The latest news, tutorials, and guides for DevOps professionals.

Measure what keeps a Neon compute from scaling to zero (idle connections, open transactions, monitoring, health checks) and what each costs in CU-hours. Real computes, watched through the Neon API.

A live order board on Neon Realtime and the scripts that measured it on a real Neon project: latency at 1 to 100 writes/s, full re-sends, reconnects, scale to zero and 14 sealed-query tamper attempts.

Every feature pulled from PostgreSQL 19 after beta 1, counted from the source tree: reverts, release-note diff, AI-credited and security commits, plus a script that finds beta-era code using pulled syntax.

Read daily.dev from your terminal: feed, popular, search, comments and bookmarks, with --json for scripts and coding agents. Unofficial, built on the public API.

Run the same GitHub Actions workloads on different runners, many times, and record every step's time and the billed minutes.

When do certbot, acme.sh and lego renew a 64-day Let's Encrypt certificate? Measured on staging at 64, 45 and 90 days. Old acme.sh with --days 80 renews 15 days after expiry; upgrading fixes it.

Page, ticket or ignore: 200 alerts, one written on-call policy, eight models on DigitalOcean Serverless Inference. Measures missed pages, cost and latency, and what the model routers pick.

Compute the four DORA metrics from plain Git history under every common definition, and measure how far the definition alone moves Kubernetes, uv, Go and Prometheus between performance levels.

Scripts that record the real terminal output used in DevOps Daily posts, run on fresh GitHub Actions runners
