when an unresolved pain point becomes urgent enough to act on — not because a competing platform has a longer feature list. Understanding what those pain points actually are, for each type of stakeholder in the data center ecosystem, is the clearest way to predict where DCIM displacement is happening now and where vendor stickiness will hold.

Why latency is important when choosing an IP backbone provider

Aug 20, 2026 By Lily Bennett In Console Connect
As businesses rely on cloud computing, AI, real-time communications and globally distributed applications, network latency has become a defining factor in overall network performance. While bandwidth determines how much data can be transferred, latency determines how quickly that data reaches its destination. Even a high-bandwidth connection can deliver poor application performance if latency is too high or inconsistent.

MCP Won't Replace Your Monitoring Tool

Aug 20, 2026 By Dejan Lukić In AppSignal
MCP is generating a lot of hype nowadays (but then again, almost anything that emerges in AI seems to attract hype). The anticipation around it is similar to the level of excitement that would break out if Apple were to finally introduce USB-C to iPhones. To be fair, though, some of that hype is warranted, considering the fact that MCP provides a standardized approach to connecting agents with third-party tools, which significantly simplifies this type of integration (hence the USB-C analogy).

You Aren't As Behind As You Think

Aug 20, 2026 By Chris Griffing In GitKraken
If you look at the people posting to social media the most about AI, you’ll probably feel left behind. They’re running dozens or hundreds of agents and probably shipping more than you. But, they are not representative of the rest of the dev world. They are the 1% of the 1%. The thing that might be missed is that you reading their posts is probably separating you from a much larger cohort of devs that are still trying to figure out how to use AI effectively in their day to day work.
