Spotter 3 Meets MCP: Your AI Analyst, Everywhere You Work

More business teams are doing their thinking inside Claude and ChatGPT than ever before. Research, planning, analysis, content: it's all happening inside LLM platforms now. But the moment someone needs an answer grounded in actual enterprise data, the workflow breaks. They leave the AI, open the BI tool, run the query, copy the result back. Context lost, momentum killed. That's the problem we set out to solve when we launched ThoughtSpot's Agentic MCP Server back in July.

How ClearML Fits Into a Zero-Trust Kubernetes Architecture

Zero trust is an architectural principle, not a product. It means assuming breach, verifying every connection explicitly, and granting the minimum access required for each interaction. This post covers how those principles apply to Kubernetes AI infrastructure and specifically how ClearML’s security model slots into each layer: network segmentation, workload identity, access controls, and audit logging. Kubernetes AI infrastructure and where ClearML fits into the model.

The Cost of Good Versus Excellent

The data storage industry is constantly pushing boundaries. We demand speed, efficiency, and reliability. But how do we truly measure the distance between “good enough” and “mission-critical”? In our world, that distance is measured in 9s. And the cost is certainty. You've likely heard your cloud providers talk about the industry standard for availability. For many, this has become a synonym for “five 9s” (99.999% uptime). On paper, that sounds impressive, right?

AI Agent Integration: Gartner Research Confirms Need for AI Control Layer

Three-quarters of enterprises are now piloting or deploying AI agents. But here’s the problem: actually integrating those agents with enterprise applications is proving to be one of the hardest parts of the whole endeavor. The research doesn’t mince words about the challenge. And it maps directly to the infrastructure gap Kong was built to address..

3 ways Fivetran uses AI internally

Like many companies, Fivetran has recently piloted a number of projects and internal tools using AI. AI offers the potential to augment or accelerate a huge range of day-to-day business tasks, including better understanding and prioritizing customer requests, surfacing trends across multiple business units, and automating customer communications. The key to delivering value using AI is to ensure that it has access to quality data and a data infrastructure capable of providing it.

AI code created a new testing problem | From the Bear Cave Ep. 3

SmartBear’s study Closing the AI software quality gap found that 60% of teams have already experienced quality issues tied to AI-generated code, evidence of how increased abstraction is changing how software gets built. When development shifts from well-defined requirements to prompts and generated outputs, it becomes much harder to understand what the system is actually supposed to do, and what you should be testing against.

Conversation tree branching in @ably/ai-transport

Picture a developer pair-programming with an AI assistant. The model returns a function that almost works. The developer asks it to try again. The second attempt is worse. They want the first one back. In a linear chat, that history is gone, or it's a third bubble in the thread that pollutes context for every future turn.

The Role of Microservices in Digital Banking Transformation: Architecture, Migration & Implementation Guide (2026)

A customer opens a banking app at 9:02 AM to check a failed payment. The balance looks wrong. Support says, “It’s a system delay.” The transaction finally reflects several hours later. That’s not a UX problem. It’s an architecture problem. Traditional banks still run on tightly coupled, monolithic systems designed for batch processing, not real-time expectations. But customers today compare banking experiences to Google Pay or Apple Pay, not legacy core systems.
