XR, AR and VR in 2026: the honest state after the cycle

After the 2023-2024 hype cycle led by Apple Vision Pro, the 2025 valley of disillusionment, and the quiet but real consolidation of Meta Quest 3S and the WebXR stack, it is time to assess honestly where extended reality stands. What works, what has died, what is still alive.

WASI preview 3: adoption and real cases

WASI preview 3 llegó como estándar estable a finales de 2025 y ha tenido unos meses para demostrar si realmente desbloquea los casos que preview 2 se quedaba cortos. Recorrido honesto por adopciones reales, bibliotecas maduras y patrones que empiezan a funcionar en producción.

gVisor: sandboxing for multi-tenant containers

gVisor interpone un kernel en espacio de usuario entre el contenedor y el anfitrión. Después de años en producción en Google y adopción creciente en plataformas serverless, merece una lectura honesta sobre cuándo compensa frente a microVMs y runtimes clásicos.

Carbon-aware computing: now the default behavior

Four years ago it was an academic curiosity. Today, scheduling workloads by grid carbon intensity is a built-in option in Kubernetes, in several cloud provider services, and in CI tooling. We look at what genuinely changed and what is still more promise than practice.

Private 5G networks: enterprise deployments in 2025

After years of pilots, private 5G is starting to show up in plants, ports, and warehouses with cases that actually work. What changed in 2025, which deployments make sense, and where WiFi 6E or a wired network still win the comparison.

Continuous profiling with eBPF in production

Continuous profiling with eBPF samples every process's execution stack every few milliseconds without touching the code, then stores the history so you can compare last week's performance with today's. The cost measured in production runs between 1% and 3% of CPU, and it pays off most in databases, API gateways and high-concurrency services.

VEX: filtering vulnerability noise with context

Después de años acumulando SBOMs, el cuello de botella es filtrar qué CVEs afectan de verdad. VEX aparece como la pieza que convierte el ruido en señal, y en 2025 empieza a tener adopción real en pipelines de supply chain.
