If you ever tried any vibe-coding tool on the market you know they are mostly supercharged NodeJS code editor, full of pre-made components and often unable to really understand your existing code base. We created AppJet for a simple reason: AI is now at a maturity point where it can realistic to use it as a real coding companion.

Today, we are introducing Resolved by Timer. It is a timer you can set on your incidents. When the timer runs out, the incident resolves on its own. Not all incidents need manual attention. Sometimes they just sit on dashboards, adding noise long after they have stopped mattering. And when that happens, Spike also treats them as “open incidents,” which can end up suppressing new alerts if the same problem re-triggers later. Resolve Timer solves both problems.

Thailand is emerging as one of Asia’s most important digital hubs. Fuelled by large-scale investments in data centres, cloud regions, and network infrastructure, the country is becoming a central link between Southeast Asia and global markets. Recognising this, Console Connect, PCCW Global’s Network-as-a-Service platform, has expanded its footprint by enabling 13 new data centre locations across Thailand, bringing the total to 16 nationwide.

Head spinning with all the “aaS” acronyms floating around these days? Our complete glossary will bring you up to speed. We’re watching the world go as-a-service in real time, and it has made for some heated Reddit threads about how our existence is being monetized at every turn. It’s difficult to refute that individual consumers should have the option to pay a one-off fee for software, platforms, and media as opposed to paying for temporary access.

As you develop internal tools or public-facing data applications, implementing authentication mechanisms becomes essential. Without authentication, you risk exposing sensitive information or allowing unauthorized access. Fortunately, integrating secure user access does not have to be complex. AWS Cognito provides a straightforward way to handle authentication, user management, and access control across multiple identity providers.

When incidents strike, your on-call engineer jumps in first. They assess the issue, triage it, and try to resolve it. But sometimes, they can’t solve the problem or aren’t available. That’s when escalation policies step in to find the right backup. In this guide, I’ve explained how escalation policies work, why every team needs them, and how you can set up one. Also, I’ve included ready-to-use templates to help you get started fast.

Dynamic SQL in SQL Server is built for scenarios where queries can’t be fully defined in advance. It’s the method of choice when structure depends on user input, variable schemas, or runtime conditions, cases where static SQL falls short. However, without proper structure, this flexibility introduces security and maintenance challenges. To make it work at scale, you need a disciplined approach.

Traditional performance testing often comes late in the delivery cycle, typically just before release. By then, performance issues are usually quite expensive to fix, can delay deployments, and frustrate development velocity. A Shift Left testing approach addresses this by integrating performance testing early in the development cycle so issues surface while they’re still easy and cheap to fix.

In GitLens 17.2 we introduced Commit Composer as an early preview of a set of AI-powered tools to help you craft cleaner, more meaningful commits. With GitLens 17.4, Commit Composer has leveled up. Based on your feedback, it’s now a fully interactive drafting experience that lets you compose commits in a single click, and puts you in control of your commit history.
