How do you migrate 160+ MySQL clusters… without 💥 downtime, rollback, or human intervention? At Wix, this meant moving 1,000+ production DB servers to Graviton: Active-passive clusters and cross-region replication. Meaning: 🚩 zero margin for error. So we didn’t scale people - we scaled the process: ⚡ Fully automated workflows 🩺 Built-in health checks ⏩ "No rollback" - only fix forward The result: ✅ 15% lower costs ✅ 50% less CPU ✅ Finished 3× faster than planned This isn’t a migration story. It’s what happens when infra becomes a platform. Read the full story by Shmuel Mekonen: wix.engineering/post/1-000-ser…

.@Asafy3: "AI in organizations isn’t a tech upgrade - it’s a new operating system for how work gets done, decisions are made, and products are built. Teams that treat it as just another tool - will fall 🚩 behind. Those that redesign workflows, culture, and infrastructure around it - unlock real speed, quality, and leverage. Every step forward in AI capability demands a step forward in how we operate. Tech moves - the organization has to move with it. Again and again. We felt it once the tech matured - that’s when we made the shift to #xEngineer. Not as a concept, but as an operating change to match the new reality."

Software engineering is changing fast ⚡ With tools like Claude Code, Codex and Cursor, writing code itself is starting to become a commodity. The real value of engineers is shifting somewhere else. In our new post, Yaniv Even Haim, @aviranm and @Asafy3 explore the "#xEngineer" - a new concept emerging at @Wix that shifts the focus from syntax to defining problems, designing systems, and orchestrating AI tools. You’ll learn why and how: * AI 🚀 is reshaping the entire engineering lifecycle * Engineers 🧠 will increasingly own problems end-to-end * Traditional org boundaries (frontend, backend, mobile) are starting to blur * The future developer looks more like an architect 📐 or director than a code writer If you want to understand where software engineering is heading in the AI era - read here: wix.engineering/post/the-xengi…

"Let’s start with the obvious question: in a world of YouTube summaries, podcast recaps, and AI-generated TLDRs - why bother reading 📚 books?" That’s the question @NirOrman asks in her new article. From there, she shares and explains how reading shaped her journey as a developer, manager, and leader - and why books remain one of the most powerful tools for learning and leadership. Read her post to learn: ✅ Why books still matter in the age of summaries and AI ✅ The leadership ideas she took from books like Atomic Habits, Multipliers, and Never Split the Difference ✅ How engineering leaders can build a culture of reading and continuous learning inside their teams Read here: medium.com/wix-engineerin…

Most teams use AI to write ✍ code. @LiorAltarescu used it to manage the team. He turned Claude Code into a management platform that reviews PRs, creates tickets, investigates production issues, and researches features. 🔷 The result? Hours of work compressed into minutes. A fascinating glimpse into AI-augmented engineering leadership. Read the full story: medium.com/wix-engineerin…

Most AI coding benchmarks are meaningless. So @yoavabrahami ran a real one: Claude Code vs Cursor on a complex framework task. SSR. Hydration. Nested components. Real technical debt. The kind of problems that usually break LLMs. The outcome exposed two very different AI personalities: * Claude: the bulldozer 🏗️ * Cursor: the architect 📐 And the real winning workflow might actually be using them together: Let Claude do the grinding - pushing through implementation and fixing bugs - while Cursor plays the architect, stepping in to challenge the design, spot the blind spots, and stop you before you ship a beautifully implemented mistake.

Wix Engineering@WixEng

Listen to @yoavabrahami who warns: “Prompting doesn’t scale”. As projects grow, prompts collapse under their own weight. Context disappears. Architecture drifts. The real shift isn’t Prompt Engineering - It’s Context Engineering. ❌ Stop trying to write the perfect prompt. ✅ Start writing the history of your system. That’s what Design Logs do.

It's so fascinating - and quite a unique opportunity - to see up close such a fundamental change in MO, like sitting in on a modernization of a super complex factory

Wix Engineering@WixEng

There are no more 🛑 "repo territories" at Wix Engineering - our engineers are no longer limited by specific repositories. As part of our xEngineer transformation, we’re reshaping engineering ownership at Wix - and raising the bar. 🚀 @Wix is a complex system with over 4,000 microservices across over 40 different product lines. While domain boundaries are an inherent part of our structure, we’re eliminating boundary-driven thinking and expecting developers to contribute across teams - and openly accept contributions into their own codebases. 🔹 Why? Because AI removes the hurdle of switching lanes. Deeper code understanding and faster reviews shift the focus from guarding boundaries to removing friction. Being an xEngineer means you are accountable for impact, not territory. Engineering is evolving. Ownership is evolving with it.

We just hit $100M in ARR, in 9 months. Watching @MS_BASE44 and the @Base44 team build something this real, this fast, and still keep raising the bar is honestly very cool and this is only the beginning.

Maor Shlomo@MS_BASE44

I can finally share that base44 passed $100M ARR, and is growing faster than ever. This makes us one of the fastest companies to do so. Definitely the fastest without VC backing :) I'm taking some time to digest. This milestone is surprisingly emotional for me, to be honest. Maybe it's just reflecting on how crazy this past year has been. I'll probably post some stuff i've learned from powering through it. But for now - I want to thank our users, for trusting us to turn their wildest ideas into reality. For building their businesses on our platform. And for pushing us to be a better product every day. Base has by far the wildest, most valuable community in this market, and it’s not even close. And lastly, It's hard to state how much I'm grateful for the Base44 team. Thank you for being there with me, in the trenches, on this generational run. You're the most talented, hard working, sometimes funny people I've worked with. ------ 5 million users later, It's still day 1 for base44

AI is no longer a sidekick to engineering - it's reshaping the org chart, the data stack, and even how we remove friction. In our new Wix Engineering newsletter (Issue 84), we explore what engineering excellence looks like when AI moves from experimentation to execution: ⚡ Engineering Excellence in 2026 "Speed is one of our prime directives for 2026". @Wix CTO Yaniv Even-Haim isn't just talking about faster code. As AI accelerates development, bottlenecks shift elsewhere. The solution? A Slack command to surface blockers in real time - with leadership reviewing patterns and actively removing friction. 🚀 From Guild Silos to xEngineers At Wix, we’re unifying Frontend, Backend, and Mobile under a single Engineering Guild - and introducing the xEngineer. In this kickoff post, @aviranm shares why the AI era demands engineers who own architecture, system design, and delivery end-to-end - while AI handles more of the syntax. 🧊 Data-to-Production: From Iceberg to Live Microservices Petabytes in S3. Billions of rows. Sub-second latency. The challenge isn’t storing data - it’s activating it. Almog Gelber dives deep into how we built a platform that ingests massive Iceberg datasets into ClickHouse, survives schema evolution, and exposes a semantic, type-safe query layer - powering real-time product experiences instead of static dashboards. 🧠 Insights We Liked * Why quantum computing may still be decades away from real advantage / @DZoneInc * Anthropic’s study on AI coding assistants and skill mastery (-17%) / @SteefJan, @InfoQ * MCP's steep road from demo hype to production reality / @DavidJEastman1, @thenewstack * A practical workflow for generating presentations with AI / Elena Kravchenko * "Stop Prompting, Start Managing" - turning agents into disciplined engineering partners / Israel Zablianov Read it 👇 here: wix.engineering/so/f6PoOvEE2

I approve this message 😉

Wix Engineering@WixEng

.@aviranm, @Wix's VP Engineering: "In the AI-native era, engineering is no longer about mastering frameworks - it's about owning the outcome. When AI writes the code, engineers are free to focus on architecture, quality, security, and scale. That's not automation. That's elevation. 👉 If you're a developer, prepare accordingly: sharpen your system design thinking, deepen your architectural understanding, learn to orchestrate AI deliberately - and start measuring yourself not by lines of code, but by the outcomes you own."
