How to Turn SQL Server Stored Procedures into REST APIs: Complete Guide

Enterprises have invested decades of development effort into SQL Server stored procedures. These procedures contain critical business logic—validation rules, complex calculations, transaction handling, reporting queries—that applications need to access. But stored procedures weren't designed for modern API-driven architectures.

AI Agent with Strands SDK, Kong AI/MCP Gateway & Amazon Bedrock

In one of our posts, Kong AI/MCP Gateway and Kong MCP Server technical breakdown, we described the new capabilities added to Kong AI Gateway to support MCP (Model Context Protocol). The post focused exclusively on consuming MCP server and MCP tools through Kong MCP Gateway. Now, it's time to check how an AI agent can leverage the AI and MCP infrastructure exposed and protected by Kong AI/MCP Gateway.

Software Deployment In 2026: Checklist & Strategies That Work

Software deployment looks simple on paper, but in real projects, it’s where most failures show up. Even stable code can break when deployment isn’t planned well. In 2026, software deployment is no longer just about pushing code – it’s about reliability, speed, and control. Let’s explore how modern teams can deploy smarter, faster, and safer in 2026.

Supercharge your LLM Using Production Data Context

Are your LLM coding agents (like Cursor or Claude Code) hallucinating fixes because they don't know what's actually happening in production? In this video, Matt from Speedscale shows you how to bridge the gap between your local IDE and live production traffic using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Most observability tools just give you telemetry. Speedscale’s MCP server gives your agent the "inner workings" of actual API calls and payloads, so it can check its assumptions against reality. No more "vibe-coding" and hoping it works; let your agent find the 500 errors and rate limits for you.

Let Your LLM Debug Using Production Recordings

Modern LLM coding agents are great at reading code, but they still make assumptions. When something breaks in production, those assumptions can slow you down—especially when the real issue lives in live traffic, API responses, or database behavior. In this post, I’ll walk through how to connect an MCP server to your LLM coding assistant so it can pull real production data on demand, validate its assumptions, and help you debug faster.

API Testing With Cypress | Kristin Jackvony | TTTribeCast Webinar

API tests are faster and more reliable than UI tests. So why aren’t more testers using them? In this session, we’ll learn what kinds of API tests to run, and how to easily configure them in Cypress. Your API tests can live alongside your UI tests, providing valuable fast feedback for the quality of your application!

Speedscale vs. LocalStack for Realistic Mocks

API mocking plays a crucial role in modern software development allowing developers to simulate external API endpoints. It’s an effective way to isolate your application for testing and ensure that code changes don’t inadvertently break critical dependencies. Essentially, API mocking helps you create robust, reliable software by allowing you to test how your application interacts with external services.

How to Do Full-Text Search Across All Application Traffic with Speedscale

Modern DevOps observability tools are excellent for monitoring system health, tracking distributed traces, and aggregating metrics. However, they lack the fidelity needed for full-text search across application traffic. While observability platforms excel at showing what happened and when, they often fall short when you need to find where a specific piece of data (like an email address, user ID, or transaction token) appears as it flows through your entire application stack.
