Malicious npm packages just leveled up: this one dropped a self-spreading worm that hijacks repos and leaks secrets the moment it lands. It abuses `postinstall` scripts to run TruffleHog and swipe tokens straight from your codebase. Then it uses GitHub Actions to exfiltrate the loot and auto-publis..

Duolingo’s FinOps crew didn’t just track cloud costs—they wired up sharp, automated observability across 100+ microservices. Real-time alerts now catch AI and infra spend spikes before they torch the budget. They sliced TTS costs by 40% with in-memory caching. Dumped pricey CloudWatch metrics for P..

Detect, debug, and prevent message loss in Kafka-based streaming pipelines using tools like OpenTelemetry, Fluent Bit, Jaeger, and dead-letter queues. Make sure observability gaps in event strea..

A teardown of Argo CD anti-patterns calls out 28 common misfires—stuff like skipping Git for Application CRDs or stuffing Helm/Kustomize config right into Argo CD manifests. Yikes. It pushes for a cleaner setup: use **ApplicationSets** instead of rolling your own YAML, turn on **auto-sync/self-heal..

OneUptime shows how to put **error budgets** to work—keeping feature velocity in check without tanking reliability. The goal: ship fast, stay within SLOs. They do it by tracking **burn rates**, syncing across teams, and tuning SLOs to match how users actually use the product. Less guesswork, more s..

GitHub just rolled out the **MCP Registry**—a hub for finding **Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers** without hunting through scattered corners of the internet. No more siloed lists or mystery URLs. It's all in one place now. The goal? Cleaner access to AI agent tools, plus a path toward **self-pu..

The inaugural Edge Day launched as a co-located event at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU in 2022, focusing on edge computing and the evolution from centralized data centers to the network edge. The event brings together academic research, enterprise use cases, and insights from the Kubernetes community...

Fluent Bit just edged out Fluentd as the CNCF’s go-to log processor. Why? It's fast—up to 40× faster. Built in C. Embedded plugins. Native OpenTelemetry. Full observability baked in.
