Insights, guides, and best practices on AI-powered SRE, incident management, observability, platform engineering, and production reliability.
For most organizations, the real question isn't build versus buy - it's who owns the ongoing maintenance. Off-the-shelf AI SRE tools work well if your stack looks like everyone else's. But if you're running JVM services, Kafka pipelines, Spark jobs, or custom Scala systems, generic tools stall exactly where your incidents are worst. This guide breaks down the real cost structure behind build vs. buy, when off-the-shelf is the right call, and when a managed, custom-built alternative changes the equation.
Connecting your incident management tool to Claude through MCP enables context-aware AI-assisted incident response. By combining incident data, observability, runbooks, and automation, teams can investigate issues faster, reduce manual effort, and maintain human oversight while building a more reliable, AI-powered production environment.
A guide to AI SRE: what it is, how it differs from AIOps and copilots, how it works, what can go wrong, and how to compare and roll out the leading tools.
The AI trust gap is the hesitation engineering teams feel about allowing AI to recommend or execute decisions on live production systems. Discover how to safely deploy AI on-call with policy engines, action allowlists, and evidence-first governance.
An AI SRE agent helps reduce the time engineers spend investigating support issues by turning customer emails into structured tickets, identifying the likely root cause, and creating evidence-backed draft pull requests. Instead of replacing developer judgment, it handles repetitive searching and context reconstruction while keeping humans in control through confidence thresholds, access restrictions, testing, and review. The approach allows teams to start small and gradually automate more of the support-to-code workflow safely.
