Cost Control in SAP BTP: The Critical Need for Automation

Apr 28, 2026 By Robert MacDonald In Avantra
The cloud is the cheapest processing you can buy... until you get the bill! Unfortunately, Cloud service costs are notoriously opaque when it comes to transactional and operations costs. The results can be unexpected bills and even damage to the ROI of cloud programs. SAP BTP is no exception, but it doesn't have to be this way. Good FinOps discipline is readily available for BTP - and beyond avoiding "bill shock" such monitoring is just good operational hygiene, preserving budget and resources for productive investment.

Building for the 80%: The New Developer Tier for Apache Kafka

Apr 28, 2026 By Gemma Minihan | In Aiven
When we launched the Free Tier, we made a promise: graduating to a paid tier shouldn’t feel like switching platforms. It should simply feel like tapping “Continue watching in HD”.

Introducing Seer Agent: The answer is already in Sentry. Now you can ask for it.

Apr 28, 2026 By Rahul Chhabria In Sentry
This is a story about an engineer’s night that could have been bad, but ended up… not so bad. A few weeks ago, on a Saturday, our AI debugger, Seer, started failing. Note the big scary spike on the right. The errors were generic failures from the LLM calls, nothing that pointed at a root cause.

Misconfigured Alert Detection: Find the Alerts That Need Tuning

Apr 28, 2026 By Shyam Sreevalsan In netdata
Netdata ships with hundreds of stock alerts. They cover a wide range of infrastructure conditions and they’re designed with sensible defaults. But “sensible defaults” and “correct for your environment” are not the same thing.
