DreamFactory 7.4.5 ships the aggregate_data MCP tool — a purpose-built tool that lets AI agents compute SUM, COUNT, AVG , MIN, and MAX directly on the database server in a single call. This release also adds Cursor IDE OAuth compatibility, a desktop OAuth success page for smoother onboarding, server-side aggregate expression support across all SQL connectors, and critical MCP daemon stability improvements including request timeout guards and global error handlers.

Before rolling out policy-driven APIs, it's crucial to have a governance framework in place. This framework should clearly outline who makes decisions, how approvals work, and how exceptions are handled. Interestingly, while 71% of organizations claim to have data governance programs, only 25% actually put them into practice. Even fewer - just 28% - have enterprise-wide oversight for AI governance roles and responsibilities.

If we want our apps to succeed, we have to get our buttons spot on. They allow our users to navigate around our apps, show their preferences and define their own personal user journeys. Not only that, they play a crucial role in the overall look and feel of our apps, and enhance our overall brand image if we get them right.

The SwiftUI vs UIKit question may seem like a sticky web of pros, cons and competing nuances. But ultimately, it boils down to one thing: Which framework is best for my specific app? The answer shouldn’t be based on hype or trends. It should be based on your own real-world parameters, like team size, UI complexity and long-term maintenance. Understanding your own development realities is crucial to making the right choice between SwiftUI and UIKit.

From optimizing startup times to simulating real-world network chaos, discover how to build an automated mobile performance testing strategy that scales across thousands of real devices and protects your user experience.

AI APIs don't get enough credit for how much weight they're actually carrying. These AI APIs aren't merely technical connectors. They're, in fact, cost drivers and potential revenue engines. And when something goes sideways, they're ground zero. In production, they behave nothing like the traditional APIs your teams have been running for years; they introduce a whole new set of hurdles around operations, security, and governance that most organizations are still struggling to understand.

For teams using CI/CD, the specs of the build machine can have a significant impact on development productivity. Faster builds mean shorter fix-and-verify cycles, which speed up the overall development process. However, it’s hard to know how fast each CI/CD service actually is without comparing them under the same conditions. In this article, I compare the iOS build speeds of GitHub Actions, Bitrise, and Codemagic using the same Flutter project, and compare them in terms of cost-performance as well.
