Neon vs Netlify

Databricks Powers Agentic Future with $7B Run Rate

Databricks, the data and AI company, has revealed it has surpassed a $7 billion revenue run rate, growing 80% year-over-year, and is valued at $190 billion. The company, which began as a Spark-based data processing platform, has evolved through multiple technology S-curves—Spark, Lakehouse, Lakebase, and now AI agents. Databricks' Lakehouse architecture unifies data lakes and warehouses, while its new Lakebase product, built on the acquisition of Neon, brings operational databases onto the same lakehouse foundation. The company is positioning itself as the 'system of record for agents,' with tools like Genie and Agent Bricks enabling employees to build and manage AI agents. With over 17 million databases launched by agents daily, Databricks is betting on the rise of agentic automation transforming the nature of work and the structure of firms, shifting from managerial hierarchy to human-agent collaboration.

Claimable Neon: Provisioned by agents, claimed by humans

WebHaste Launches Local-First CMS for Smaller Websites

WebHaste, a free, local-first Content Management System (CMS) developed by Destination Toolbox, has been released in public beta. Designed for teams building and managing smaller websites (under 100 pages), it aims to eliminate server-side infrastructure headaches like plugin updates, SSL certificate management, and security concerns. The CMS operates as a Chrome extension, offering file management, visual editing, real-time previews, and template rendering. It deploys finished sites to CDNs like Cloudflare Pages and Netlify, and supports local ownership of site files. Key features include built-in SEO (sitemaps, meta descriptions, OpenGraph tags), agency-friendly tools (shared drives, Git, per-page tracking pixels), and AI collaboration readiness with file-aware AI agents for content management without publishing rights. The product is positioned as an alternative to database-driven systems like WordPress for simpler sites, including informational sites, blogs, campaign landing pages, and portfolios.
