Technical depth on AI, Azure, Next.js, and the engineering decisions behind them.
Manufacturing corpora mix scanned paper, CAD exports, work instructions, and supplier specs. Making them searchable with high recall and precision requires a thoughtful Azure AI Search skillset and indexer design. This post walks through the OCR, entity extraction, chunking, and semantic ranking choices that separate production-quality indexes from POCs.
One year after the Digital Operational Resilience Act entered into force for financial-sector firms on 17 January 2025, this is what Swedish fintech engineering teams actually learned about ICT risk, incident reporting, TLPT, and the third-party register.
Connection pooling, retry logic, and the serverless-tier quirks every team running Prisma against Azure SQL should design for — with concrete pool sizing, transient-fault handling, and the connection string parameters that actually matter.
A grounded look at where Partial Prerendering beats traditional SSR and ISR in Next.js 15 — the Suspense patterns that make it work, the caching traps, and the pages where it delivers no real benefit at all.
A practical review, one year after the EU AI Act Article 5 prohibitions entered into force on 2 February 2025 — where Swedish B2B teams over-reacted, where they under-reacted, and what must ship before the August 2026 high-risk deadline.
One year after MCP shipped, this is what adoption actually looks like — server ecosystems, integration patterns, security concerns like tool poisoning and prompt injection, and the open questions heading into 2026.
A pragmatic decision framework for modernizing legacy .NET and SQL Server systems in 2026 — when to rewrite, when to refactor, when to wrap, when to replace, and when the honest answer is to archive. With expand-contract migration patterns and rollback realism.
Microsoft renamed Azure Cognitive Search to Azure AI Search in late 2023 and added substantial vector, semantic, and agentic-retrieval capabilities. Manufacturing teams running legacy Cognitive Search deployments need a structured migration plan — not a like-for-like upgrade, but a targeted modernisation of the features that matter most.
A practical allocation framework for Swedish CTOs planning 2026 IT spend — from EU AI Act governance infrastructure and Entra Agent ID, to Azure Sweden Central residency work, NIS2 gap closure, and the investments worth deferring.
Manufacturing document processing is a high-volume, high-format-diversity problem. Azure AI Search (formerly Azure Cognitive Search) is the Microsoft-native platform that fits it well when configured correctly. This post walks through the architecture patterns that actually ship at industrial scale.
A year-end, hype-free review of where agentic AI actually shipped in 2025, which patterns graduated from pilot to production, and which still need work before they are safe to trust with consequential decisions.
A review of the npm supply-chain incidents that defined 2025 — typosquats, self-replicating worms, and dist-tag hijacks — plus the concrete hardening steps every Next.js team should have in place before 2026.
