We Measured AI Impact for 12 Months. Here's What Actually Happened.
When we rolled out AI coding tools across our engineering team, the first few weeks felt great. Developers were enthusiastic. Acceptance rates looked healthy. Everyone said they felt more productive. Then my CEO asked me a simple question: “Is it working?” And I realized I didn’t have a good answer. Feeling productive and being productive are not the same thing.
Are Businesses Leaving the Cloud?
Learn the truth about cloud repatriation, the motivations behind it, and whether it’s really happening as much as you think. For years, the cloud has been the default solution for businesses wanting speed of deployment with quick and easy scalability. And while the cloud promises endless resources at your fingertips, a lot of network teams are having the conversation about whether to pull their workloads back out of the public cloud and run them on their own hardware or private cloud again.
What Companies Get Wrong About Autonomous IT, And What Actually Moves Them Forward
Many organizations approach Autonomous IT with the assumption that adding more tools, more data, or more automation will eventually produce self-governing operations. This assumption creates the illusion of progress. Complexity does not resolve itself when new systems are layered on top of existing ones. In most environments, each new tool adds another interpretation of the truth, which compounds the cognitive load on teams and forces more reconciliation, not less.

Kubernetes Vs. OpenStack: How They Differ, How They Work Together, And When To Use Each
Kubernetes and OpenStack are not competitors. They operate at different layers of the stack and are often used together. OpenStack manages cloud infrastructure such as compute, storage, and networking. Kubernetes runs on top of that infrastructure to deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications. Teams often compare them as alternatives, but in practice, Kubernetes frequently runs on OpenStack.
Your Cloud Economics Pulse For February 2026
Welcome to February’s Cloud Economics Pulse, CloudZero’s monthly look at cloud spend as AI moves from experiment to expectation. Last month, we closed out 2025 with a settling: provider shares locked in, compute softened, and AI claimed more of the mix (big surprise there). January confirmed those patterns weren’t year-end hustle and bustle. They signify a new baseline. Also, the Big Three (AWS, GCP, Azure) barely moved. They’re as entrenched as can be.
