Ricardo Ferreira discusses moving beyond simple prompt engineering to build production-grade AI applications. He shares practical architectural strategies for integrating long-term and short-term...

On August 13, 2026, PostgreSQL shipped its biggest security release ever: 28 CVEs closed in a single day. The old record was 11. The community has done its job, a phenomenal one at that! If you...

AI workflows have two needs that trade off directly. Running reliably in production requires persisting and distributing every step so it survives crashes, deploys, and restarts. But that same...

JDK 24 removed the monitor-related carrier-thread pinning that stalled Netflix and similar teams on Java 21. What has replaced it on JDK 25 LTS is downstream-resource saturation: The bottleneck...

This article presents a defense-in-depth approach for securing Model Context Protocol (MCP) deployments in production. It outlines four architectural control layers: safe execution, management...

The bottleneck in a mature SOC is rarely analyst triage; rather, it is the detection-engineering team's ability to keep the rule base aligned with a threat landscape that evolves faster than rules...

Ben O'Mahony discusses building custom AI-powered Language Server Protocols (LSPs) that go beyond standard rule-based checkers. He explains how to instrument AI agents natively with OpenTelemetry...

QCon AI Boston 2026 focused on the operational challenges of deploying AI agents, emphasizing the need for robust production infrastructure. Key themes included improving context management,...

Gwen Shapira shares how teams are scaling AI features using PostgreSQL for mission-critical apps. She explains how to leverage Postgres's multi-modal capabilities - including JSONB parsing and...

In a recent article, Datadog engineer Arnold Wakim shared what worked, what didn't, and the lessons they learned while evolving a critical production system using AI to overcome hard limits in its...

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has announced a major expansion of its AWS DevOps Agent, introducing new release management capabilities designed to assess code changes and autonomously test software...

One of our client’s PostgreSQL 16.8 production databases started logging what looked like a memory error: ERROR: invalid memory alloc request size The error immediately pointed toward two likely...

The panelists explain the realities of running AI systems reliably at scale. While building models is solved, maintaining production databases under constant pressure is not. They discuss the...

Automating software’s deployment, production, and monitoring systems has been challenging. Resolve AI’s CEO explains how AI could improve reliability, pace, and workload.

Upgrading PostgreSQL in production is not fun. You have real data, real users, and a version of Postgres that’s probably several major releases behind. The obvious approach (dump, upgrade,...

Microsoft used their Build 2026 event to announce new functionality for Microsoft Foundry. Citing Foundry as "the place where AI agents move from experiments to production systems," in a blog...

This series provides your roadmap for the machine age, exploring how to move from vulnerable prototypes to resilient systems through layered defense, robust MLOps, and integrated governance. By...

Google Cloud's automated systems suspended Railway's production account without notice, triggering an eight-hour platform-wide outage affecting 3 million users. The cascade took down workloads...

Deep Research Agentic Systems are AI Agents designed to conduct multi-step research for complex tasks using dynamic reasoning, multi-hop information retrieval, and generate structured analytical...
