The first PostgreSQL post ran on a laptop: a demo app, a Docker container, and the proxymock CLI. That is the fastest way to see the idea. It is also not where your database problems live. Your real query mix lives in the cluster, where a Java service with a connection pool, an ORM and a schema migration tool sends the statements nobody wrote by hand. This post deploys an open source banking app to Kubernetes and records the queries one of its services sends to PostgreSQL.

Rebuild AI API classification with Jev to cut costs, reduce latency, improve calibration, and make production decisions more efficient without sacrificing accuracy. Replacing the judgment step in a production classification pipeline with a purpose-built decision model changes the economics of the problem entirely.

FastAPI 0.142.0 ships with OpenTelemetry built in. Install fastapi, set one environment variable, and every request produces a trace, metrics, and error logs. No middleware, no instrumentation package, no code. That’s a big change for a framework most Python teams instrument by hand. It’s also easy to misread. The defaults record more than some teams expect in one place, and less than others assume in another. Here’s what you actually get.

Here at Speedscale, our monorepo has 19 Go projects in CI. Fifteen produce container images for both amd64 and arm64; a few of those need CGO. We also publish cross-compiled CLI binaries for macOS, Linux, and Windows.

We’ve updated the StatusGator API v3 to help you see how many requests your integration can make and handle rate limits more smoothly. Responses that count toward your organization’s per-minute limit now include three headers: If a request exceeds your limit, the API returns 429 Too Many Requests and a Retry-After header telling your integration how many seconds to wait before trying again.

If you’re running FastAPI, you’re running Starlette underneath it, whether you think about it or not. At Scout, we spend a lot of time thinking about what happens at that ASGI layer, since that’s exactly where our Python agent hooks in to give you request-level visibility. Starlette 1.7.0 just landed, and it’s a release worth reading closely if you care about tracing, routing, or just keeping your app running on a supported dependency chain.
