Mercari keeps a standby copy of every Elasticsearch shard on a PVC so scale-out skips a 10-minute wait

Mercari keeps one idle replica of every Elasticsearch shard on a PVC, so scale-out no longer waits on a shard copy that took 10 minutes or more. That let the team raise an HPA CPU threshold held near 65%. Raising it exposed an HPA tolerance problem.

Exabeam extends AI-assisted security operations to on-premises LogRhythm SIEM

Exabeam is bringing AI-assisted operations to its on-premises LogRhythm SIEM and says its Nova agent triages cases 30 times faster than analysts. The speed figure is Exabeam's own measurement, and teams that keep data local still need to find out where the on-premises AI processing happens.

An NFS-only StorageClass leaves Zeebe's RocksDB commits without an atomic rename

An air-gapped cluster of 10 servers runs every workload on NFS. The write-up blames that for Elasticsearch and Zeebe I/O failures, and its own numbers rule out Longhorn and local-path on ~100GB node disks.

PlanetScale's TIN searches a Postgres row the moment its transaction commits

The extension puts BM25 ranking behind an ordinary Postgres index, so a newly committed row is searchable without a trip to an Elasticsearch cluster. PlanetScale's own benchmark reports 199 queries per second against ParadeDB's 7.9.

JSONB and pgvector cover two of the five roles this Postgres consolidation absorbs

A dev.to design guide moves JSON documents and vector search into one PostgreSQL instance, and the evidence it offers is operational: deleted ETL pipelines and sync bugs, with no query timings on either side.

Voss rests the case against license-level charging on three reversals and one buyout between 2017 and 2025

The post's hawks-and-doves model explains why MIT-style terms keep winning. Each of the four cases behind the claim is an infrastructure project with a downstream party rich enough to fund a fork of its own.

Qdrant's 10-billion-vector benchmark ships with a load tester that also drives Milvus

The corpus is 24.47 TB. The ground truth cost more than a quadrillion distance computations. What actually changes a procurement conversation is the YAML-configured harness, which also runs against two competing engines.

One company holding the copyright is the trait that predicts the next relicensing

A dev.to essay offers MongoDB, Elastic, HashiCorp and Redis as proof that the managed-cloud moat is dead. Its dates hold up better than its summary of them. The screening trait survives either reading.

Metadata discovery turns an MCP client into an unauthenticated fetch primitive

A researcher found the SSRF guard sitting on the credential-submission side of an MCP auth SDK while the .well-known discovery fetch ran unchecked from the public entry point, which is the wrong end of the flow to protect.

A depth-bounded Cypher path returns each ASML supply link with the article that established it

Multi-hop supply questions are cheap to ask in Cypher and awkward everywhere else. The traversal only holds if every article's name for a company lands on the same node. The post breaks off before that gets solved.
