AI gives IT teams time back, then takes some of it right back in verification.

71% of IT pros say double-checking AI output is the biggest friction it adds. 62% do not fully trust its recommendations.

From programming the ENIAC and advancing software engineering to building communities, organizations, and technologies that continue to shape the industry, their impact spans generations.

On Women’s Equality Day, we’re celebrating the women whose work helped move technology forward and the many more still writing its next chapter.

80% of IT pros say the role is shifting from running systems to directing them.

Less hands-on ex*****on. More deciding what runs, when, and under what guardrails.

The work did not get smaller. The decisions got bigger.

The hard part of AI in observability is not the automation but deciding how much of it you can actually trust.

Chrystal Taylor and Thor-Bjørn Tramp, CEO of Veridata, are drawing that line live on August 26, and it is a sharper line than most vendors want to admit.
