As always, there are interesting trends in DevOps, and I wanted to point out one that is starting to bother me: the “API economy,” and how it impacts DevOps decision-makers. Traditional infrastructure—SAN, LAN, physical systems, etc.—were generally controlled the best from the command line. While there are a million of them, Cisco IOS is probably […]
IoT, Not People, Now the Weakest Link in Security
Do a quick search on “people weakest link” and you’ll see a raft of articles in which cybersecurity experts and computer scientists point to employees or end users as the biggest vulnerability. No doubt, people do silly (or outright abusive) stuff and open the door for a variety of enterprise security problems. Spoiler alert: There’s […]

First of all, it’s deeply weird speaking at Monitorama when you work for a vendor in the monitoring and observability space, but you’re not there as a sponsor. This would be pretty odd at the best of times, but the crowd at […]
GDPR and Data Leakage: How Semantic Graphing Can Help
Many of the hallmarks of modern application development that drive efficiencies in the software development life cycle (agile, CI/CD, microservices, cloud infrastructure, open source libraries and third-party APIs) also create significant data leakage risks.
