What is Feedly?

Feedly's reader roots recede as threat-intel agents take over the changelog

Feedly's changelog is now almost entirely a cyber threat intelligence product log. The last three months added models tuned for insider threats and threat actor campaigns, Suricata rule extraction, SPL queries alongside KQL, GreyNoise and VirusTotal enrichment, and a Vulnerability Agent. The August release extends Custom Intel Agents with Analyze and Research actions and adds a Censys lookup to IP cards.

What is Marquez?

Marquez spent 2024 turning a lineage store into a UI, then stopped releasing

Marquez is the reference metadata server for OpenLineage, and this window captures a concentrated push on its web interface: a column-lineage page and redesigned lineage graph in 0.45.0, data quality and job status displays in 0.47.0, and a data observability dashboard in 0.50.0 showing event stats over 24-hour and 7-day windows with per-source, per-dataset and per-job views. The API side moved in step — job tagging, dataset schema versions, paging on jobs and dataset versions, job-to-job lineage, richer metrics labels. One contributor accounts for nearly all the web work in these entries. Note that the 0.45 through 0.49 releases were all stamped within three minutes of each other and in reverse version order, so publication timestamps here do not reflect release order.

Feedly's reader roots recede as threat-intel agents take over the changelog

◆ Current state

Feedly's changelog is now almost entirely a cyber threat intelligence product log. The last three months added models tuned for insider threats and threat actor campaigns, Suricata rule extraction, SPL queries alongside KQL, GreyNoise and VirusTotal enrichment, and a Vulnerability Agent. The August release extends Custom Intel Agents with Analyze and Research actions and adds a Censys lookup to IP cards.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc runs from retrieval toward analysis: earlier releases broadened what Feedly could collect, recent ones give analysts agents that reason over it and emit artifacts their existing tools accept. Report Builder citations that trace a claim to its source passage target the trust problem gating generated intelligence in a SOC. Coverage has become table stakes; the contest is over whether analysts accept the machine's conclusions.

◆ Prediction

Expect the agent surface to keep gaining verbs rather than new data sources, with more export formats aimed at the SIEM and detection tooling analysts already run.

Marquez spent 2024 turning a lineage store into a UI, then stopped releasing

◆ Current state

Marquez is the reference metadata server for OpenLineage, and this window captures a concentrated push on its web interface: a column-lineage page and redesigned lineage graph in 0.45.0, data quality and job status displays in 0.47.0, and a data observability dashboard in 0.50.0 showing event stats over 24-hour and 7-day windows with per-source, per-dataset and per-job views. The API side moved in step — job tagging, dataset schema versions, paging on jobs and dataset versions, job-to-job lineage, richer metrics labels. One contributor accounts for nearly all the web work in these entries. Note that the 0.45 through 0.49 releases were all stamped within three minutes of each other and in reverse version order, so publication timestamps here do not reflect release order.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc is a backend project growing a front end: lineage data that existed in the API was progressively given pages, panels and paging, and by 0.50.0 the framing had shifted from lineage graph to observability dashboard. Tagging deepened in the same period, moving from dataset tags to field-level tags to job tags. That arc stops abruptly — 0.50.0 in October 2024 is the last entry, with nothing published in the roughly two years since.

◆ Prediction

The entries give no roadmap signal past 0.50.0, and the job-to-job lineage change was explicitly framed as a prompt for a wider parent/child hierarchy discussion that no later release picks up, so that hierarchy work is best read as unfinished rather than planned.
