The biggest operational bottleneck in property management isn’t a lack of technology. It’s the manual coordination required between systems, teams, and processes. Leasing coordinators paste data from the PMS into email threads. Maintenance supervisors scan spreadsheets to find overdue work orders. Accounting teams wait for someone to confirm a deposit before posting. Owner reports get assembled the night before a call because nothing triggers them automatically.

When Temporal launched, a lot of people had the same reaction: "We have queues and retries. We don't need this." (Temporal's own blog addressed this directly.) That reaction made sense. Queues solve queue problems and they do it well. What Temporal gave you was something different: a named execution context that survives a server restart and picks up from its last checkpoint. Not a better queue. A different abstraction entirely. If you built with it, you couldn't imagine going back.

Mobile crash reporting tools don’t just tell us when our app’s broken down. They help us pick up the pieces and build better next time. As such they play a vital role in our quest to deliver excellent user experience, so it’s important we choose the right tool for our team, users and operating systems. In this guide, we’ll compare the best mobile crash reporting tools in 2026, including Android-focused and cross-platform solutions.

Each change to Kong Gateway's codebase triggers a comprehensive test suite that runs more than 17,000 * 2 = 34,000 test cases among the two primary architectures (x86 and ARM) we support. This process takes about 23.5 hours on a single machine. But we don't wait that long. A large fleet of machines runs the suite in parallel, and we shard the work aggressively so each commit finishes in a fraction of that time. That setup works well, right up until flaky tests get involved.

At Ably we've been able to make a transformational change in how we build SDKs as a result of what's now possible with LLMs. In this post, I explain how.

AI is at the center of every conversation around operational efficiency, while at the same time being sidelined. In a recent Harvard Business Review Analytic Services survey, only 18% of organizations report that AI is integrated within most of their workflows; twice as many run it as a standalone tool alongside the work. That gap—between AI that assists and AI that operates—is the defining problem of enterprise AI agents.

Kong and Persistent Systems partner to make migrating off old API management platforms faster and lower risk Legacy API management platforms were built for a different era. They weren't designed for microservices, multi-cloud deployments, or AI workloads. They're expensive, rigid, and hold engineering teams back. The problem is that migration has always felt hard. APIs are load-bearing infrastructure. Policies are complex. Risk is real. So the old platform stays, and the technical debt compounds.
