We are excited to announce major updates across our dotConnect Providers product line and Entity Developer. The release introduces expanded API support, new business objects and reports, improved authentication capabilities, and broader compatibility with modern.NET platforms. Our dotConnect product line continues to evolve with the latest technology changes.

In 2026, choosing the best PostgreSQL ADO.NET providers, or the right PostgreSQL.NET driver, comes down to the details. You need to know how they perform under load, how well they fit your stack, and what happens when things break. This guide compares the leading provider options side by side to help you identify the right fit for your environment. By evaluating these PostgreSQL ADO.NET providers, you can avoid pitfalls early, saving evaluation time and preventing costly fixes later.

Modern.NET applications depend on stable ADO.NET providers to connect their logic with MySQL databases. But developers often run into familiar issues, async performance that’s unreliable, providers that differ in maturity, licensing that’s unclear, or integration friction with EF Core or cloud pipelines. In this guide, you’ll get a clear, architecture-based comparison of the top ADO.NET providers for MySQL.

Most IT teams running a real hybrid setup are not short on data. They are short on a place where the data agrees with itself. By the end, you will know what to ask a vendor for, where teams usually trip, and how to scope a proof of concept that does not burn a quarter. Hybrid cloud monitoring is the ongoing collection of telemetry across your on-prem kit and one or more public clouds, treated as one environment instead of two or three. The goal is not just visibility.

Your developers are already using AI agents. GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code. Not just for autocomplete, but to generate features, run test suites, and iterate across branches. Each agent needs a database to work against. And in most organizations, nobody has checked what's actually in that database, or whether it should be there.

VictoriaMetrics Operator has been developing at a neck-breaking pace, bringing numerous improvements, features, and fixes to our community. We usually make at least a single release every two weeks. While this rapid iteration cycle is great for delivering fixes and improvements quickly, it can be challenging for administrators managing critical production environments.

Running your own certificate authority sounds like the responsible choice for internal infrastructure. Distribute your root cert to every machine and issue certs internally. In practice, you spend the next six months chasing down every device, contractor laptop, and vendor console that didn’t get root installed. The warnings come back. And when they do, people click through them, because they always have. There’s a simpler path, and most teams don’t know it exists.

The Agent Impact Leaderboard and the Business Impact & ROI Dashboard are live in preview inside GitKraken Insights today. We built them because the questions engineering leaders are getting asked about AI shifted faster than the tools to answer them. Here’s what shipped and how to get access.

Your VoIP calls are choppy. File uploads are crawling. Your team is complaining that the CRM is sluggish, and remote desktop sessions keep freezing. You check your firewall, your switches look clean, and there are no alerts on your LAN. The problem isn't inside your network. It's upstream, and it's happening quietly every day during peak hours.

Most IT organizations are trying to reduce help desk demand the same way they have for years: by making the help desk itself more efficient. They improve routing, tighten SLAs, expand self-service, and add AI into the support flow. These changes can make the queue move faster, but they do not stop the work from arriving in the first place. The same problems keep finding their way back to IT. Employees lose time to slow devices, unreliable apps, failed updates, access issues, or confusion after a rollout.
