How to Migrate Legacy Swift Code to Modern Concurrency Without A 'Big Bang' Rewrite

Concurrency means running multiple tasks at the same time, and it’s a great way to ensure our apps stay responsive. Swift 5.5 introduced structured concurrency and the closely related concept of async/await to improve the management of asynchronous code, part of a wave of changes designed to ensure simpler code, improved error handling and automatic task lifecycle management.

Manage a Next.js Monorepo with Prisma

Prisma is a modern open-source database toolkit designed to simplify data workflows for developers. It provides a powerful and intuitive way to interact with databases, and it is type-safe. Prisma works well in a monorepo because it can be used in both the frontend and backend of a full-stack application. This enables developers to share types and logic across the entire codebase, resulting in a more efficient development process.

Completing, Integrating, and Publishing Our Game with DragonRuby

In part one of this series, we started developing a simple Flappy Bird clone game using the DragonRuby game development toolkit. We didn't come very far, though — we stopped after integrating player input to keep our plane afloat. In this second and concluding part, we'll implement the remaining simple game mechanics. We'll also take a brief look at interfacing with an HTTP server and publishing our game on itch.io.

Kong AI Gateway and the EU AI Act: Compliance Without the Rewrites

The EU AI Act is here, and for many enterprises, it represents a massive coordination challenge. As the world’s first comprehensive AI law, it mandates strict governance on transparency, risk management, and data quality. For platform engineers and architects, the immediate question is operational: How do we comply with these new regulations without forcing every developer to rewrite their applications?

Tideways 2025.4 Release

In our fourth Release of 2025, we included PHP 8.5 support on the day of its release and Heartbeats to monitor your application’s pulse more closely than ever. If something is offbeat, you’ll receive timely alerts. We improved alerting by introducing fine-granular transaction level response time and made automatic tracepoint triggers more powerful.

Appian DocCenter for Financial Services

Documents are the foundation of nearly every process in financial services, including client onboarding, regulatory reporting, trade lifecycle management, asset servicing, and more. This constant flow of unstructured content, such as Investment Policy Statements, complex legal agreements, and compliance forms, burdens teams with manual review, creates significant operational friction, and increases the risk of data inconsistency and regulatory non-compliance. Watch this video to see how Appian DocCenter automates the entire document lifecycle.
