[Denver, August 2, 2023] — HarperDB, a trailblazing force in the development technology arena, proudly announces the debut of the HarperDB Dev Center. This resource hub is set to empower developers and enterprises alike, providing them with the tools and knowledge to unleash the full potential of HarperDB and build exceptional applications with unparalleled ease.

The HarperDB Dev Center launches with 70 tutorials, allowing developers to dive right into their projects. Over time, the center will continue to expand with new tutorials added every week, ensuring that HarperDB’s groundbreaking technology becomes even more accessible. These tutorials span over 60 technologies, encompassing 28 development topics, and supporting over 15 languages. No matter the development scenario, HarperDB has the answer.

Aleks Haugom, Head of GTM Strategy at HarperDB, shares his insights, "One of the biggest challenges of selling HarperDB is convincing people just how simple enterprise development can be. Most developers have an expectation of complexity, especially for applications at scale. For decades the norm has been integrating multiple technologies like databases, application servers, and data streaming technologies to create complex stacks. HarperDB represents a fundamental shift in how we all build applications, merging these various technologies at the system level to make delivering high-performance apps easy."

By merging multiple technologies, HarperDB empowers developers to focus on the creative aspect of application building without being bogged down by intricate technology integrations and maintenance. This fundamental shift in approach sets HarperDB apart and enables developers to deliver top-tier, high-performance applications like never before.

HarperDB believes that anything can be built better with its revolutionary Unified Backend technology. With the Dev Center, HarperDB is determined to equip developers worldwide with the tools and knowledge they need to drive innovation and create extraordinary experiences.

The HarperDB Dev Center is now live and accessible to all developers. To experience the power of simplicity firsthand and embark on a journey of exceptional enterprise development, visit www.harperdb.io/development today!

About HarperDB

HarperDB is a globally-distributed edge application platform. It reduces complexity, increases performance, and lowers costs by combining user-defined applications, a high-performance database, and an enterprise-grade message queue into a single package. The platform offers unlimited horizontal scale at the click of a button, and synchronizes data across all the nodes in a cluster in milliseconds. HarperDB simplifies the process of delivering applications and the data that drives them to the edge, which dramatically improves both the user experience and total cost of ownership for large-scale applications. Deploying HarperDB on global infrastructure enables a CDN-like solution for enterprise data and applications.

5 Architectures for Web Personalization

Personalization is a data-delivery problem. Every architectural choice reduces to two distances: compute to user, and compute to fresh data. This piece maps five real architectures against both axes, scored on a concrete retailer workload where stale or slow data breaks the business.

Agentic Engineering Needs an Opinion: Why Scale Starts with Architecture

AI coding works in a sandbox because the environment is trivially narrow. Real systems have history, constraints, and blast radius. Coding agents make sound decisions only when the architecture is explicit and shared. Opinion isn't a constraint on agentic engineering, it's what makes it possible at scale.

Building a Cozy Sandbox Game on Harper

A nature-restoration game with six biomes, 150 animals, and a real food web — built with a single Harper component as the entire backend. One YAML file wires the database, API, content seeder, and static host. The same binary ships offline on itch.io.

Your Website was Built for Humans. AI Needs Something Cleaner.

The web spent a decade optimizing for browsers. JavaScript-heavy rendering, dynamic CMS templates, and client-side hydration made pages beautiful and machines blind. AI answer engines retrieve, parse, and cite content directly. If your best content is trapped behind a render cycle, a cleaner source wins.
