Your team ships a new feature, traffic spikes, and autoscaling does its job. Great — until the bill arrives and it’s three times what anyone expected. By then it’s too late to do anything about it. Most cloud providers handle this the same way you find out what you spent after yo...

A year ago, if you asked an agent about Neon, you got whatever it half remembered from training. Now it goes looking and reads what it finds. Our docs were written for humans who scroll, not machines that fetch. We’ve been fixing this in pieces, not all at once. This post is what...

For most of 2025, AI coding agents got good at a specific thing writing code. Give an agent a prompt, and it could scaffold an app, wire up an API, write migrations. But when the code was done, the agent stopped. Spinning up a real database, creating an account, getting credentia...

“I’m genuinely surprised by how well it handles that scale. You can create tons of databases and they’re available immediately. You can branch out immediately. All of those things make it really nice for agent managed infra.” Iman Radjavi, Co founder, Specific.dev What Specific b...

There are a few different reasons to hit the brakes on a Postgres query. Maybe it’s taking too long to finish. Maybe you realised you forgot to create an index that will make it orders of magnitude quicker. Maybe there’s some reason the results are no longer needed. Or maybe you,...

“The biggest strength of Neon is how it decouples storage and compute and makes them independently scalable. When an app isn’t being used, the compute node can be put in idle mode at extremely low cost, which lets us handle a wide range of scale and complexity without compromise....

From the start, the team at Encore has been focused on solving a simple problem shipping production infrastructure shouldn’t require a dedicated platform engineering team. They set out to make deploying real applications feel simple without abstracting away control; in Encore, de...

Every AI lab is shipping research agents. OpenAI’s Deep Research, Perplexity, and Gemini’s research mode. These products are not simple RAG pipelines. Recent papers like DeepResearcher and Step DeepResearch formalize what makes them work a recursive loop of planning, searching, l...
