Introduction Continuous improvement depends on experimentation. Teams know that the fastest path to better outcomes is to test changes against real user behavior, measure results, and iterate. In practice, sustaining that cycle is slow and costly because the overhead compounds with each attempt. Three barriers slow teams down: 1. Planning cost — Turning a proposed […]

AWS Health Planned Lifecycle Events signal when a managed service version is nearing end of standard support. Learn how to automate these upgrades end to end with AWS DevOps Agent and Kiro: detect the event, investigate the upgrade path, apply validated code changes, and open a pull request for human review.

This post was co-written with Michael Stephan, Senior Principal Product Manager, and Christian Kreuzberger, Principal Software Engineer, at Dynatrace. AI-driven software delivery changes how code gets written, but not what production demands of it. A generated change still has to fit the traffic your service receives, the dependencies it calls, and the capacity limits it […]

“A pull request comes back with a single comment: “This doesn’t follow our circuit breaker pattern. Check the Architectural Decision Record .”  You know the architecture decision record exists somewhere. You open your team’s wiki, search “circuit breaker,” scroll past six irrelevant results, find the document, read through it, switch back to your editor, and fix the […]

Introduction Automated incident remediation – turning investigation findings into deployed fixes without manual toil – is the next frontier for operations teams running distributed workloads on AWS. Today, when an incident fires at 2 AM, the on-call engineer must correlate telemetry across Amazon CloudWatch, deployment pipelines, and application logs, then manually write and deploy a […]

When an alarm fires at 2 AM, the first thing most engineers do is grep logs, check recent deployments, and trace code paths. However, the context they need — metrics, traces, topology, configurations — lives in a separate browser tabs and applications. What if your IDE could bring that cloud intelligence directly to your code, […]
