Hello everyone! In this article, we will take a technical look at Tencent EdgeOne Makers , a Web and Agent development and deployment platform built on Tencent EdgeOne infrastructure. Rather than following a step-by-step tutorial, we will explore how the platform works behind the scenes and how its different technologies work together to support modern web applications. We will look at the journey from source code and build processes to deployment on the EdgeOne network. We will also explore how edge computing and caching deliver content closer to users, how Edge Functions and Cloud Functions handle server-side workloads, and how EdgeOne Makers supports AI Agents, storage, deployment environments, and developer tools . By understanding how these components interact, we can get a clearer picture of what Tencent EdgeOne Makers offers and how its architecture differs from traditional web hosting. Modern web applications are built from more than a frontend. They may combine APIs, serverless computing, storage, deployment automation, and AI services. Tencent EdgeOne Makers is a Web and Agent development and deployment platform built on Tencent EdgeOne infrastructure. It brings these capabilities into one environment, connecting application development with build processes, deployment, edge delivery, serverless execution, and AI development. EdgeOne Makers evolved from EdgeOne Pages, expanding from frontend hosting to full-stack Web and Agent development. Its architecture connects source code, deployment, and EdgeOne's global edge network. 1. From Source Code to Deployment At the center of Makers is its build and deployment workflow. A project can be connected to a Git repository, allowing Makers to detect common frameworks and apply build configurations. Developers can define parameters such as the root directory, installation command, build command, and output directory. Source Code → Git Repository → Build System → Deployment → EdgeOne Infrastructure → Users A push to

Your robots.txt may express an AI policy you did not write. We checked the homepage and robots.txt of 9,037 live AI tools listed on directree on 6 and 7 September 2026. Of those, 945 explicitly disallow OpenAI’s GPTBot in its own user-agent group: 10.5% of the sample. Treat AI crawler rules as deployment configuration. Review them when you change hosting, enable a CDN feature, adopt a starter template, or hand site operations to someone else. Read the full research and methodology . GPTBot, search, and user browsing are separate A common configuration blocks model training while keeping a site available in AI-assisted search and browsing: User-agent: GPTBot Disallow: / User-agent: OAI-SearchBot Allow: / These are separate crawlers with separate purposes. In our sample, 839 of the 945 sites that block GPTBot, or 88.8%, still allow OAI-SearchBot. That is a deliberate and useful distinction if your goal is to opt out of training while remaining eligible to be cited in ChatGPT search. The same pattern appears across AI labs. ClaudeBot is explicitly blocked by 10.1% of the 9,037 tools, while Claude-SearchBot is blocked by just 0.1%. Google-Extended is blocked by 9.9%, but its purpose is also distinct from ordinary Google Search crawling. Do not assume a broad-looking rule has the result you want. Check the actual crawler names and decide which capabilities you want to permit. A safe way to review your file Start by opening the public URL: https://your-domain.example/robots.txt Then look for three things: A named crawler group, such as User-agent: GPTBot . A Disallow: / directly inside that group. A wildcard group, User-agent: * , that could affect all crawlers. Our measurement only counts a site as blocking GPTBot when the named GPTBot group itself contains Disallow: / . This matters because ordinary technical exclusions are widespread. Only 31 sites in the 9,037-site sample, or 0.3%, block every crawler outright. Meanwhile, 44% have a path-level Disallow rule in a wildc

The idea I wanted a small side project that could actually run itself once shipped — no cron jobs to babysit, no upstream API to go down at 3am and take my uptime with it. That constraint led somewhere specific: an API that validates common business data formats — phone numbers, IBAN, VAT/tax IDs, BIC/SWIFT codes, credit card numbers, postal codes — using nothing but offline checksum and format rules. No third-party lookups. No API keys to rotate for an upstream provider. No rate limits inherited from someone else's infrastructure. If it's slow or wrong, it's my bug, not a dependency's outage. The stack Hono on Cloudflare Workers — TypeScript, no cold starts, runs on the free tier comfortably up to 100k requests/day libphonenumber-js , ibantools , jsvat , card-validator — all well-maintained, all pure computation, zero network calls Vitest for tests, run against real fixtures (not made-up test data — every "valid" example in my test suite is a real IBAN/VAT/card number pulled from each library's own published examples, verified against the actual library output before I trusted it) The whole thing is about 300 lines of TypeScript across the router and six validator modules. Small enough to actually reason about, which mattered more to me than feature breadth. app . post ( " /v1/iban/validate " , async ( c ) => { const body = await c . req . json < { iban ?: string } > (). catch (() => null ); if ( ! body ?. iban ) { return c . json ({ error : " missing required field: iban " }, 400 ); } return c . json ( validateIban ( body . iban )); }); The part that actually surprised me I expected the code to be the hard part. It wasn't. Deploying and listing it on RapidAPI was. Two things stood out: CORS mattered even though I "shouldn't" need it. Real production traffic through RapidAPI's gateway is server-to-server — CORS is a browser-enforced concept, so I assumed it was irrelevant. But RapidAPI's own in-dashboard request tester runs as a real browser fetch, and without an O

The cloud bill is the only number in most companies that nobody on the team owns until it's already a problem. Engineering owns latency. It owns error rates, p99, uptime, the whole observability wall. Finance owns the invoice. And between those two ownerships there's a gap wide enough to drive a fifth to a third of your cloud spend straight into a wall — which, across the industry, is roughly what happens. The fix isn't a smarter spreadsheet at month-end. Real cloud cost management isn't an accounting function at all — the fix is to stop treating the bill as accounting and start treating it as a product metric: cost per request, cost per tenant, cost per feature, sitting on the same dashboard as latency and error rate, owned by the same people who own those numbers. That's the whole argument. The rest of this post is why it's true and how it's done. The bill is a lagging accounting artifact, and that's the bug Here's how cloud cost is treated almost everywhere. A bill arrives. Someone in finance reconciles it against a budget. If it's higher than expected, a thread gets opened, an engineer gets pulled in, and everyone spends a week spelunking through Cost Explorer trying to reconstruct why a number that's already been spent is what it is. Then it happens again next month. Every part of that loop is broken. The signal arrives weeks after the decision that caused it. The person reading the signal can't act on it. The person who can act on it never sees it. And the unit of measurement — total dollars — tells you nothing about whether the spend was good . A bill that doubled because you doubled revenue is a triumph. A bill that doubled because someone left a debug log streaming to an expensive tier is a fire. Total dollars can't tell those two apart. They look identical on the invoice. This is the same mistake we'd never make with any other production signal. Nobody reviews latency once a month from a PDF. Nobody waits for finance to tell engineering that p99 regressed.

For AWS Savings Plans vs Reserved Instances, the default answer is: buy a Savings Plan, not a Reserved Instance. The exception is OpenSearch, Redshift, and (until December 2025) databases, which still need the older Reserved model. That is the whole decision. For most teams a Compute Savings Plan is the right default: same discount as a Convertible Reserved Instance, far less to manage, and it follows your workload across instance families, regions, Fargate, and Lambda. The cases where a Reserved Instance still wins are narrow and specific, and the December 2025 launch of Database Savings Plans shrank them further. This post is the decision — RI vs Savings Plan, when each wins. It is not a deep-dive on how Savings Plans work under the hood; I cover the mechanics — how the $/hour commitment gets applied, the billing-hour math, the queue order against On-Demand — in a separate post. Here I only want to answer the question you actually have when the Cost Explorer recommendation pops up: which one do I buy? (Commitments are step three of a full bill audit — where they sit in the order is in what I'd audit first on a $50K AWS bill .) The short version Both Reserved Instances and Savings Plans are the same trade: you promise AWS a one- or three-year commitment, AWS gives you a discount over On-Demand. The difference is what you commit to . A Reserved Instance commits you to a specific instance configuration — family, and depending on type, size, region, OS, tenancy. A Savings Plan commits you to a dollar amount of usage per hour (e.g. "$10/hour of compute"), and AWS applies that discount to whatever matching usage you actually run. The Savings Plan is the more flexible instrument at the same discount level, which is why AWS itself now recommends Savings Plans over Reserved Instances for compute. ( AWS, Compute Savings Plans and Reserved Instances , accessed June 2026.) The Reserved Instance has not gone away — but for EC2 compute, it is mostly the legacy choice now. The d

This is a submission for Weekend Challenge: Generosity Edition What I Built A donation ledger for a group too small to buy software. It is a Google Sheet, some Apps Script, and one public page a donor can open. The group I had in mind is the kind that exists on every street: a neighbourhood fund, a school parents' group, a committee that collects for winter coats. Money arrives over WhatsApp and leaves in cash, and somebody keeps it in a notebook. The arithmetic is not the hard part. The hard part arrives three months later when a donor asks where their money went, and answering needs the notebook, the person holding it, and an afternoon. Software for this exists and is priced for organisations with a finance team. So the ledger stays in a spreadsheet a volunteer already knows how to open, and the only thing added is what a spreadsheet cannot do alone: read messy human messages, refuse to trust its own reading , and publish the page that answers the question before it is asked. Demo The public page a donor opens → That page is the deployed page, byte for byte, with one line changed: where the Apps Script version writes <?= data ?> , the demo fetches the same JSON from a file so you can read it without a Google account. The JSON is produced by running the sample month through the same recordEntry() and publicView() the real script uses, so if the ledger rules change, the demo changes with them or the build fails. The sample month deliberately includes the things that go wrong: a receipt two volunteers forwarded, a donation typed with one zero too many and later corrected, and a reading the checks refused to trust. What the model read, and whether it was allowed to count → The ledger page shows the result. This one shows the part worth showing. Pick any of six real donation messages and it highlights the exact characters Gemini says it read the amount from, lists the three checks with their outcomes, and says why the row was posted or held. It is fed by a recorded run

The engineering team at software company Figma recently documented how they built AI agents to help their security team investigate alerts, search past incidents, check company systems, and even prepare code fixes. The agents learn from previous investigations, reducing repetitive work and helping engineers resolve complex alerts about 70% faster. By Renato Losio

Nineteen OOM kills in nine days. Ten WordPress apps on a 32GB shared box. One of them a client site that took a CPU spike on 14 July during a paid campaign burst, and pushed the whole tenant into the wall. This post is the diagnosis before the rebuild. What we actually found when we stopped guessing. Two layers of Cloudflare, one page cache plugin, one preloader being silently challenged, and a language subpath that was cold every time it mattered. I'm writing it partly for anyone who runs multi-tenant WordPress on Cloudways or similar, and partly as a reminder for future-me. There's a checklist at the end. Steal it. The client is anonymized throughout. Every number is real. The stack Traffic hits two Cloudflare layers before it reaches origin. Both are Cloudflare, but they're different zones on different accounts, and they own different things. [ visitor ] ↓ [ Upstream Cloudflare zone (managed by a third party) ] ← DNS, SSL, HTML edge cache ↓ [ Cloudflare Enterprise add-on sold by Cloudways ] ← WAF, bot, rate limit, AI crawler block ↓ [ Cloudways origin: nginx + PHP-FPM ] ↓ [ WordPress + WPML + Elementor + FlyingPress ] Two Cloudflares isn't a mistake. The domain has been on Cloudflare via an upstream party since before the site moved to Cloudways. When Cloudways later offered a Cloudflare Enterprise add-on for its security stack, we kept both. We manage the Cloudways side. We don't own the upstream zone, which shapes what we can and can't do without a request going out. The trap is that both layers can cache HTML, and both can serve security challenges. If nobody writes down which layer does what, they fight. Our ownership split ended up like this: Layer Owns Upstream Cloudflare (third party) DNS, SSL, HTML edge cache, purge lifecycle Cloudways CF Enterprise add-on WAF, bot management, rate limiting, AI crawler blocking, ScrapeShield, Browser Integrity Check FlyingPress Origin page cache, Cloudflare integration pointed at the upstream zone, purge rules Cloudways "

Security Bolted on at the End Is Not DevSecOps The most common failure pattern in teams that claim to "do DevSecOps" looks like this: build the pipeline, ship the feature, and run a security scan right before release — treating security as a checkbox at the end of the process instead of something built into every stage of it. That's not DevSecOps. That's a security review with extra steps. Real DevSecOps means security is woven into the pipeline itself — scanning dependencies on every commit, catching misconfigurations before they're deployed, and treating a vulnerability the same way you'd treat a failing test: something that blocks the pipeline, not something reviewed manually after the fact. This guide is for people who already have some DevOps or backend foundation and want to understand what it actually takes to move into a DevSecOps-focused role — not just "add security" to an existing skillset, but understand the mindset shift that makes the discipline distinct. This post originally appeared on the Ciphemic Academia blog . What "DevSecOps" Actually Requires DevSecOps sits at the intersection of three skill areas, and a real role expects working competence across all three, not deep expertise in just one: DevOps fundamentals — CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, containers, the same core skills a cloud/DevOps engineer needs Application security — understanding common vulnerability classes, how to find them, and how to actually fix them, not just recognize their names Security automation — the specific skill of embedding security checks into a pipeline so they run automatically, consistently, on every change That third point is what actually distinguishes DevSecOps from "a DevOps engineer who also cares about security." It's specifically about automation and process — making secure practices the default path, not an extra manual step someone has to remember to do. Step 1: Confirm Your DevOps Foundation Is Solid DevSecOps is not an entry point into DevOps —

TrueNAS CORE has been the standard for open-source storage using FreeBSD and OpenZFS. The shift to TrueNAS SCALE, based on Debian, left some users needing alternatives. FreeCORE upgrades TrueNAS CORE to FreeBSD 15.0, restoring essential features like FreeBSD Jails. While it satisfies certain administrators' needs, its long-term sustainability and maintenance by a single individual raise concerns. By Olimpiu Pop

Every Azure project eventually has the same conversation. Where do we store the connection string? Someone suggests an environment variable, and someone else points out that environment variables end up in deployment pipelines, in Docker compose files, in Terraform state, and occasionally in accidental commits. A secret manager gets proposed, and the secret manager needs its own credentials to access the secrets. The problem recurses. Managed Identity doesn't solve the secret manager problem by adding another layer. It removes the credential from the equation entirely for workloads running inside Azure, so the application doesn't authenticate with a stored credential but as itself, using an identity that Azure manages automatically. What Managed Identity actually does When you enable a Managed Identity on an Azure resource, Azure creates an identity in Microsoft Entra ID tied to that resource's lifecycle. The resource can then request short-lived tokens from the Azure Instance Metadata Service endpoint at 169.254.169.254 , which is only reachable from within Azure infrastructure, and those tokens are what the resource uses to authenticate against other Azure services. There's nothing to store, nothing to rotate manually, and nothing that can be leaked in a repository because the credential never exists as a static string anywhere in your codebase or configuration. The key property from Microsoft's documentation is precise: managed identities give code running on an Azure resource access to other resources without developers needing to handle or put credentials directly into code. The emphasis on "code running on an Azure resource" matters because Managed Identity only works from within Azure. A local development machine can't reach the Instance Metadata Service endpoint, which means the local development flow still needs an alternative authentication mechanism, typically az login or a service principal configured for development only. System-assigned vs user-assigne

“Let’s split it into agents” has become the AI equivalent of “let’s make it a microservice.” Sometimes the boundary is useful. Sometimes it only creates more state, more coordination, and a harder failure to explain. The most dangerous assumption is that separate agents should run in parallel. Parallelism is safe only when the branches are genuinely independent. If one branch changes the world while another is evaluating it, both agents can make locally reasonable decisions that are unsafe together. Google ADK 2.0 makes workflow topology explicit through graph-based Workflow objects. That is valuable because sequences, branches, and joins become part of the program instead of an agreement hidden in a supervisor prompt. Series note: This is Part 5 of Reliable Google AI Agents in TypeScript . The examples were checked against @google/adk 2.0.0 in September 2026. Start with the dependency, not the agent count Imagine a system preparing a hotel recommendation. It needs live inventory, company travel policy, and a final recommendation. Inventory lookup and policy evaluation can run concurrently because both observe the same request and neither changes shared state. The final decision must wait for both. Now consider a different pair of operations: one agent changes the reservation; another calculates an upgrade using the current reservation. Those branches are not independent. Running them concurrently can make the upgrade decision depend on state that no longer exists. Before drawing a parallel branch, ask: Do both operations only read the same starting state? Can either operation change data the other consumes? Can either produce an irreversible side effect? Is there a deterministic way to combine their results? What happens when one succeeds and the other times out? If those answers are unclear, parallel is an optimization you have not earned yet. Encode safe parallelism as fan-out and join ADK’s TypeScript Workflow graph can express two independent branches and a joi

In a recent research paper, Google introduced Beyond Zero, a “security model for the AI era” that extends Zero Trust to autonomous AI agents. The new approach moves access decisions from the application level to individual resources and actions, combining static authorization controls with dynamic AI-driven decisions to enable machine-speed enforcement for humans and agents.

Cloud technology is evolving faster than ever. From containers and Kubernetes to serverless platforms, infrastructure as code, observability, and AI-powered developer tools, there is always something new to explore. As a cloud enthusiast, I’ve learned that keeping up with technology isn’t about learning everything. It’s about staying curious, understanding the fundamentals, and continuously experimenting. ☁️ Exploring Modern Infrastructure Modern infrastructure has changed the way we build and operate software. Tools like: Docker for containerization Kubernetes for orchestration Terraform for infrastructure as code GitHub Actions for automation Prometheus and Grafana for observability Cloud platforms for scalable infrastructure have become an important part of the modern developer toolkit. But tools are only part of the journey. Understanding why we use them is just as important as knowing how to use them. 🛠️ Learning by Building One of my favorite ways to learn is by building small projects. Instead of only reading documentation or watching tutorials, I try to turn concepts into something practical: Learn it → Build it → Break it → Fix it → Understand it Breaking things is often where the best learning happens. A failed deployment, a misconfigured container, or a broken CI/CD pipeline can teach lessons that a tutorial sometimes can't. 🚀 What's Next? The cloud ecosystem is moving toward more automation, platform engineering, AI-assisted development, and increasingly intelligent infrastructure. That makes this an exciting time to be learning. There will always be another tool, another framework, or another platform to discover. And that's the fun part. Stay curious. Keep building. Keep breaking things. Keep learning. ☁️🚀 This is just the beginning of my journey into cloud, infrastructure, developer tools, and modern technology. More experiments and lessons coming soon.

Microsoft opened GitHub Copilot code review for Azure Repos to all Azure DevOps customers, after acknowledging that many are not ready to migrate to GitHub.

A tool claiming "up to 15x faster than cdk deploy" showed up in my feed a while back. Drop-in replacement, it said: keep your CDK app exactly as it is, just swap cdk deploy for cdkd deploy . I've learned to be skeptical of "Nx faster" claims. So I actually deployed something real to AWS with both tools and timed it. Short version: it really is that fast. What cdkd actually is cdkd deploys an existing AWS CDK app without going through CloudFormation. It calls the AWS SDK directly instead. It's built by go-to-k (Kenta Goto), an AWS DevTools Hero and CDK top contributor who also maintains cls3 (a fast S3 bucket emptier) and delstack (for cleaning up stuck CloudFormation/CDK stacks) — tools that quietly fix the annoying parts of working with AWS. cdkd feels like the biggest one yet, and I mean that as a compliment grounded in actually using it, not a throwaway one. The mechanism is straightforward. cdkd runs the exact same CDK synth step as the CDK CLI, producing the same CloudFormation template. What changes is everything after that: instead of handing the template to CloudFormation, cdkd's own engine reads the resource dependency graph ( Ref , Fn::GetAtt ), builds a DAG, and fires AWS SDK / Cloud Control API calls directly, in parallel, as soon as each resource's dependencies are satisfied. Worth saying up front: cdkd calls itself not production-ready, dev/test only. This isn't a "replace CloudFormation in prod" pitch. I actually ran both, on real AWS cdkd's own README backs up the 15x number with a VPC + Lambda + SQS + CloudFront benchmark. So I wrote that same stack as a CDK app and deployed it twice — DeployRaceCfn via cdk deploy , DeployRaceCdkd via cdkd deploy — to the same AWS account, same region (ap-northeast-1). The stack: VPC (2 AZ + NAT Gateway) with a Lambda inside it, fronted by a Function URL CloudFront, origin set to that Function URL SQS + EventSourceMapping + a consumer Lambda First attempt failed. The account had hit its VPC limit (five, the default)

How do you run an autonomous AI agent in the cloud 24/7 for just $5.70 a month? I recently wanted to build a background worker with persistent disk storage and an instant web dashboard, but I didn't want the headache of managing a virtual machine or paying a massive monthly bill. If you are building long-running agents, you know this exact cloud hosting dilemma: Standard serverless (like Cloud Run services or Lambda): When traffic stops, the container scales to zero — instantly killing your background loops and wiping your agent's active memory (RAM). On the flip side, a sudden traffic spike spins up multiple containers that can overwrite each other's state files and corrupt your data. (Note: Save state using JSON or Markdown files. Avoid SQLite, as Cloud Run volume mounts ) A regular virtual machine (like EC2 or Compute Engine): Keeps your agent running 24/7, but a standard 1-vCPU machine typically costs $15 to $25 a month even when idle. Even if you use a heavily-throttled fractional VM for $7/month, you are still stuck with the full infrastructure management overhead. Last year, I built a multi-agent Trend Spotter with ADK . It worked well, but I wanted to make it fully autonomous: a continuous, long-running agent that scans and summarizes tech feeds in the background without manual triggers or high hosting costs. Google Cloud's new Cloud Run instances primitive solves this exact problem. It gives you a single, always-on container that runs 24/7, costs $5.70 a month on a shared CPU, provides a free HTTPS endpoint, and lets you mount cloud storage like a normal local disk. Here is how to build and deploy a production long-running agent with this setup (you can follow along with the complete source code in the repo . What are we building? I want to stay up to date with what is happening in AI and agent engineering. But instead of manually opening 20 browser tabs across different websites every morning, I wanted to build my own long-running agent that updates me on

Originally published on indiecore.net . I deployed, opened the console on the live site out of habit, and found this: Loading the script 'https://static.cloudflareinsights.com/beacon.min.js/v3d52…' violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'inline-speculation-rules'". The action has been blocked. I had not added that script. It is in no template, no build output, and no dependency. grep -c cloudflareinsights dist/index.html returns 0. It is not in the page you build Cloudflare Web Analytics has an automatic mode, on by default when a site is added, that injects beacon.min.js into HTML responses at the edge. Your origin never sees it. Your repository never contains it. It also does not inject for everything. I fetched the same URL with curl, then again with a full desktop browser User-Agent, and neither response carried the script. Only a real browser navigation gets it, which is why Lighthouse saw it and my terminal did not. That combination is worth sitting with for a second. The artefact exists in production, is absent from your source, and cannot be reproduced with the tool most of us reach for first when we want to see what a server actually returned. Nothing was tracked The CSP did its job. From the Lighthouse network trace: url : https://static.cloudflareinsights.com/beacon.min.js/v3d52… resourceType : Script statusCode : -1 transferSize : 0 Status −1 with zero bytes transferred means the request never started. The browser matched the URL against script-src , found no permitted source, and refused before opening a connection. No data left anyone's browser. So the console error is the sound of a guard working. It still costs something: a logged error drops the Best Practices category from 100 to 92, and a red line in the console trains you to ignore red lines in the console. The fix everyone reaches for is the wrong one here Search the error and the common answer is to add https://static.cloudflareinsights.com

Ever Wondered How Netflix Never Seems to Go Down? Think about this for a second. Netflix has over 260 million subscribers worldwide. People are watching shows in Tokyo, London, Lagos, and New York — all at the same time. And yet, when was the last time Netflix crashed on you? Now think about your favourite food delivery app. You open it, order food, track your driver in real time, and get a notification the moment your burger arrives. All of that happens in seconds. Behind all of this is a way of working called DevOps. And by the end of this article, you'll understand exactly what it is — no jargon, no complicated diagrams, just plain English. The Old Way (And Why It Was a Nightmare) To understand DevOps, we first need to understand the problem it solved. Imagine a software company in the early 2000s. They had two completely separate teams: The Developers — the people who wrote the code and built new features The Operations team — the people who managed the servers and kept everything running These two teams barely talked to each other. Developers would spend months building new features, then hand over a massive pile of code to the operations team and say "here you go, make it work." The operations team would panic. They hadn't been involved in building it, had no idea what it did, and now they had to deploy it to millions of users without breaking anything. The result? Deployments took weeks. Bugs slipped through. Systems crashed. Customers complained. And the two teams blamed each other. Sound stressful? It was. So What is DevOps? DevOps is simply the practice of bringing developers and operations teams together to build, test, and release software faster and more reliably. The name itself is a combination of Dev (Development) and Ops (Operations). Instead of two teams working in silos, they work as one team with shared goals, shared tools, and shared responsibility. Think of it like a restaurant kitchen. In a badly run kitchen, the chefs cook the food and just s
