AI agents are starting to eat SaaS

AI coding agents are eating the lunch of low-complexity SaaS. Teams with a bit of dev muscle are skipping subscription logins and spinning up dashboards, pipelines, even decks, using Claude, Gemini, whoever’s fastest that day. Build vs. buy? Tilting back toward build. The kicker: build now takes min.. read more

Agent-Driven SRE Investigations: A Practical Deep Dive into Multi-Agent Incident Response

A sandboxed setup dropped multiple Claude-powered agents into Docker containers to run a full incident response drill. Each agent played a role: probing Kubernetes clusters, sniffing out root causes, and shipping remediation PRs straight to GitHub. Out of 7 test incidents, they nailed the diagnoses .. read more

How We Saved 70% of CPU and 60% of Memory in Refinery’s Go Code, No Rust Required.

Refinery 3.0 cuts CPU by 70% and slashes RAM by 60%. The trick: selective field extraction from serialized spans. No full deserialization. Fewer heap allocations. Way less waste. It also recycles buffers, handles metrics smarter, and is gearing up to parallelize its core decision loop... read more

Rust Confirmed for Linux Kernel: Experiment Concludes Successfully

Rust GNU/Linux The Linux Kernel UNIX

The Rust experiment in the Linux kernel concludes, confirming its suitability and permanence in kernel development, with Rust now used in production and supported by major Linux distributions.

Rust Confirmed for Linux Kernel: Experiment Concludes Successfully
Kata Containers is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project designed to close the security gap between traditional Linux containers and virtual machines. Instead of sharing a single host kernel like standard containers, Kata Containers launches each pod or container inside its own lightweight virtual machine using hardware virtualization.

This approach dramatically reduces the attack surface and prevents container escape vulnerabilities, making Kata ideal for multi-tenant, untrusted, or sensitive workloads. Despite using VMs under the hood, Kata is optimized for fast startup times and integrates seamlessly with Kubernetes through the Container Runtime Interface (CRI), allowing it to be used alongside runtimes like containerd and CRI-O.

Kata Containers is commonly used in scenarios such as multi-tenant Kubernetes clusters, confidential computing, sandboxed AI workloads, serverless platforms, and agent execution environments where strong isolation is mandatory. It supports multiple hypervisors, including QEMU, Firecracker, and Cloud Hypervisor, and continues to evolve toward faster boot times, lower memory overhead, and better hardware acceleration support.
