Today we sit down with Doug May, SVP of Productivity at Harness, to discuss one of the most critical yet overlooked aspects of a healthy organization: Sales Productivity. Doug has had an illustrious career at elite organizations including Datadog and Databricks, and he brings that expertise to Harness, where he has cut ramp time in half and increased per-rep contribution by 43%. We explore the "F1 engineering team" analogy of GTM support, why productivity metrics are the ultimate indicator of a company's health, and the specific questions every candidate should ask to de-risk their next career move.

DOP 335: Stop Building Dashboards and Start Getting Answers With Coroot

#335: Observability tools have exploded in recent years, but most come with a familiar tradeoff: either pay steep cloud vendor markups or spend weeks building custom dashboards from scratch. Coroot takes a different path as a self-hosted, open source observability platform that prioritizes simplicity over flexibility. Using eBPF technology, Coroot automatically instruments applications without requiring code changes or complex configuration, delivering what co-founder Peter Zaitsev calls opinionated observability—a philosophy of less is more that aims to reduce cognitive overload rather than drowning users in endless metrics and dashboards. The conversation explores how Coroot differentiates itself in a crowded market with over a hundred observability vendors. Rather than competing head-to-head with cloud giants like Datadog and Dynatrace, Coroot focuses on developers who need answers fast without building elaborate monitoring systems. The platform combines systematic root cause analysis with AI-powered recommendations, using deterministic methods to trace how errors propagate through microservices before handing off to LLMs for actionable fix suggestions. Darin and Viktor dig into Coroot's business model with Peter, examining why the company chose Apache 2.0 licensing instead of more restrictive options, and how staying bootstrapped with minimal angel funding allows them to play the long game without pressure to chase every hype cycle.   Peter's contact information: X: https://x.com/PeterZaitsev Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/peterzaitsev.bsky.social LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterzaitsev/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

The future of reliability is not one tool. It is a team of agents working together. At AWS re:Invent, I had a chat with Francois Martel, Field CTO at NeuBird.ai, to talk about how AI is changing the way developers and SREs handle reliability in the real world.Here are the key takeaways from our conversation-- Coding agents are becoming the front door to AITools like GitHub Copilot and Cursor are getting massive adoption. When paired with NeuBird's Hawkeye agentic SRE server, these agents can jump straight into root cause analysis and even take action to remediate issues-- SREs are a natural fit for agentsSREs already live in the command line and think in scripts. Coding agents are an easy and practical entry point for bringing AI into day to day SRE workflows-- Agent adoption is speeding upWe are past experimentation. Customers are seeing value from early use cases, which is pushing broader and faster adoption of agent based systems-- Enterprise security still mattersFor larger organizations, NeuBird can deploy the agent inside the customer's VPC. The data stays in their environment and the full data path remains under their control-- AWS partnership momentumNeuBird is launching a pay as you go offering on the AWS Marketplace. This makes it one of the first agentic SRE servers you can try without long term commitment and connect to tools like AWS, Datadog, Dynatrace, and GrafanaIf you want to see how agentic SRE works in practice, you can start with the pay as you go option or the two week free trial and pairing it with your favorite coding agent.It was great catching up with François again and seeing how NeuBird is pushing the agentic SRE space forward.#data #ai #awsreinvent #aws #agents #awspartners #copilot #agents #theravitshow

When your website stops working at 3 AM, you need to answer one question fast: Is it my code or is a big cloud provider having problems? Omri Sass from Datadog explains updog.ai, a tool that monitors whether major services like AWS, CloudFlare, and others are actually working. Instead of asking people to report problems like Down Detector does, updog uses real data from thousands of computers to detect when services go down. Omri shares why this took 6 years to build, how they process massive amounts of data with machine learning, and why cloud providers have been strangely upset about these tools existing.About Omri: Omri Sass is a Director of Product Management at Datadog, where he leads and supports a team of 25+ product managers driving initiatives across Bits AI SRE, Data Observability, Service Management, and most recently, the launch of updog.ai.

The RL research era (2017–2022) and why most of it didn't pan out: overfitting to benchmarks, too many implicit knobs to tune, and the community rewarding complex ideas over simple ones that generalize Inside the o1 origin story: a dozen people, conviction from Ilya and Jakob Pachocki that RL would work, small-scale prototypes producing "surprisingly accurate reasoning traces" on math, and first-principles belief that scaled The reasoning team grew from ~12 to 300+ people as o1 became a product and safety, tooling, and deployment scaled up Why Cursor is uniquely positioned for continual learning: policy updates every two hours (online RL on tab), product and ML sitting next to each other, and the entire software engineering workflow (code, logs, debugging, DataDog) living in the product Composer as the start of product-model co-design: smart enough to use, fast enough to stay in the loop, and built by a 20–25 person ML team with high-taste co-founders who code daily The next paradigm shift: continual learning with infinite memory—models that experience something once (a bug, a user mistake) and store it in weights forever, learning from millions of deployment tokens without overloading capacity (trillions of pretraining tokens = plenty of room) Why off-policy RL is unstable (Ashvin's favorite interview question) and why Cursor does two-day work trials instead of whiteboard interviews The vision: automate software engineering as a process (not just answering prompts), co-design products so the entire workflow (write code, check logs, debug, iterate) is in-distribution for RL, and make models that never make the same mistake twice — Ashvin Nair Cursor: https://cursor.com X: https://x.com/ashvinnair_ Chapters 00:00:00 Introduction: From Robotics to Cursor via OpenAI 00:01:58 The Robotics to LLM Agent Transition: Why Code Won 00:09:11 RL Research Winter and Academic Overfitting 00:11:45 The Scaling Era and Moving Goalposts: IOI Gold Doesn't Mean AGI 00:21:30 OpenAI's Reasoning Journey: From Codex to O1 00:20:03 The Blip: Thanksgiving 2023 and OpenAI Governance 00:22:39 RL for Reasoning: The O-Series Conviction and Scaling 00:25:47 O1 to O3: Smooth Internal Progress vs External Hype Cycles 00:33:07 Why Cursor: Co-Designing Products and Models for Real Work 00:34:14 Composer and the Future: Online Learning Every Two Hours 00:35:15 Continual Learning: The Missing Paradigm Shift 00:44:00 Hiring at Cursor and Why Off-Policy RL is Unstable

Will Turso Be The Better SQLite? (with Glauber Costa)

SQLite is embedded everywhere - phones, browsers, IoT devices. It's reliable, battle-tested, and feature-rich. But what if you want concurrent writes? Or CDC for streaming changes? Or vector indexes for AI workloads? The SQLite codebase isn't accepting new contributors, and the test suite that makes it so reliable is proprietary. So how do you evolve an embedded database that's effectively frozen?Glauber Costa spent a decade contributing to the Linux kernel at Red Hat, then helped build Scylla, a high-performance rewrite of Cassandra. Now he's applying those lessons to SQLite. After initially forking SQLite (which produced a working business but failed to attract contributors), his team is taking the bolder path: a complete rewrite in Rust called Turso. The project already has features SQLite lacks - vector search, CDC, browser-native async operation - and is using deterministic simulation testing (inspired by TigerBeetle) to match SQLite's legendary reliability without access to its test suite.The conversation covers why rewrites attract contributors where forks don't, how the Linux kernel maintains quality with thousands of contributors, why Pekka's "pet project" jumped from 32 to 64 contributors in a month, and what it takes to build concurrent writes into an embedded database from scratch.--Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoicesSupport Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DeveloperVoices/joinTurso: https://turso.tech/Turso GitHub: https://github.com/tursodatabase/tursolibSQL (SQLite fork): https://github.com/tursodatabase/libsqlSQLite: https://www.sqlite.org/Rust: https://rust-lang.org/ScyllaDB (Cassandra rewrite): https://www.scylladb.com/Apache Cassandra: https://cassandra.apache.org/DuckDB (analytical embedded database): https://duckdb.org/MotherDuck (DuckDB cloud): https://motherduck.com/dqlite (Canonical distributed SQLite): https://canonical.com/dqliteTigerBeetle (deterministic simulation testing): https://tigerbeetle.com/Redpanda (Kafka alternative): https://www.redpanda.com/Linux Kernel: https://kernel.org/Datadog: https://www.datadoghq.com/Glauber Costa on X: https://x.com/glcstGlauber Costa on GitHub: https://github.com/glommerKris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.socialKris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkinsKris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/--0:00 Intro3:16 Ten Years Contributing to the Linux Kernel15:17 From Linux to Startups: OSv and Scylla26:23 Lessons from Scylla: The Power of Ecosystem Compatibility33:00 Why SQLite Needs More37:41 Open Source But Not Open Contribution48:04 Why a Rewrite Attracted Contributors When a Fork Didn't57:22 How Deterministic Simulation Testing Works1:06:17 70% of SQLite in Six Months1:12:12 Features Beyond SQLite: Vector Search, CDC, and Browser Support1:19:15 The Challenge of Adding Concurrent Writes1:25:05 Building a Self-Sustaining Open Source Community1:30:09 Where Does Turso Fit Against DuckDB?1:41:00 Could Turso Compete with Postgres?1:46:21 How Do You Avoid a Toxic Community Culture?1:50:32 Outro

For years, observability sat quietly in the background of enterprise technology, an operational tool for engineers, something to keep the lights on and costs down. As systems became more intelligent and automated, observability has stepped into a far more strategic role. It now acts as the connective tissue between business intent and technical execution, helping organizations understand not only what is happening inside their systems, but why it's happening and what it means.This shift forms the core of a recent Tech Transformed podcast episode between host Dana Gardner and Pejman Tabassomi, Field CTO for EMEA at Datadog. Together, they explore how observability has changed into what Tabassomi calls the “nervous system of AI”, a framework that allows enterprises to translate complexity into clarity and automation into measurable outcomes.Building AI LiteracyAI models make decisions that can affect everything from customer experiences to financial forecasting. It's important to understand that without observability, those decisions remain obscure.“Visibility into how models behave is crucial,” Tabassomi notes. True observability allows teams to see beyond outputs and into the reasoning of their systems, even if a model is drifting, automation is adapting effectively, and results align with strategic goals. This transparency builds trust. It also ensures accountability, giving organizations the confidence to scale AI responsibly without losing sight of the outcomes that matter most.Observability Observability is not merely about monitoring; it is about decision-making. It provides the insight required to manage complex systems, optimize outcomes, and act with agility. For organizations relying on AI and automation, observability becomes the differentiator between being merely efficient and achieving a sustainable competitive edge. In short, observability is no longer optional; it is central to translating technology into strategy and strategy into advantage.For more insights follow Datadog:X: @datadoghq Instagram: @datadoghq Facebook: facebook.com/datadoghq facebook.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/datadogTakeawaysObservability has evolved from cost efficiency to a strategic role in...

AI Cyberattacks Surge as Gartner Predicts 50% Security Budget Shift to Prevention by 2030

AI-powered cyberattacks are rapidly evolving, prompting a significant shift in cybersecurity strategies. According to a recent Gartner report, IT leaders are expected to allocate over half of their cybersecurity budgets to preemptive defense measures by 2030. This change is driven by the inadequacy of traditional detection and response tools in the face of sophisticated cyber threats, particularly those enhanced by artificial intelligence. Experts warn that while preemptive measures can mitigate risks, organizations may encounter challenges in integrating these new systems and overcoming cultural inertia.Datadog's 2025 State of Cloud Security Report highlights a growing trend among organizations adopting data perimeters to combat credential theft, with 40% of organizations implementing this advanced security practice. Additionally, 86% of organizations are utilizing multi-account setups within AWS, which allows for better enforcement of security protocols. Meanwhile, OpenAI's report reveals that cybercriminals are increasingly leveraging AI for malicious activities, including phishing and surveillance, showcasing the urgent need for enhanced cybersecurity measures.In response to market pressures, Synology has reversed its policy on drive restrictions for its network-attached storage models, allowing the use of non-validated third-party drives. This decision comes after user feedback indicated dissatisfaction with the previous requirement for proprietary drives, which were often more expensive. For managed service providers (MSPs), this change offers greater flexibility and cost-effectiveness, making Synology's products more appealing once again.Pax8 has launched the Pax8 Agent Store, a platform designed to help MSPs adopt and offer AI-driven tools to small and medium-sized businesses. This marketplace aims to facilitate the integration and monetization of intelligent automation solutions, with early access set for December 2025. Additionally, SolarWinds has introduced an AI agent to enhance operational resilience for IT teams, while Barracuda Networks has launched Barracuda Research, a centralized resource for threat intelligence. Both initiatives aim to empower organizations in managing cybersecurity threats more effectively. Four things to know today00:00 Gartner, OpenAI, Datadog, and DHS Paint a Stark Cyber Future: AI Attacks Surge, Budgets Shift, and Defenses Fracture06:01 New Pax8 Platform Targets Repeatable AI Services, Sets Early Access for December08:03 Synology Reverses Course on Pricey Drives — Because You Stopped Buying09:53 SolarWinds and Barracuda Push AI to Ease IT Burdens—But Can They Deliver Real Value? This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  Comet, Scalepad Webinar:  https://bit.ly/msprmail

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.SoFi stock just crashed hard, dropping over 10% in a single session, and the big question is: what do you do if you're holding shares? In this video we break down the warning signs that could have saved traders from heavy losses, the technical red flags flashing across the chart, and why sticking to proven signals with OVTLYR helps you avoid getting caught in a free fall.We start by analyzing SoFi's chart and the sell signals that fired off before the collapse. Order blocks showed clear resistance overhead while no support was in sight. On top of that, the 10 EMA and 20 EMA weren't just broken, they were crushed, confirming that the short-term and intermediate trends had flipped bearish. Add in the 50/80 rule—where 50% of the time a stock like this can fall 80%—and the risk was obvious to anyone following the data.➡️ Learn how order blocks reveal resistance zones and why lack of support signals danger➡️ See why SoFi's moving average breakdown was a massive red flag➡️ Understand how the 50/80 rule plays out in real-world trades➡️ Discover why buying dips in crashing stocks is a losing strategy➡️ Get the simple trend template OVTLYR traders use to confirm entries and exitsThis episode also dives into trading psychology. Many investors convince themselves that “the market is wrong” when a stock like SoFi drops. But the market is never wrong. Price is truth, and your job is to follow the wave, not fight it. That's why patience and discipline matter—waiting for stocks that are crashing up instead of catching falling knives that destroy your account.We also compare SoFi to names like AMD, Tesla, and others that show what happens when you ignore exit signals. These examples prove that even the strongest rallies can evaporate quickly, and the only way to protect your gains is by having a plan. Averaging down might feel like a strategy, but it ties up your money for months with no guarantee of recovery. Averaging up when the trend is confirmed is where the real profits are made.Beyond SoFi, we look at opportunities across the market using OVTLYR's plans: Plan M, Plan A, and Plan ETF. With the S&P and Nasdaq showing mixed signals, sometimes the smartest move is simply sitting in cash. Other times, ETF strategies shine by capturing broader uptrends with lower stress. And when the signals line up, individual names like Intel, Zscaler, and Datadog show traders exactly how to time their moves with confidence.If you've been burned holding stocks through massive drops, this video is for you. You'll see why trusting signals, following the trend template, and using OVTLYR to confirm setups is the smarter way to trade. Stop guessing, stop hoping, and start trading with rules that protect your capital.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

When David Obstler joined Datadog in 2018, the company's co-founders had already built momentum with a product that observed modern cloud workloads. What struck Obstler was the alignment with a powerful long-term trend—the shift from legacy, on-premise systems to modern cloud applications. “It was a product that had a lot of product market fit in a really strong growing market,” he tells us.From that foundation, Datadog scaled rapidly. Today, the platform serves more than 3,100 customers worldwide, including Samsung, Nasdaq, Shell, Autodesk, and Toyota. The company recently entered the S&P 500 after reporting more than $820 million in second-quarter revenue—a 28% year-over-year increase—alongside $200 million in free cash flow, Obstler tells us.The CFO attributes the growth to Datadog's unwavering commitment to product-led innovation. The company began in infrastructure monitoring and quickly expanded into logs, application monitoring, and security. “The company invests R&D at very high and consistent levels to continue to maintain and grow the platform,” Obstler tells us.His own role centers on scaling the infrastructure needed to support expansion. That includes building global go-to-market operations and strengthening his team across financial planning, predictability, and business operations. “We've been investing behind this growth opportunity and doing it in a strong, prioritized way,” he tells us.With new investments in AI, Datadog is preparing for its next chapter. For Obstler, disciplined prioritization and product-driven growth remain at the heart of how finance can fuel scale.

Austan Goolsbee on Central Banking as a Data Dog

Austan Goolsbee is one of Tyler Cowen's favorite economists—not because they always agree, but because Goolsbee embodies what it means to think like an economist. Whether he's analyzing productivity slowdowns in the construction sector, exploring the impact of taxes on digital commerce, or poking holes in overconfident macro narratives, Goolsbee is consistently sharp, skeptical, and curious. A longtime professor at the University of Chicago's Booth School and former chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Obama, Goolsbee now brings that intellectual discipline—and a healthy dose of humor—to his role as president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. Tyler and Austan explore what theoretical frameworks Goolsbee uses for understanding inflation, why he's skeptical of monetary policy rules, whether post-pandemic inflation was mostly from the demand or supply side, the proliferation of stablecoins and shadow banking, housing prices and construction productivity, how microeconomic principles apply to managing a regional Fed bank, whether the structure of the Federal Reserve system should change, AI's role in banking supervision and economic forecasting, stablecoins and CBDCs, AI's productivity potential over the coming decades, his secret to beating Ted Cruz in college debates, and more.
