Contents AI is now embedded across the entire software development lifecycle. Developers use it to generate code. Product managers use it to prototype features. Teams use it to move from idea to deployment faster than ever. Code moves faster. Features ship more frequently. Iteration cycles shrink. Across industries, companies that embrace this speed have a distinct competitive advantage. But in highly regulated industries, including financial services, speed can’t come at the cost of quality.

An AI Data Gateway is a secure intermediary that connects enterprise data sources (like databases and file systems) with AI systems. It simplifies how AI accesses data while enforcing strict security, compliance, and governance measures. Instead of allowing direct access to sensitive data, the gateway uses secure REST APIs to control and monitor all interactions.

There’s something powerful about stepping away from your day-to-day work and being surrounded by people asking the same questions you’ve been thinking about: At JSConf Spain, those answers don’t come from a single talk. They emerge from patterns — ideas that repeat across different speakers, different companies, and different perspectives.

Enterprises in 2026 are under increasing pressure to modernize applications, adopt hybrid cloud architectures, and streamline operations—but their expanding and aging VMware footprints have become a major obstacle. As VMware licensing models evolve and operational costs climb, reducing or restructuring this footprint has become just as critical as adopting new platforms.

Jonas Best & Patrick Polster Kafka migrations are one of the riskiest infrastructure projects a platform team can take on. Miss a dependency and a downstream app starts reprocessing events it already handled leading to breaking SLAs and eroding trust with application teams. Migrate without visibility and you risk a major production issue. The instinct is to reach for a replication tool and call it done. But replication is only one piece of the puzzle.

Data Apps are interactive web applications that run directly in your Keboola project. They let you visualize, explore, and interact with your data without needing external BI tools. Think of Data Apps as your custom dashboards, built exactly how you need them. Now, let's see how Kai makes building Data Apps effortless.

For years, real estate has been described as a data-rich industry. But in practice, most organizations still struggle to collect, trust, and use their data at scale. Across multiple episodes of the Innovation Blueprint podcast, founders, CEOs, and operators repeatedly came back to the same conclusion: the real challenge in real estate isn’t analytics or AI — it’s data foundations.

BigQuery Studio’s latest Gemini-powered assistant goes from being a code assistant into a fully context-aware analytics partner.

The data visualization landscape is experiencing a seismic shift. No longer is it enough to simply present dashboards filled with colorful charts and metrics. Today's decision-makers need something more powerful: the ability to understand what their data actually means, why trends are occurring, and what actions to take next.

According to Perforce's 2026 State of DevOps report, there is a direct correlation between DevOps maturity and AI success. In a highly mature DevOps environment, AI accelerates innovation, optimizes workflows, and enhances security. In an immature environment, it scales chaos, multiplies risk, and inflates costs. So, before we ask ourselves how to make the most of our AI solutions, we must assess if our foundational processes are prepared for the challenge ahead.
