Developer Onboarding

Welcome to the future of developer onboarding with Cortex. In this demo, you’ll see how Cortex helps new engineers ramp up faster by giving them instant access to everything they need—context, ownership, best practices, and workflows—all in one place. What you’ll learn in this video: With Cortex, onboarding becomes a structured, data-driven, and empowering experience. Developers can explore your ecosystem confidently, follow golden paths, and start delivering value immediately—reducing ramp-up time from months to days.

Terminate Idle Connections Automatically

Learn how to automatically close inactive connections in your Aiven for PostgreSQL service using pgBouncer’s idle timeout setting. In this demo, we’ll walk through the Aiven Console to adjust the server_idle_timeout value in pgBouncer’s advanced configuration, helping you optimise performance and free up resources by terminating idle connections faster.

Orbital Materials: WorldClass AI Models Built on CivoStack

Daniel Miodovnik, COO of Orbital Materials, explains how the CivoStack enables world‑class AI models that outperform the big‑tech giants. He outlines the power‑draw and cooling of megawatt‑scale GPU racks, the water‑ and CO₂‑intensity of today’s data centres, and why a sovereign, Civo‑based solution is the key to speed, and predictable costs.

How the CLI Simplifies Git Workflows

Managing 50 repos with different Git workflows is like conducting an orchestra where every musician is playing a different song. We built GitKraken CLI to fix this: multi-repo actions, a single command for all things Git, and team-wide standardization that doesn't sacrifice speed. Watch the full video on how we're simplifying complex workflows without dumbing down Git.
