Aug 25, 2026 By Leo Baecker In Hyperping
Summarize with ChatGPT Summarize with Claude The best Redis monitoring setup usually combines more than one tool. Use Prometheus with redis_exporter and Grafana for open-source metrics and alerts, Redis Insight when you need to inspect keys and slow commands, Datadog when Redis failures need to connect to application traces and logs, and Hyperping for the outside-in availability and incident-response layer. I analyzed 32 products and shortlisted seven.

AI speeds up delivery. Here's how IT leaders manage the risk when AI-generated code hits production.

Aug 24, 2026 By Redgate Software In Redgate
AI can accelerate speed to market, but for IT leaders it also raises a harder question: can you prove how an AI-generated change reached production? Chris Yates (SVP, Managing Director of Data & Architecture, Republic Bank) explains how his team builds a full evidence trail for every change, using version-controlled deployment tooling like Redgate Flyway Enterprise, so governance becomes a guardrail rather than a brake on speed.

13 best practices for database development in Visual Studio 2026

Aug 20, 2026 By Rosemary Asufi In Devart
Database development rarely breaks all at once. It happens through small changes that seem harmless at the time. Someone adds a column directly to the shared database. A stored procedure gets fixed in production but not in the project. An index is created in staging and never added anywhere else. Everything looks fine until the next release. Then the differences start showing up, and nobody is quite sure which version of the schema is correct.

Introducing the Flyway MCP Server: governed database change, now available to your AI coding assistant

Aug 7, 2026 By Ryan Gee In Redgate
AI coding assistants have changed how fast application code gets written. Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, and agentic tools built on top of them can generate a working feature in minutes. But none of them know your database's history. They don't know that a migration already renamed that column last sprint, that a policy forbids unqualified DELETE statements, or that the target environment has drifted from what your migrations say it should look like.

10 Best MySQL Monitoring Tools Compared for 2026

Aug 7, 2026 By Ramya Shah In Motadata
Your monitoring console probably covers the switches, the hosts, the VMs and the application traces. The database tier is the gap. It tends to live in a separate tab. Somebody opens that tab once the incident bridge has already started. That gap got more expensive this year. On 21 April 2026, Oracle moved MySQL 8.0 to Sustaining Support. The version most production estates still run no longer gets new fixes. Good MySQL monitoring tools close the gap.

When Your SQL Table Outgrows Itself: Lessons from Refactoring at Scale | Harness Blog

Aug 6, 2026 By Moshe Tsur In Harness
At Harness, we build an AI-powered software delivery platform, and test result data is core to how we help engineering teams ship faster. The table that stores it started small: one row per record, all the context right there on the row. Simple, readable, and it worked. Until it didn't. This is the story of how we refactored it, what we learned, and what I'd tell you to watch for in your own systems.
