InfoQ Reading List
Presentation: Beyond the Warehouse: Why BigQuery Alone Won’t Solve Your Data Problems
Sarah Usher discusses the architectural "breaking point" where warehouses like BigQuery struggle with latency and cost. She explains the necessity of a conceptual data lifecycle (Raw, Curated, Use Case) to regain control over lineage and innovation. She shares practical strategies to design a single source of truth that empowers both ML teams and analytics without bottlenecking scale.
By Sarah UsherJava Explores Carrier Classes to Extend Data-Oriented Programming Beyond Records
The OpenJDK Amber project has published a new design note proposing “carrier classes” and “carrier interfaces” to extend record-style data modeling to more Java types. The proposal preserves concise state descriptions, derived methods, and pattern matching, while relaxing structural constraints that limit records.
By A N M Bazlur RahmanVercel Introduces Skills.sh, an Open Ecosystem for Agent Commands
Vercel has released Skills.sh, an open-source tool designed to provide AI agents with a standardized way to execute reusable actions, or skills, through the command line.
By Daniel DominguezAgent Trace: Cursor Proposes an Open Specification for AI Code Attribution
Cursor has published Agent Trace, a draft open specification aimed at standardizing how AI-generated code is attributed in software projects. Released as a Request for Comments (RFC), the proposal defines a vendor-neutral format for recording AI contributions alongside human authorship in version-controlled codebases.
By Robert KrzaczyńskiArticle: From Alert Fatigue to Agent-Assisted Intelligent Observability
As systems grow, observability becomes harder to maintain and incidents harder to diagnose. Agentic observability layers AI on existing tools, starting in read-only mode to detect anomalies and summarize issues. Over time, agents add context, correlate signals, and automate low-risk tasks. This approach frees engineers to focus on analysis and judgment.
