IBM buying Confluent is just another move to secure a safe place for enterprise. Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM—or Confluent.

Stop sending analytics data 'just in case'. Learn why unnecessary data creates security risks, wastes resources, and why 99.99% of that data is never used.

Four trends reshaping data: open source dominance, hyper-distributed analytics, emerging standards (Iceberg, Kafka), and the quest for AI-native databases.

Systems that work at scale, fail at scale. AWS us-east went down, or at least partially down, and took a chunk of the internet with it.

Don't let single-node limits crush your availability and elasticity. The future of operations is distributed.

Exploring multitenancy, free tier tradeoffs, autoscaling limits, and why Tinybird maintains its own ClickHouse fork.

Discover why exorbitant cloud egress fees stifle competition and kill innovation, and what the EU's new Data Act could mean for the future of tech.
