We’re building CryptoLabe, an internal AI-powered tool that discovers cryptography across our codebase, surfaces dependencies, and helps us progress toward a full post-quantum migration by 2029. Here’s what we’ve learned so far.
Twelve years after launching Universal SSL, Cloudflare is applying to become a certificate authority. By combining an established root, an ACME-first approach, and Merkle Tree Certificates, we are building a post-quantum CA for the open…
As post-quantum signatures threaten to inflate TLS handshakes and certificate transparency logs, Merkle Tree Certificates offer a path to compact, auditable authentication. Cloudflare’s new certificate authority will support MTC issuance…
There was a flurry of activity during the week of September 21st, 2026, highlighting: second milestone releases of: Spring Boot, Spring Batch, Spring Security, Spring AMQP, Spring Integration, Spring Data, Spring Framework, Spring for…
Skydive is a platform that lets teams build AI coworkers that do real work. When a Skydive agent needs a durable state, it deploys an isolated Neon backend mid-task, with no human in the path, and it takes it around a second.
Adobe engineers have described an open-source approach for giving teams self-service access to their own Prometheus metrics in multi-tenant Kubernetes environments, without exposing the shared metrics of other teams. By Craig Risi
Gonzalo Maldonado explains how technical leaders can translate engineering skills into startup success using his "VC Abstraction Layer Knowledge" (VALK). He shares hard-won lessons on finding product-market fit, structuring pitches like…
Software company Atlassian has published an account of its migration from gostatsd to OpenTelemetry, replacing the internal workings of a metrics platform that receives data from about 100,000 hosts across 14 regions. The existing service…
Cloudflare has introduced Worker Previews. This feature allows each Git branch to have its own isolated, production-like environment for a Worker. Each environment has a stable URL. It also has its own configuration and unique state for…
Ryan sits down with Div Garg, CEO at AGI Inc., to talk about running AI agents entirely on mobile devices, optimizing models for edge computing chips, and building safety mechanisms into autonomous app interactions.
Cloudflare has made Python Workers generally available, built on PEP 783 and on socket syscalls implemented over the Workers connect API. The announcement carries no performance figures. A urllib3 maintainer questioned who supports the…
Errata: the max_connections post told you to size that parameter for “the replication connections.” On 12 and later, don’t. WAL senders have their own seats, sized by this parameter, and have not drawn from max_connections since PostgreSQL…
