⚙️ How It Works

The Company Tech Stack Change Monitor accepts a company name to monitor for technology stack changes. It simultaneously queries tech news feeds and GitHub API with the company keyword combined with "tech stack" and "migration". For each news item and repository found, it extracts announcement details and technology information. Each item is analyzed to detect technology type, classify change type, assess impact, and calculate adoption velocity score. Results are deduplicated, sorted by impact or date, and pushed to the dataset. A completion summary is logged with statistics.

Key Processing Steps:

1. Input Parsing – Accept company name
2. Proxy Setup – Configure Apify residential proxy
3. Tech News Query – Search news feeds for tech changes
4. GitHub Query – Search repositories and API
5. News Parsing – Extract announcement information
6. Repository Analysis – Analyze technology stack
7. Technology Detection – Identify technologies mentioned
8. Change Classification – Classify type of change
9. Impact Assessment – Assess business/technical impact
10. Adoption Scoring – Calculate adoption velocity
11. Timeline Extraction – Identify adoption dates
12. URL Generation – Collect reference links
13. Deduplication – Remove duplicate reports
14. Sorting – Sort by impact (descending)
15. Dataset Push – Push unique changes in batch
16. Summary Logging – Report statistics

Key Benefits:

• Monitor Company Tech stack decisions
• Understand technology trends in industry
• Identify technology leadership
• Track competitive technology strategies
• Assess technology risks and opportunities
• Inform technology decisions
