Modern IT ecosystems have undergone a profound transformation.

How Upstash Monitors Every Redis Replica with Checkly
There's a support ticket every SRE dreads: "is something wrong with my database?" The outage is bad enough. Worse is the possibility that the customer knew first. At Upstash, we treat that scenario as two failures rather than one: the incident itself, and the uptime monitoring gap that let a customer beat us to it. We write a postmortem for the gap, too.

Electric Vehicles are revolutionising transport. With the increasing shift away from traditional fuelled vehicles, the demand for efficient charging services has become more important than ever. Charging facilities have become a necessary service for private vehicle owners and public transport alike.

AI writes code in seconds, but delivery still takes days
The pitch for AI coding was speed. Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, whatever you’re running, they all generate business logic faster than you can review it. That part is real. But look at what happens after the code gets written and the numbers get ugly. CircleCI’s 2026 State of Software Delivery Report found AI drove a 59% increase in average throughput.

Claude Code Monitoring at Scale: Gateways and Routing With OpenTelemetry
Chelsea and I recently wrote a guide on how we monitor Claude Code usage internally with Bindplane.
