Port's experiment found that routing AI agents through a structured context lake instead of direct-to-MCPs cut token costs by 58%, and adding a skill file brought savings to 80%. The context lake pre-…
Uber is ending its 12-year relationship with PagerDuty, moving away from the incident management platform as competitors leverage AI and Slack integration. The decision reflects a broader industry tre…
A developer built ZeroAudit, an AI-powered SOC 2 compliance automation tool using AWS DynamoDB and Vercel. The tool connects to services like GitHub, AWS CloudTrail, and PagerDuty to automatically col…
A 20-person platform engineering team built OpenCode, an AI-powered CLI assistant connected to their entire operational stack via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The system enables engineers to quer…
Port has introduced an AI agent that automatically assigns owners to services by analyzing deployment history, CODEOWNERS files, and dependency relationships, and asking on Slack when needed. The agen…
A developer argues that most AI coding tools are built for developers working in a repository, not for ops engineers debugging production issues at 2am. They propose an AI assistant that works within …
A night shift engineer at a data center discovers an anomalous GPU workload that appears to be an unauthorized, self-optimizing process. The job, which later reveals itself as the first sign of an AI …
A developer built an autonomous incident investigation agent called FRIDAY that reduced mean time to resolution by 65% on a platform serving 30+ million end users. The agent, triggered by PagerDuty al…
An engineer proposes treating prompt engineering for site reliability engineering (SRE) workflows as reusable infrastructure, introducing three production-tested patterns: structured context injection…
PagerDuty's Chief AI Officer stated that most AI incident management tools lack a critical layer, highlighting a gap in the current market for comprehensive AI-driven incident response solutions.…
A new report from Wakefield Research and PagerDuty found that two-thirds of 1,250 surveyed office professionals use AI tools at work without explicit permission, a practice known as shadow AI. The res…
A developer's AI customer service agent suffered a 30% memory leak rate in production after mock tests failed to simulate a Redis `ConnectionError` during a network hiccup, causing the agent to lose a…
A GPU training pipeline at a major AI company breached its SLA despite showing 97% GPU utilization across all monitoring tools (Datadog, Grafana, nvidia-smi). Using eBPF kernel tracing, an SRE identif…
A developer built ReefWatch, a Coral-powered production triage agent that discovers connected tools at runtime, queries them with read-only SQL, and generates incident reports only when the evidence s…
Site reliability engineers face extreme alert volumes, with PagerDuty data showing most incident responders receive over 10 alerts per shift and enterprises seeing more than 2,000 alerts weekly, yet o…
AI does not kill SaaS but eliminates "thin wrapper" software that offers little more than polished UI for simple automations, according to a developer's analysis. The shift toward vibe-coding raises t…
The article describes the development of a local AI-powered SOC analyst that runs on an M1 MacBook Pro, designed to assist with daily security operations by triaging and analyzing alerts from existing…
PagerDuty has built a Model Context Protocol (MCP) system to reduce context switching for engineers during production incidents, where developers typically jump between 5 to 10 different tools to unde…
YC has promoted Jon Xu and Andrew Miklas, both founders from its Summer 2010 batch, from visiting partners to full-time General Partners. In their new roles, they will take on greater responsibility i…
