February 2026 — Equinor/fmu-dataio delivered a client_id-based authentication and telemetry enhancement for the FMU Sumo Uploader, enabling precise tracking of FMU upload traffic in Sumo. This involved updating SumoConnection to accept a client_id for proper authentication and telemetry, and extending tests to verify that the client_id is passed during connections. The change is tied to commit 53ebc412aeb4227ea79eb0674ef8d0dfd46a5862 (ENH: use client-id for fmu-sumo-uploader when connecting to Sumo. (#1591)). No major bugs fixed this month; the focus was on observability, authentication, and test coverage. Business impact includes improved visibility for capacity planning, auditing, and data-driven decision making. Technologies and skills demonstrated include Python development, testing, CI integration, and working with Sumo telemetry and authentication patterns.
