Docker made Custom Catalogs and Profiles available for MCP servers. Admins can distribute server catalogs they approve, and teams can package per-developer configurations as OCI artifacts... read more  

Anthropic breaks down the patterns behind successful Claude Code rollouts in monorepos, legacy systems, and codebases spanning thousands of developers, arguing that Claude Code performs agentic search over a live filesystem instead of relying on a RAG index that drifts out of sync with active engine.. read more  

New data shows Microsoft and OpenAI leading agent orchestration, but Anthropic's rising stake signals a shift in control of AI infrastructure. Anthropic's move from model to orchestration layer hints at a strategic battle over agent runtime platforms where operational AI work happens... read more  

Ryan Skidmore works out the tokenomics of Anthropic's prompt cache and lands on a single rule: if you expect to need a cached prefix again within 62.5 minutes, keep refreshing it with cheap reads; past that, let it expire and rewrite, because a 5-minute cache write costs 1.25x base input and a read .. read more  

Brijesh Deb's third "comfortable lie" of software testing is that AI is now doing the testing: coverage dashboards hit 80%+, regression suites maintain themselves, and leadership concludes that risk is handled, while the experienced testers who knew the domain quietly get redeployed or made redundan.. read more  

AWS engineers explain how the Lambda team rebuilt VPC networking so they can keep per-invocation setup off the hot path and run dense microVM workers at scale... read more  

Shift left has become a buzzword, but merely moving testing earlier doesn't address the core issue of authority and decision-making in quality assurance. AI may offer quicker testing, but it doesn't comprehend risk like human testers do - beware the dangerous lie that AI can replace thorough, critic.. read more  

Graham Gilbert argues Terraform is effectively dead, kept alive only by inertia: HCL forced engineers to translate intent (the diagrams, paragraphs, and constraints that actually describe systems) into a DSL that nobody naturally thinks in, while fragmenting infrastructure, application logic, polici.. read more  

After a network outage crisis, Pinterest's ML Platform team discovered high Kubernetes agent CPU usage was causing critical Ray training job failures. The team's deep profiling strategy revealed a rarely seen flaw in how Kubelet was handling memory cgroup iterations... read more  

AI in SRE is evolving, with true value in Root Cause Analysis and Pre-Change Impact Analysis, not autonomous remediation or AI replacing SREs - it's about collaboration and focus evolution... read more
