New blog post! Whop powers thousands of creators and communities. When big influencers (millions of subscribers) brought their communities, real-time features—chat, notifications, feeds—it pushed Postgres to the edge. The DB was the bottleneck killing Whop’s scaling efforts. So, when Whop decided to migrate to PlanetScale, Evil Martians cooked up a dual-database Rails setup that let them keep shipping while migrating. Our results: “We successfully moved 750GB of production data from Postgres to PlanetScale — with zero downtime,” says Jack Sharkey, founder of Whop. https://lnkd.in/ev6_erPQ

Agentic traces contain perfect information about an agent’s behavior with every plan, action, and retry. But that information gets lost in a sea of JSON. So we built AgentPrism: open source React components that turn traces into visual diagrams for debugging AI agents. You can plug in your OpenTelemetry data and see your agent’s process unfold: messages, tool calls, retries. Quotient AI automatically monitors, analyzes, and improves AI agents. Being able to review traces quickly is paramount for their research, and for their customers. “Dealing with agent traces was one of the biggest frustrations for our researchers and a huge time sink. All of that has gone away since adding AgentPrism, and we’re excited to bring that functionality to our users.” — Julia Neagu Developed in partnership with Quotient AI, AgentPrism now powers their state-of-the-art trace visualizer: https://lnkd.in/dfdR-4cA AgentPrism brings structure to your agent’s chaos: open source React components for visualizing OpenTelemetry traces. Open sourced for everyone building with agents. Explore the code → https://lnkd.in/dr8z2k8F
