Encore announces embedding a Redis server directly into their runtime, simplifying development by eliminating the need for an external Redis instance.
A detailed guide on building a production-grade agent harness for multi-agent LLM systems, covering components like orchestrator, subagents, skills, backend state management, and context engineering.
Introduces performance improvements by reducing synchronizations during split compute in the ggml backend, adds async CUDA copy capability, and makes sync relaxation more general across backends.
A list of 10 backend development projects to build for learning, including notification systems, video processing queues, and search autocomplete.
Zig's SPIR-V backend has been overhauled with new built-in types, improved execution mode handling, capabilities/extensions from CPU features, multi-threaded codegen, and object file linking, making it more useful for shader and GPU programming.
The author reflects on their mistaken belief that AI agent cost is solely a backend problem, suggesting a broader perspective on cost factors.
A high-performance instant messaging backend based on Rust + Actix-web + QUIC, supporting P2P hole punching, group chat broadcasting, multiple storage backends, can be deployed as a single process or separately.
BlitzGraph is a backend service for graph databases, designed as an AI-native alternative to Supabase tailored for LLM agents.
A developer claims to have built a full backend (Google OAuth, Stripe payments, AI integration, database, deployment) in 2 hours using AI, offering a breakdown via DM.
The blog post details why the team chose Elixir over Go, Rust, or Node for building a performant Bluesky DataPlane, leveraging the BEAM's concurrency for the hot path and offloading compute-intensive operations to a Rust NIF.
