Building a Zero-Cost Daily Job Alert Pipeline on GitHub Actions

I needed a job to run once a day, remember what it did yesterday, and cost nothing to operate. The obvious answer is a small VM with cron, or a Lambda plus DynamoDB. I did not want to pay for either, and I did not want a server to patch. So I pushed the whole thing onto GitHub Actions and used a JSON file committed back to the repo as the database.

While effective, the traditional train-tune-deploy-retrain cycle can be complex and time-consuming. Additionally, the overhead of manual feature engineering, hyperparameter tuning, lengthy and expensive training, and the need for specialized data science skills can lead busine

Secure mainframe access with HashiCorp Boundary

Mainframes remain the backbone of many of the world’s critical systems, processing millions of transactions per second while delivering near-continuous availability. From powering Wall Street transactions to travel bookings, mainframes are ubiquitous. Yet operator access to these platforms often still relies on traditional protocols such as HTTP(S), SSH, and Telnet, which can introduce security, governance, and audit challenges. For the mission-critical platforms that mainframes are, there shoul
