Technical depth on AI, Azure, Next.js, and the engineering decisions behind them.
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.
