Uber has open-sourced uForwarder, a push-based Kafka consumer proxy built to handle trillions of messages and multiple petabytes of data daily. The system introduces context-aware routing, head-of-line blocking mitigation, adaptive auto-rebalancing, and partition-level delay processing to improve scalability, workload isolation, and hardware efficiency in large-scale event-driven microservices.

As a spiritual successor to TSLint, it offers near-instant diagnostics and fixes, leveraging native Node support for .ts imports. Enhanced developer tooling and a new TSL compatibility layer simplify linting in large-scale projects.

This article presents a least-privilege AI Agent Gateway that places clear controls between AI agents and infrastructure. Agents do not access infrastructure APIs directly.

Those who used AI for conceptual inquiry scored 65% or higher, while those delegating code generation to AI scored below 40%.
