What Are SQL Server Agent Jobs: Guide With Examples

Behind every reliable dashboard and morning report stands a system of accountability: SQL Server Agent jobs. They’re what keeps backups on time, analytics flowing, and data pipelines steady when everything else moves fast. However, to sustain that reliability, SQL Server Agent must operate with precision at scale.

Bloom filters: the niche trick behind a 16× faster API

This post is a deep dive into how we improved the P95 latency of an API endpoint from 5s to 0.3s using a niche little computer science trick called a bloom filter. We’ll cover why the endpoint was slow, the options we considered to make it fast and how we decided between them, and how it all works under the hood.

The Hidden Bottleneck in Latency: GetYourGuide's Database Performance Journey

Fast front-end and back-end code alone won’t guarantee low end-to-end latency as hidden bottlenecks in the database can undermine even the best engineering efforts. In this session, Oleksii Serhiienko, Senior Site Reliability Engineer at GetYourGuide, will share how his team put database performance at the center of their monitoring strategy. He will highlight how they identified and fixed slow queries, uncovered load balancing issues that drove significant cost savings, and built monitoring practices that improved both reliability and investigation workflows.

From Error to Fix: AI-Powered Debugging with Sentry and GitHub

​This session will focus on the agent based features of Sentry for debugging an issue in a web application. We'll move through the broken issue - and show how tools like Sentry Seer and the GitHub repo integration make it easy to determine the root cause of an issue by bringing all the context of Sentry and code in GitHub together, and how the Sentry MCP makes it easy to pull all that context down into GitHub CoPilot to fix it locally.

LogicMonitor Named to CRN's 2025 Edge Computing 100: Proof That the Edge Finally Has Some Brains

Edge computing has been the buzzword of the decade. Everyone is talking about pushing intelligence closer to the edge, but most of that intelligence still needs a map and a flashlight. This week, CRN named LogicMonitor to its 2025 Edge Computing 100, recognizing companies that are actually doing something useful at the edge instead of just hyping it. We are honored. We are also a little amused.

Dynamic Stage | Execute a Pipeline within a Stage !

The new Dynamic Stage allows you to import and execute an entire pipeline's YAML definition inside a single stage of your current pipeline. It is essentially running a pipeline within a stage. The pipeline YAML can either be generated and transformed at runtime in a previous stage, or be directly provided to the source input of the Dynamic Stage in encoded form. Dynamic Stages work seamlessly across Harness CI and CD modules.

UK Cybersecurity Bill #shorts

The UK introduces a cybersecurity bill that enforces stricter regulations for critical infrastructure. As threat actors become more aggressive and utilize AI for advanced attacks, the legislation mandates organizations to respond quickly to incidents. Vendors must notify authorities within 24 hours, and emergency powers are created to improve cybersecurity responses. The emphasis is now on managing exposure in vulnerability practices.

Reimagining software delivery with AI-powered workflows in Jira & Bitbucket

If you’re like most developers, you know that writing code isn’t the bottleneck anymore. AI has made it faster than ever, and chances are you’re already using it. Yet, delivering software is still complex because of everything else you have to manage: fixing vulnerabilities, reducing tech debt, cleaning up feature flags, ensuring test coverage, writing documentation, and the list goes on. That’s why we built Rovo Dev, a context-aware AI agent for developers.
