Why More UK Firms are Turning to Colocation for their AI Workloads

Why More UK Firms are Turning to Colocation for their AI Workloads

Jul 31, 2026 By OpsMatters In Pulsant
The last few years have seen AI conversations dominated by the need for investment in hyperscale infrastructure as firms race to build ever larger training models. But as those conversations evolve, the emphasis is shifting to the next phase of AI adoption, focusing on the scaling of use cases and real-world value.

Flamegraphs Find It. Replay Proves It.

Jul 31, 2026 By Matt LeRay In Speedscale
I made an API endpoint 13 times faster. Then I realized my first verification only checked the status, headers, and response schema. I had not checked the totals. I had made the bug faster. That is the problem with giving an AI coding agent one kind of evidence. A CPU profile can show where the application is slow, but not whether an optimization preserves behavior. A traffic replay can prove that behavior stayed stable, but not explain why the code burns CPU.

Software is a team sport. Most AI tools forgot that.

Jul 31, 2026 By Upsun In Upsun
Every AI coding tool ships the same promise: your developers, faster. Autocomplete in the IDE, agents in the terminal, a working prototype before lunch. And it delivers, at least for the person holding the keyboard. The problem is that most of what it takes to ship software was never a solo activity, and that is the part the market keeps skipping.

What is FP&A? Financial planning and analysis in the AI spend era

Jul 31, 2026 By Lyne Carolyne In CloudZero
FP&A stands for financial planning and analysis. It is the corporate finance function responsible for budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and decision support. If you're asking what is FP&A in practice: FP&A teams build the annual operating plan, project revenue and expenses, explain gaps between plan and actuals, and give leadership the numbers behind strategic decisions. Accounting reports what happened. FP&A models what happens next.

LLM cost optimization: 7 strategies to cut inference spend

Jul 31, 2026 By Lyne Carolyne In CloudZero
LLM cost optimization is the practice of cutting what you spend on large language models, mostly inference, without losing the quality that makes the AI worth running. The biggest levers are routing requests to cheaper models, caching repeated tokens, batching anything that can wait, trimming prompts, right-sizing models, cutting calls you do not need, and putting one gateway and cost view in front of all of it.

Kepler Is in Public Preview: One Task, Every Repo, Every Agent

Jul 31, 2026 By Jade Nangah In GitKraken
A faster car doesn’t get you home faster if the freeway is still jammed. That is the problem most teams run into once they add a second, third, or fourth AI coding agent to the mix. More agents generate more code. They do not automatically generate more finished work, because someone still has to track which agent is waiting on input, which one just opened a pull request, and which one has been quietly stuck for twenty minutes. Kepler is GitKraken’s answer to that traffic jam.

Agent Observability Deep Dive Demo | Grafana Cloud

Jul 31, 2026 By Grafana In Grafana
Grafana AI Observability is our new database and platform for observing AI Agents. Over the past year at Grafana Labs, we built Agents and we needed a way to understand how they are performing, what are the costs associated with them, what's the error rate or time to the first token as well as how they are behaving. Grafana Staff Engineer, Ivana Hučková provides a deep dive demo on how Grafana AI Observability connects our experience building Agents with our experience building observability systems.
