SurrealDB is the result of a long-time collaboration between brothers Tobie and Jaime Morgan Hitchcock. The project has modest origins and started merely to support other projects the brothers were working on. However, over time the project grew and in 2021 they started working on it full-time. Since then the project has gained serious adoption.
What’s makes SurrealDB so special? Tobie Morgan Hitchcock is the CEO of SurrealDB and he joins the show to talk about his multimodal database, support for graph and time series data, why they rewrote the entire project in Rust, and more.

Miro is one of the platforms that I think has been really creative about how it’s incorporating AI. I created a dependency mapping on a Miro board to help think through a new software system. The idea was to visualize direct and indirect dependencies, and refine the connections between them.
The AI features helped summarize and cluster the information, making it easier to understand and work with. I’m also impressed with Miro AI’s ability to auto-generate images from text. This has a lot of value for software and product teams that need to do dynamic brainstorming and idea development.
