Postman added an artificial intelligence (AI) agent to its portfolio of tools and platforms for building and governing application programming interfaces (APIs) that can autonomously perform tasks ranging from development and documentation to exploration and setting up integrations with continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) environments.Company CEO Abhinav Asthana said the Autonomous API Engineer significantly reduces the total cost of building and maintaining APIs by automating time-consuming tasks that have historically created bottlenecks in software engineering workflows.In fact, the AI agent developed by Postman will make it significantly simpler to integrate API development and testing within those workflows, said Asthana.Designed to be…

A while ago we suddenly had an error while trying to deploy one Fabric workspace to another using fabric-cicd. The issue was with a GraphQL object and the following error was returned:Failed to publish GraphQLApi ‘my_graphql’: Operation failed. Error Code: DatasourceInvalidStoredProcedure. Error Message: Only those stored procedures whose metadata for the first result set described by sys.dm_exec_describe_first_result_set are supported.The GraphQL object indeed uses a couple of custom stored procedures as mutations and apparently one was not behaving. I remembered the sys.dm_exec_describe_first_result_set from my old SSIS days, as it used with stored procs (or other SQL statements) to retrieve the metadata…
It’s time for T-SQL Tuesday again! And we’re almost to number 200! T-SQL Tuesday is a monthly community blogging event started by Adam Machanic in 2009. Each month a host picks a topic, participants write about it on the second Tuesday of the month (9th of June), and the host posts a recap with links to all the responses.The TopicI was intrigued by this blog post from Alexander Arvidsson (blog | bluesky | linkedin): The Whiplash Effect – The Skills We Forgot We’d Need. He talks about the fact that more and more clients are considering moving back to on-prem.…

Rocky Linux 10 replaced VNC with RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) for remote graphical installations, so if you’ve got a headless server and no monitor to plug in, this guide shows you exactly how to run the full Anaconda installer from your workstation using 3 boot parameters. Most real servers don’t have a monitor attached and sit in a rack, where they are powered on and managed entirely over the network from a remote system. That works fine after the system is installed because you can manage it over SSH, but the initial OS installation is different, especially when a graphical…
Modern DevOps practices have completely transformed how we handle compute and orchestration. Tools like Kubernetes enable engineering teams to spin up ephemeral containers in seconds and scale workloads dynamically to meet global demand. Yet the underlying network infrastructure has remained stubbornly rigid. Traditional cloud networking relies heavily on static IP addresses, rigid firewall rules, and slow DNS propagation. This creates a severe architectural mismatch where highly dynamic compute layers are trapped inside static network topologies.This friction becomes a critical failure point when deploying modern distributed workloads. Artificial intelligence applications and autonomous multi-agent systems are inherently transient. They migrate across cloud…

The agentic coding space is getting more crowded. xAI has made Grok Build 0.1, its fastest coding model, available via the xAI API in public beta. That means developers can now build directly on top of the same model that powers xAI’s Grok Build CLI — without needing a SuperGrok or X Premium+ subscription.This is a meaningful step. Until now, access to Grok Build has been limited to paying subscribers using the CLI. Opening it up through the API puts it in front of a much wider developer audience and positions it as a tool for building AI-powered applications, not…
A self-signed SSL certificate lets you run Apache over HTTPS on Rocky Linux 10 without buying one from a Certificate Authority, which makes it the right call for staging servers, internal apps, and local lab setups where a publicly trusted cert isn’t needed. A self-signed SSL certificate is a simple way to enable HTTPS on Apache without purchasing a certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA). Many older tutorials still use a basic openssl req -x509 command to create a certificate. While that works, it often creates a certificate without a Subject Alternative Name (SAN) that modern web browsers such as…
Balance, Bounce & Believe: A Practical Guide for Young Gymnasts is the book our daughter, Shaivi Pinalkumar Dave, has written, and for Nupur and me, it is not only a book. It is a promise from 2009 that learned how to walk, then run, then fly, and has now come home wearing our daughter’s name on its cover. It is the sound of years becoming meaning. It is the sound of a baby we once held against our chests at two in the morning becoming a young author with a voice strong enough to stand without us. I have held many…
