What is Feedly?

Feedly has become a threat-intel platform where AI agents, not feeds, do the reading.

Feedly now ships on a two-week cadence almost entirely against its Threat Intelligence product. The surface is a family of AI agents — Custom Intel Agents, Cyberattack Agent, Vulnerability Agent, plus tuned models for insider threats and threat-actor campaigns — wrapped in Insight Cards that carry CVE, IoC and detection-rule context. Report Builder and newsletters are the output layer; the RSS reader heritage barely appears in the changelog anymore.

What is OpenHouse?

OpenHouse breaks ground on Iceberg views while tightening storage lifecycle and authorization

OpenHouse (LinkedIn's managed Iceberg tables service) is shipping at a rapid v0.5.x pace with multiple improvements per week. Recent work spans three areas: storage lifecycle management (native snapshot expiration with reference age defaults, orphan file reclamation), authorization hardening (routing RTAS operations through proper table privilege checks), and the first scaffolding for Iceberg view support (entityType discriminator, table-scoped HTS queries).

Feedly has become a threat-intel platform where AI agents, not feeds, do the reading.

◆ Current state

Feedly now ships on a two-week cadence almost entirely against its Threat Intelligence product. The surface is a family of AI agents — Custom Intel Agents, Cyberattack Agent, Vulnerability Agent, plus tuned models for insider threats and threat-actor campaigns — wrapped in Insight Cards that carry CVE, IoC and detection-rule context. Report Builder and newsletters are the output layer; the RSS reader heritage barely appears in the changelog anymore.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run through every release. First, agents are being fleshed out into complete workflow objects: they gained Ask AI Analyze and Research actions, then table controls, then alerting. Second, Feedly is closing the trust gap that AI-generated intel opens — MITRE ATT&CK tagging accuracy, exploit confidence and evidence on CVE cards, and Report Builder citations that resolve to the source passage. The integrations (Censys, GreyNoise, VirusTotal, Analyst1, SPL alongside KQL) point at fitting into SOC tooling rather than replacing it.

◆ Prediction

Expect the alerting added to Custom Intel Agents to spread to the other agents, and continued query-language and enrichment coverage aimed at existing SIEM workflows. Whether the Ask AI Research Playground becomes a real self-serve entry point or stays an evaluation demo is not readable from these entries.

OpenHouse breaks ground on Iceberg views while tightening storage lifecycle and authorization

◆ Current state

OpenHouse (LinkedIn's managed Iceberg tables service) is shipping at a rapid v0.5.x pace with multiple improvements per week. Recent work spans three areas: storage lifecycle management (native snapshot expiration with reference age defaults, orphan file reclamation), authorization hardening (routing RTAS operations through proper table privilege checks), and the first scaffolding for Iceberg view support (entityType discriminator, table-scoped HTS queries).

◆ Where it's heading

The entityType discriminator in v0.5.490 is the most directional move in this window — it creates the data model prerequisite for treating views as first-class entities alongside tables, something OpenHouse has not supported. Storage lifecycle work is converging on Iceberg-native mechanisms, reducing custom expiration logic. The post-commit operations framework in v0.5.492 is infrastructure that will allow OpenHouse to add downstream hooks (compaction triggers, notifications) without catalog coupling.

◆ Prediction

Iceberg view read support will arrive in the next several releases, building on the discriminator and HTS scaffolding now in place. The authorization model for views will be an open question — watch whether they reuse the table ACL path or introduce a parallel model.
