Every year, WSO2Con brings together developers, tech enthusiasts, and IT leaders from around the world to dive into the latest in APIs, identity management, integration, and now AI. It’s a space to learn from keynotes and hands-on sessions, share best practices, and get a first look at what’s new from WSO2. So when people walked into the AI Labs at WSO2Con, they expected to hear about AI agents. What they didn’t expect was to meet one, embodied inside a four-legged robot dog.

Do you have a DB2 database that needs a REST API? Now you can connect to your IBM DB2 with DreamFactory in just a few minutes. In this short blog post I’ll explain how you can connect to DB2 with DreamFactory’s auto-generated REST API for DB2.

Python has long relied on pip as its standard package manager, but a blazing-fast alternative is now changing the landscape. uv is a Rust-based package manager that aims to transform Python dependency management with unmatched performance and simplicity. In this guide, you will learn everything you need to know about uv and how to smoothly transition from the traditional pip ecosystem. Let's get started!

Modern apps, dashboards, and integrations need SQL Server data over HTTP. The safest pattern in 2025 is: expose only what you intend via read-only views, front it with a managed API layer (authn/authz, rate limits, logging), and publish documented REST endpoints. This guide shows a practical, production-ready path with DreamFactory.

FrankenPHP bills itself as “The Modern PHP App Server” and provides a single-process solution to running PHP. Its worker mode allows to greatly increase the performance of cleanly developed applications that are compatible with it by saving on framework bootstrapping time. Unfortunately, not every application is compatible with worker mode. Depending on the amount of global state kept by the application, updating it for worker mode is not always easy.

When writing Elixir, most developers quickly get familiar with IO.inspect as a quick way to see what's happening inside their code. But what many overlook is that IO.inspect is far more powerful than just a method that prints a variable to the console. In fact, with the right options and placement, IO.inspect can become a precise, highly targeted debugging tool, one that doesn't interrupt your program flow and works seamlessly with Elixir's functional pipelines.

Swift extensions are one of the most useful tools in iOS development, allowing us to add new functionality to existing types without subclassing or rewriting code. In this guide, we’ll break down how extensions work, why they matter, and how to use them effectively. You’ll learn: By the end, you’ll know how to use extensions to write cleaner, faster, and more maintainable Swift code.
