Until recently, we extensively used HashiCorp's CDK for Terraform. Then they announced the end of its development. We didn't want to spend months migrating to a new ecosystem, but we needed a replacement. In the Infrastructure Team at Ably, we like Go. I wondered if there was an opportunity for something simpler.

Like many other countries, India has made moves to protect consumers’ data. Comparable to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), India’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act establishes new, higher standards for data privacy, timely breach notification, and consent management.

Cyber insurance has become a standard line item in enterprise risk management, and for good reason. The financial consequences of a significant cyber event, whether a ransomware attack that halts operations for weeks or a data breach that triggers regulatory scrutiny and third-party liability, can far exceed what any operational budget was sized to absorb. Insurance exists to handle that tail. Most organizations recognize this benefit and carry a policy.

The new Konnect Dev Portal Toolkit extension for Visual Studio Code gives you a live, portal-accurate preview of your content right beside the file you are editing. You watch a page take shape exactly as it will appear to your developers, as you type, without ever leaving your local editor.

*You wouldn't expose a REST API without a gateway. What about Kafka?* You would never expose a REST API without an API gateway in front of it. Authentication, rate limiting, observability, access control — these aren't optional extras. They're mandatory, and we've spent the last decade building the API gateway pattern to solve exactly this problem. So here's the question worth sitting with: would you expose Kafka or any event stream without a gateway?

If you've been following the agentic AI wave, you've probably noticed that the conversation tends to center on the agents themselves: which LLM to use, which orchestration framework to pick, which use cases to tackle first. But a growing body of analyst research is pointing to a different bottleneck, one that's hiding in plain sight: integration. Forrester's David Mooter argues that integration must sit at the center of your AI strategy — not as plumbing, but as a strategic capability.

When a PropTech product struggles, the issue usually isn’t the code. A skilled team can build the wrong thing well: a listing platform on a data model that buckles when the second MLS feed arrives, a CRM that ships to spec while agents quietly stop using it, an MVP that investors, agents, and end users each expected to do something different. That gap between what the business assumes, what users need, and what the architecture can support is what we mean by PropTech product misalignment.

Debugging Android apps can feel daunting given the sheer size of the ecosystem. However the suite of Android Studio debugging tools allows us to find, fix and prevent problems across our entire user base. Wherever they are, whichever devices they’re using. This guide will give you a practical workflow to maximize the functionality of Android Studio, and empower you to debug Android apps from first breakpoint to production issues.

FastAPI has become one of the most popular web frameworks among Python developers. It's so popular that it often overshadows the technologies it's built on. FastAPI is built on Starlette and Pydantic. Starlette handles the HTTP layer (routing, middleware, WebSockets, the ASGI plumbing) and Pydantic handles data validation. FastAPI is the layer on top that ties them together with type-driven parameter parsing, dependency injection, and automatic OpenAPI documentation.
