Organizations are increasingly adopting EnterpriseDB's EDB Postgres AI platform due to a rising demand for enhanced control over data in AI systems, particularly in sectors like banking, insurance, retail, and trading. Research from MIT Technology Review Insights indicates that prioritizing AI and data sovereignty significantly predicts success in AI initiatives, with such organizations achieving five times the return on investment.
In South Korea, the Industrial Bank of Korea migrated 15 core systems to EDB Postgres AI, citing significant reductions in licensing costs compared to Oracle and improved scalability for future AI services. Shinhan EZ Insurance transitioned its core system to the public cloud using EDB, overcoming challenges related to legacy database licensing and emphasizing the importance of operational stability.
Beyond finance, companies like MNTN, Euronext FX, and Kyobo Book Centre have adopted the platform to reduce vendor reliance, manage data workloads, and enhance compliance control. MNTN uses EDB for large-scale analytical processing, Euronext FX has implemented it across four data centers, and Kyobo Book Centre migrated from a costly data warehouse to the EDB solution.
A common trend among these deployments is the use of a single Postgres-based platform for transactional processing, analytics, and AI tasks, reflecting an industry initiative to simplify operations and reduce costs. Hensley noted the critical convergence of AI systems with operational data, as AI agents operate against live data in high-volume workflows, highlighting the drawbacks of using separate platforms for transactions and analytics. EnterpriseDB has also received industry accolades for its data management and contributions to the open-source community, reinforcing its market position.
Microsoft rolled out several preview builds of Windows 11 in early June 2026 as part of the Windows Insider Program, focusing on refining existing functionalities rather than introducing many new features. A new Beta channel for version 26H1 was launched, featuring:
- Screen Tint: An accessibility feature that provides a system-wide color overlay to reduce eye strain, accessible through Settings > Accessibility > Vision > Screen Tint, offering six preset colors or custom hues.
- Low Latency Profile: Temporarily boosts processor frequency for 1 to 3 seconds during interactive tasks, improving application launch times by up to 40% and interaction times by as much as 70%, operating automatically without manual toggles.
- Widgets Experience Update: Widgets now open without hover activation, Taskbar badges are off by default, and alerts are limited until user interaction. The dashboard displays Widgets under "widgets," and badging aligns with the system accent color.
- Magnifier Enhancements: Users can input specific zoom percentages directly and access additional zoom presets ranging from 5% to 400%.
- File Explorer Changes: Improvements for compatibility, performance, and reliability, including support for paths with double backslashes and quotation marks, and middle-click support for opening folders in new tabs.
- Windows Update: Unification of drivers, .NET, and firmware updates with monthly quality updates, reducing required restarts to one per month.
- Windows Search Enhancements: Improved handling of typos, missing letters, and partial app names, prioritizing accurate search results even with input errors.
Windows enthusiasts aim to enhance system performance while managing heat and power consumption, especially in mobile PCs. Under-volting techniques are commonly used to optimize performance and reduce power consumption, with tools like AMD's Ryzen Master and Intel's XTU available for this purpose. Users can also adjust settings in the BIOS, such as Curve Optimizer for Ryzen processors.
Processor Power Management operates through the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI), which includes P-states for voltage-frequency scaling and C-states for CPU sleep states. Windows provides two default P-States: "Minimum Processor State" and "Maximum Processor State." A Registry modification can unlock additional options under a "Processor performance boost mode" dropdown, allowing for five distinct profiles:
1. Disabled: Disables processor boosting, reducing power consumption and heat but limiting performance.
2. Enabled: Allows boost functionality under normal conditions, balancing performance with power and thermal constraints.
3. Aggressive: Prioritizes performance, allowing higher boost states but increasing power draw and thermal output.
4. Efficient Enabled: Focuses on energy efficiency while allowing boosting.
5. Efficient Aggressive: Balances performance responsiveness with efficiency.
To enable the Processor performance boost mode, users must access the Registry Editor, navigate to a specific path, and modify the value of Attributes from 1 to 2. This will reveal the new "Processor performance boost mode" dropdown with the five P-State options.
The settings are summarized as follows:
- Disabled: P-state behavior is disabled.
- Enabled: P-state behavior is enabled with Efficient Enabled CPPC.
- Aggressive: P-state behavior is enabled with Aggressive CPPC.
- Efficient Enabled: Efficient P-state behavior with Efficient Enabled CPPC.
- Efficient Aggressive: Efficient P-state behavior with Aggressive CPPC.
- Aggressive At Guaranteed: Requests performance above the guaranteed level.
- Efficient Aggressive At Guaranteed: Consistently requests the highest performance above the guaranteed level.
Users should be cautious when modifying these settings, as issues may arise that require reverting to original settings.
Players of life simulation games have traditionally recreated their real-life homes in virtual worlds, often facing frustration with grid-based building systems. The launch of Paralives offers a gridless design and real-world measurements, allowing for a more authentic building experience. Players can import real-life blueprints and trace them in the game, with a mod that enables uploading a blueprint image onto a customizable rug to guide wall construction. To use this feature, players must download Bunny's Customizable Rug, save a floor plan image, and adjust the rug in Build Mode to match the blueprint's scale. While Paralives allows for accurate translations of blueprints, some scaling issues exist, such as showers being inaccurately represented as occupying 4 square feet, which complicates creating realistic bathroom layouts.
Microsoft is testing a new feature that allows developers to implement local language models on non-Copilot+ PCs running Windows 11. The Language Model APIs can now operate on any Windows 11 device with a compatible Nvidia GPU, specifically targeting GeForce RTX 30 series and newer models with at least 6 GB of video RAM. This initiative aims to democratize access to AI capabilities across a broader range of Windows 11 PCs, although not all PCs will gain access to exclusive Copilot+ AI functionalities.
Where Winds Meet, a free-to-play Wuxia open-world ARPG, is now available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, and cloud platforms. Since its launch last November, the game has attracted over 80 million players and has had two expansions. The game is set in 10th Century China and features six distinct regions for exploration. Players can customize their combat style with various weapons and martial arts skills, and take on roles such as a doctor or assassin. A new expansion, Hidden Mountain, was announced, introducing a mountainous region with new gameplay mechanics. The game supports Smart Delivery and is optimized for Xbox, featuring HDR support and upscaling for better visuals. Xbox Game Pass members can access the game and receive a starter pack of resources from June 7 to July 23.
pg_dump is a utility for exporting a PostgreSQL database into a file, which can be restored on the same or different servers. It exports a single database's tables, views, sequences, functions, indexes, triggers, and in-database grants but does not include roles, tablespaces, or server-level configurations. To capture global objects, pg_dumpall --globals-only should be executed prior to the per-database dump. pg_dump requires CONNECT and SELECT privileges on all tables and sequences within the target database, and a dedicated backup role is sufficient for single-database dumps, while superuser access is needed for global objects.
pg_dump supports various output formats: plain SQL (.sql), custom binary (.dump), directory of files, and tar archive (.tar), each with different capabilities for restoration and compression. The custom format allows for selective and parallel restoration. For non-interactive use, credentials can be stored in a .pgpass file or passed via the PGPASSWORD environment variable.
Restoration methods depend on the dump format: psql is used for plain SQL files, while pg_restore is used for custom and directory formats. The restoration process requires the target database to be created beforehand. Version mismatches between pg_dump and pg_restore can lead to failures, so it's essential to ensure that the binaries are version-matched.
In Docker, pg_dump and pg_restore can be executed within containers, but care must be taken to manage credentials and ensure version compatibility. Exit codes from pg_dump should be checked to confirm successful operations.
Microsoft announced the public preview of Azure HorizonDB, a fully managed PostgreSQL-compatible database designed for agentic AI workloads, during Microsoft Build 2026 in San Francisco. HorizonDB features a "database-as-logs" architecture, allowing for sub-millisecond multi-zone commit latency and independent scaling of compute and storage. It incorporates a Rust-based storage engine, native DiskANN vector search, and in-database AI model invocation. Additionally, Microsoft launched Web IQ, a web-grounding API layer integrated into Microsoft Copilot and OpenAI's ChatGPT, which provides passage-level structured evidence objects rather than full documents. Web IQ is model-agnostic and aims to enhance information density and reduce costs. Both services are currently in limited availability, with HorizonDB open for preview signups across five Azure regions.
