Ingesting the Milky Way: Petabyte-Scale with Zerobus Ingest (7 minute read)
Databricks announced general availability of Zerobus Ingest, a serverless streaming service that demonstrated the ability to ingest 1 petabyte of data in under 24 hours—sustaining 12 GB/s throughput to a single Delta table—using NASA's 200 billion data point NEOWISE dataset as a benchmark. The service eliminates the need for Kafka infrastructure by using a push-based API with stream-level ordering guarantees and a custom zero-copy protobuf parser that achieves ~1 GB/s parsing per CPU core.

Introducing Flights: Agent-Native Ingest in MotherDuck (4 minute read)
MotherDuck launched Flights, a public-preview feature for building and running agent-native data pipelines inside a general-purpose Python runtime. Flights can be created through MCP-capable agents, SQL table functions, or the MotherDuck UI, letting teams ingest from APIs, warehouses, SaaS tools, S3, or dlt pipelines while keeping secrets inside MotherDuck and moving from raw source data to analytics in a single agent session.

Diagnose EKS Node Issues Faster with AWS DevOps Agent and Custom MCP (11 minute read)
AWS released a custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that extends its DevOps Agent's autonomous troubleshooting capabilities to EKS worker nodes, giving it structured access to 20+ node-level diagnostic sources like iptables rules, kernel logs, and CNI configuration through AWS Systems Manager automation. The open-source reference implementation successfully diagnosed a fault-injected DNS failure by autonomously collecting node diagnostics, comparing against healthy nodes, and identifying the root cause—iptables DROP rules blocking pod traffic—without requiring manual SSH sessions.

How Dropbox uses MCP and Dash to close the design-to-code security gap (8 minute read)
Dropbox built a system combining Model Context Protocol, large language models, and its Dash AI to automatically check if code changes align with security threat models during code review, after discovering that only 12% of pull requests linked back to their original security reviews and 54% were created over a month after the review was filed. The system uses Dash's indexing capabilities to retrieve relevant threat models and has already identified missing security controls and contradictions that were invisible without connecting the implementation to original requirements.

GitHub pulls pin on npm's auto-run scripts (5 minute read)
GitHub will make npm safer by default in npm 12 by disabling install-time scripts, Git-based dependency fetching, and remote URL downloads unless explicitly allowed, reducing common software supply chain attack vectors. Developers can still approve required packages through allowlists, though the changes are breaking and require projects to review and permit legitimate install scripts used by tools such as Playwright, Puppeteer, Electron, and native modules.
