Long polling and WebSockets are two common techniques for delivering realtime data. While both have been used successfully in production systems, they differ significantly in how they perform, scale, and integrate into modern architectures. This guide compares long polling vs WebSockets to help engineering teams and technical decision-makers choose the right approach for delivering realtime experiences reliably and at scale.

The rise of large language models (LLMs) and AI-powered applications brings incredible potential, but also poses significant security challenges. These applications have gotten much more useful with the emergence of agentic approaches and the ability to call out to different libraries, systems, and most importantly, to different APIs in order to take actions. They have moved from being a question answering resource to being able to do work, shop on your behalf, book travel, and update code.

Today, we're excited to officially release the Asgardeo MCP Server, enabling developers to securely manage their Asgardeo organizations using natural language—right from their favorite code editors like VS Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and other MCP-compatible clients. Asgardeo already supports Login Flow AI and Branding AI, making it easier to build secure, customized login and registration experiences using plain language.

Assertion errors in Java are like your code's internal alarm system. When an AssertionError goes off, it signals that a fundamental assumption you made about your program's state is no longer true. It's your code telling you, “Hey, this isn't supposed to happen!" Unlike exceptions that might handle predictable runtime issues (like a file not found), an AssertionError specifically flags a breakdown in your code's internal logic or design assumptions.

Data visualization is one of the most important capabilities of any business intelligence (BI) and analytics solution. It helps people translate complex data into a visual context, like a chart or a graph, identify trends numbers alone can't easily reveal, and discover hidden patterns in your dashboard. Data visualization also provides a wealth of additional benefits for data analysis, such as enabling easier understanding of the correlation between operations and results.

Global enterprises HubSpot, Saks, DocuSign, and Oldcastle Infrastructure modernized their data infrastructure on Fivetran and Snowflake, achieving AI-driven innovation, scalability, and millions in ROI.

Since the first vehicles were sold to customers, automakers have competed to deliver the newest features and the greatest benefits to the driving experience. Today, that competition is less about shaping a car’s physical characteristics and more about making cars smarter and more connected to the world around them. With thousands of car models and trim levels available worldwide, there is a fierce need to find new ways to stand out from the competition.

Every year, like clockwork, a new version of PHP is released at the end of November. Naturally, you want to know, how much performance gain is in this new release across common frameworks and applications? Our tests show that, in general, the performance between 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 does not move much for a Laravel, Symfony and WordPress demo application. Upgrading to the latest PHP version is not a magic pill to improve performance.

Website testing ensures your site works as intended for every visitor, on every device, and under every condition. From login flows to shopping carts, it's what protects user experience and business outcomes. But manual testing alone can’t keep up with the pace of modern web development. That’s where automated website testing comes in. It speeds up releases, improves coverage, and gives teams the confidence to ship often, without breaking things.
