Switching Between AI Agents Like This Is a Game Changer #ai #productivity

AI didn't just change how fast code gets written. It exposed a new bottleneck: everything around the code. Reviews slow down. Context gets lost. Planning drifts from implementation. Teams move fast and still feel stuck. That's the problem GitKraken is built to solve, and this Friday we're going live to walk through what's changed. We'll cover the latest Code Flow Company features we've shipped, how they connect developers, AI agents, and production into one system, and what it actually looks like to go from plan to main without the chaos.

Agentic Pipelines | Bitbucket Blitz | Atlassian

Most CI/CD pipelines are fragile bash scripts that break when things change. What if your pipeline could think? Agentic Pipelines lets you add AI agents as steps in Bitbucket Pipelines. In this video, I show an agent that reads a design spec from Confluence, generates frontend code, runs tests, and opens a PR, all inside a pipeline. With Agentic Pipelines, Bitbucket goes from a CI/CD platform to a full workflow and automation engine you can use far beyond builds and deploys.

Building with AI: Our Approach to Responsible Agentic Development in Open Source

The tech world has been building up towards the shift to a fully agentic development life cycle for a few years now. AI is changing how software gets built. Across the Puppet ecosystem, we’re seeing a shift toward more agentic engineering workflows. AI helps generate code, shape documentation, and accelerate how Puppet modules evolve.

Imaginary Test Data. Real Token Bill.

Ask an AI for K-pop concert advice without saying the group, city, date, or budget. It may confidently send you to a BLACKPINK tribute night in Cleveland with a $400 resale ticket. The AI was plenty confident. It just had nothing real to go on. That is exactly what happens when developers test AI applications with invented traffic. The test may look reasonable. The result may even pass.

Migrating Workloads and Performance Issues in Public Cloud

When on-premises capacity runs short, public cloud tends to be the first option infrastructure teams reach for. It is quick to provision, removes the hardware procurement problem, and sidesteps the question of what to do with an ageing estate. What it does not settle is whether migrated workloads will perform as the business requires once they are live in production, or whether the recovery design has kept pace with where services now sit.

The art of SQL Server query tuning and execution plans (Hugo Kornelis) | The Simple Talk Podcast

Grant is joined by SQL Server veteran and long-time Microsoft MVP, Hugo Kornelis, to talk all things SQL Server query tuning, execution plans, and more. You’ll hear about some of the problems Hugo’s encountered during his consultancy career, what SQL Server has in common with a highway, and Hugo’s thoughts on AI – plus much more.

The secure path should be the default path - nothing more

Asking developers to take extra steps to pull securely is a policy that won't hold. The only approach that scales is making the private registry the default – a buffer between the developer and public registries that applies policy automatically at the global level. No extra steps, no security theater, no cognitive overhead at the point of pull. Automation and global policy configuration are what turn good intentions into a default secure posture.

Why AI Governance Is Now the Biggest Challenge for Enterprise AI

For the past couple of years, most conversations about AI in business have centered on adoption. Which tools should organizations deploy? Where can AI improve productivity? How quickly can it deliver value? Those questions still matter, but they are no longer the most difficult ones to answer. AI is now appearing across business applications, employee workflows, development environments, and customer-facing services.
