Stop fighting bloated SaaS and start building the exact tools you need to solve your distribution problem. Learn more: speedscale.com.

How to Add Intent and Metadata to OpenAPI in Swagger Studio for AI Agents

Modern APIs aren’t just read by developers anymore; they’re also interpreted by tools and AI agents. In this video, Solutions Architect Joe Joyce walks through how to enrich an OpenAPI definition in Swagger Studio with meaningful metadata such as descriptions, summaries, operation IDs, tags, schemas, and examples. You’ll see step-by-step how these additions help tools and automated agents better understand API intent, purpose, and semantics. This turns your OpenAPI definition into a contract that scales beyond documentation.

Multi-Database API Integration for AI Systems | DreamFactory

APIs are transforming how AI interacts with enterprise data. Instead of directly connecting AI to databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB - which can lead to security risks, schema complexities, and high maintenance - APIs act as a secure middle layer. This approach simplifies data access, reduces risks, and ensures seamless integration with multiple databases.

Is OpenTelemetry overkill? There's a lazier (and better) way. #speedscale #sre #ebpf #kubernetes

If you "aspire to be lazy" like we do, you know that building staging environments and mocking complex back-ends (like MySQL, AI models, and 3rd party APIs) is a massive time sink. In this demo, we show you how to use Internet Magic (aka eBPF) to: Stay tuned for Part 2, where we take these recordings and spin up a staging environment automatically.

If you’re looking to scale testing while keeping everything organized and traceable, this integration is built for you.

Turn test data into release insights with AI | SmartBear MCP for Zephyr

Testing teams need to know if they’re ready for a release. Getting answers within Jira, however, often means jumping between multiple screens and reports. In this demo, see how you can query your test data with SmartBear MCP for Zephyr to get insights directly from your testing system of record, so you can make faster, more informed release decisions. From within AI tools like Copilot, Claude, or VS Code, you’ll learn how you can.

The Axios Supply Chain Attack Proves Why Server-Side API Credential Management Is Non-Negotiable

On March 31, Axios—the most widely used HTTP client in the JavaScript ecosystem, with approximately 100 million weekly npm downloads and a presence in roughly 80% of cloud environments—was compromised via a hijacked maintainer account. Two malicious versions (1.14.1 and 0.30.4) delivered a cross-platform remote access trojan (RAT) that harvested credentials, SSH keys, cloud tokens, and API secrets from every machine where they were installed.
