Why the Future of Monitoring Is Agentless
Traditionally, monitoring software has relied heavily on agent-based approaches for extracting telemetry data from systems. Observability requires better telemetry than agents currently provide. OpenTelemetry is driving advances in this area by creating a standard format and APIs to create, transmit, and store telemetry data. This unlocks new opportunities in observability.

Is Artificial Intelligence Taking over DevOps?
AI tools are slowly replacing the role of the developer – just as DevOps did before – and will eventually supplant DevOps entirely. Assessing whether that prediction is true is tricky. In this article, we’ll look at what AI promises for the development process, assess whether it can really ever take over from human developers, and what DevOps is likely to look like in a decades’ time.

Using Cloud Native Buildpacks to Address Security Requirements for the Software Supply Chain
Software supply chain attacks are increasing in severity and frequency, with no clear path laid out towards its mitigation. A simple way to trace the origin of vulnerable components is available in the form of Software Bill Of Materials (SBOMs), generated automatically when using Buildpacks.

Benefits of Loosely Coupled Deep Learning Serving
As deep networks are becoming more specialized and resource-hungry, serving such networks on acceleration hardware in tight-budget environments is also becoming difficult. Instead of using API frameworks, loosely coupled components can be preferred as an alternative. They bring high controllability, easy adaptability, transparent observability, and cost-effectiveness when serving deep networks.

DevSecOps: the Key to Securing Your Supply Chain in a Multi-Cloud Threatscape
Recent supply chain attacks require businesses to re-evaluate their approach to DevOps, specifically as it relates to security. The DevSecOps focus CI/CD platforms, testing and scanning across the SDLC, and a focus on minimizing manual efforts can not only improve security postures but also improve delivery of business value.
