We are excited to announce the latest release of SecureBridge, EntityDAC, and the full family of dbExpress drivers. This update delivers expanded IDE compatibility, support for the latest database versions, new security components, and platform improvements that benefit developers across the Delphi and Lazarus ecosystem.

When you’re building.NET applications, the choice between free ORM tools and commercial ones can make or break your project’s future. It’s not about one side winning, both have standout strengths. Free tools like Entity Framework Core or Dapper offer flexibility without the price tag. However, as projects grow, teams need commercial tools to deal with larger schemas, more complex mappings, and multiple developers working on the same data layer.

Short Summary: Many companies evaluate cloud platforms when they reach scalability limits on existing infrastructure, with migration decisions typically driven by a broader mix of factors: cost optimization, availability, security, and access to managed services. However, despite this shift, a lot of teams still run SQL Server on their own servers. Keeping these systems running well requires good monitoring, performance tuning, and regular maintenance.

We are thrilled to announce a new release of our Delphi Data Access Components product line. This update delivers broader platform compatibility, enhanced security, and extended support for modern database technologies across multiple providers.

Summary: Today, many teams are moving from MySQL to PostgreSQL as they update their database systems and plan for future growth. However, too often, there is extra work after the migration: for example checking that tables and constraints were copied correctly, tuning performance, and confirming that replication works properly. Devart’s PostgreSQL tools help DBAs with these tasks through features like Schema Compare, Data Compare, and other tools that help review and manage PostgreSQL databases.

Short Summary: PostgreSQL can slow down when range queries and frequent data updates rely on the same indexes. This guide shows how to spot the problem and use Devart tools to reduce B-Tree index conflicts, improve query plans, and manage bi-weekly data updates in AWS Aurora.

We are thrilled to announce a set of product updates across our dotConnect data providers and Entity Developer. The new release adds support for Entity Framework Core 10, introduces AI-focused vector data types across major databases, and extends compatibility with the newest platform capabilities such as SQL Server 2025, Oracle 26ai, and Microsoft Entra authentication.

We are happy to announce the release of Review Assistant 4.3, introducing support for integration with Visual Studio 2026 and a more practical permissions model for viewing project reports.

We’re excited to share Code Compare 5.5 R1, the latest update to our code comparison and merge tool. This release adds integration support for Visual Studio 2026, so teams can compare changes and resolve merge conflicts directly within the IDE workflow they already use. With Code Compare 5.5 R1, developers can review differences, apply merges, and handle conflicts in Visual Studio 2026 using the same comparison experience they rely on across projects and repositories.

Short Summary: Sometimes URL paths repeat by mistake because of tracking problems or redirect loops.. In this guide, you’ll learn how to find and count those repeats using Trino SQL. By using simple SQL tools like CTEs, arrays, and window functions, you can break a long link into smaller pieces and clean up the data without using complex regex.
