Website Monitoring vs. Website Testing and Why Teams Need Both

Website teams often use “testing” and “monitoring” in the same conversation, but they solve different problems. Website testing helps teams catch issues before changes go live. Website monitoring helps teams catch issues after the site is already in production.

Think Big: Inside the Hakkoda/IBM Snowflake Partnership

Ryan Tucker, CRO & Co-Founder of Hakodaa (now an IBM company), shares how their True Blue Snowflake partnership since 2021 drives data transformation and AI value with vertical expertise. He highlights customer wins including Cortex AI-powered sentiment analysis for a UK wealth manager and Snowflake Intelligence for retail executive reporting, and discusses how the IBM acquisition amplifies their Snowflake-specialized DNA with global reach.

How Headless Software Powers the Machine Internet

Software is going headless: the internet is shifting from GUIs built for humans to APIs, MCP servers, and CLIs built for machines and agents. Machines will consume the internet at a scale 1,000x greater than humans — more agents will exist than people, and programmatic access moves far more data than any click ever could. This transition requires API and AI infrastructure capable of moving terabytes at a scale never built before. Kong provides the connectivity layer for this machine internet — the infrastructure between agents, LLMs, and the services they consume.#Shorts.

Zero-Copy Mirroring in Qlik Open Lakehouse

There’s a moment in every data team’s journey when a bill arrives with unexpected costs. It might be an egress charge you didn’t see coming, a query cost that spiralled when usage spiked, or the quiet realization that migrating your data to a different platform would take months of work and a significant budget. If you’ve been there, you know what vendor lock-in really costs, and it’s not just dollars.

Anthropic Acquires Stainless. What's It Mean for AI Connectivity?

Every few months, a frontier AI lab makes a move that says the quiet part out loud: agents are only as useful as the systems they can reach. The latest example is Anthropic's acquisition of Stainless, the company behind the tooling that turns API specs into SDKs and MCP servers. Anthropic's own framing is direct. Agents need to connect to data and tools, and the path from an API to an agent-ready interface needs to get shorter. We agree. We've been making a version of this argument for two years.

Stop building your modular mobile app the slow way

Your CI pipeline worked fine when the app was young. Then the app grew. Features got split into modules. Teams formed around those modules. And somewhere along the way, what used to be a 4-minute build became a 25-minute one. Then 35. Now nobody pushes to main before lunch because the queue is already backed up. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. According to Google’s 2024 Developer Survey, 83% of Android apps over 500,000 lines of code struggle with build performance.
