Discord engineering detailed how they added distributed tracing to Elixir's actor model. Their custom Transport library wraps messages with trace context and uses dynamic sampling to handle million-user fanouts. CPU optimizations included skipping unsampled traces and filtering context before deserialization, recovering 10+ percentage points of overhead.

HashiCorp has released Vault 1.21. This version introduces native SPIFFE authentication for non-human workloads, expands the granular secret recovery model introduced in Vault 1.20, and adds KV v2 secret attribution, MFA TOTP self-enrollment, a Vault Secrets Operator CSI driver that mounts secrets directly into pods without persisting them in etcd, and more.
