Raygun APM Agent 3.1: async traces that stay with the right request

Raygun APM Agent 3.1 introduces more accurate asynchronous request tracing for Windows, Linux, and Azure App Service. Version 3.0 rebuilt the foundation of the Agent, profiler, installers, and release pipeline. Version 3.1 builds on that work with a focused improvement for ASP.NET Core: automatic request correlation that follows asynchronous execution without requiring developers to instrument their application. The result is a more accurate trace, with less duplication and a clearer view of the work performed for each web request.

Best Code Review Collaboration Platforms for AI Teams

Your team ships more code than ever, but are your pull requests keeping pace? As AI-assisted development accelerates output, code review collaboration platforms have become the difference between shipping confidently and merging blindly. The right platform connects your review workflows, surfaces context where you need it, and keeps collaboration flowing across distributed teams.

On SQLAlchemy 2.1.0 or 2.1.1, Fixing an N+1 Could Change Your Results

The standard fix for an N+1 query in SQLAlchemy is to eager load the relationship with selectinload(). On SQLAlchemy 2.1.0 and 2.1.1, that fix can change your results.

Where the Future Runs: Reinventing Infrastructure for the AI Era | Civo Navigate London

The data centre was built for a different era. Racks drawing more power than entire rooms once did, heat that air alone can't carry away, and inference that needs to run close to the work are forcing a rethink from the ground up. In this fireside chat from Civo Navigate London, Civo CEO Mark Boost, Anthony Sarno and Josh Mesout explore how the demands of AI are reshaping the data centre and challenging traditional approaches to cloud infrastructure.

Shadow AI: How to Find And Control The AI Tools Your Company Didn't Approve

Shadow AI on company computers often starts with an AI agent that an employee installed on their own, signed in with a personal subscription and connected to internal systems through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Shadow AI is one branch of shadow IT, with a shorter path from install to impact: these tools set up quickly, act on files and systems, and work under whatever account the employee chose. This guide skips the long definitions and goes to the practical part.
