In the AI era, software and new models are being born at a breakneck pace—but they’re also bringing a lot of “baggage” into the world. While AI coding agents are busy accelerating innovation, they’re also excellent at generating a massive byproduct: “digital dust.” Between obsolete releases, orphaned dependencies, and massive model versions, your repository may soon start to look more like a digital junk drawer than a streamlined machine.

AI coding assistants like Amazon Q Developer are transforming how you write software. They can generate entire functions, explain complex code, and help you move faster than ever. But there’s a catch: AI-generated code isn’t always correct. It can introduce subtle bugs, security vulnerabilities, or break existing functionality in ways that aren’t immediately obvious. That’s where continuous integration comes in.

Find and fix slow SQL queries using execution plans, missing index detection, N+1 pattern fixes, and pagination strategies for PostgreSQL and MySQL. Product Marketing Manager.

How we built an AI agent that implements Jira tickets, creates merge requests, and tracks them on its own, and our journey to get to that point.

We’re excited to announce that Speedscale’s proxymock is now available as an OpenClaw skill on ClawHub, bringing powerful API traffic replay capabilities directly into your Claude workflows.

When a database security incident happens, everyone turns to the security team. We look for a simple root cause analysis, and then we add a control, tighten a policy, and maybe even buy a silver bullet tool. We feel progress! But the incident didn’t start there. It started years earlier, when the organization made a series of perfectly reasonable decisions that quietly expanded the surface area and weakened the consistency of control.

This month’s highlights include smarter dependency handling in Flyway Desktop, and a look at how we’re starting the year strong for Oracle users. Plus: last call to share your feedback in our Flyway user survey (the prize draw closes soon!).

Deploying changes to Oracle databases can be complex from working across multiple schemas, handling dependencies, and accounting for environment differences. Flyway has been helping teams bring order and automation to Oracle development for over 15 years and in 2026 we’re accelerating that investment even further. Here’s a look at the latest enhancements available today and what’s coming next for Oracle users.

AWS EC2, Azure Virtual Machines, and Google Compute Engine (GCE) appear similar on paper but produce different bills due to how each provider prices capacity, discounts, idle time, and commitment terms. The same VM configuration can cost 20-40% more or less depending on which cloud you choose and how your workload runs. On paper, all three offer similar virtual machines. In reality, they price capacity, discounts, and idle time very differently.

Following the end of maintenance of the Ingress NGINX project, we have been working behind the scenes to migrate our customers’ clusters from Kubernetes Ingress + NGINX Ingress Controller to Gateway API + Envoy Gateway.
