Top DevOps Experts offer Key Insights at swampUP

With five keynotes and 15 breakout sessions in one day, there was no shortage of important industry knowledge and key insights from this year’s JFrog swampUP DevOps and DevSecOps user conference. Presenters discussed the role of DevOps at Netflix, how Fidelity migrated to the Cloud, the trend of shifting further left than left, and more. In this post we highlight the three presentations below that challenged attendees to rethink the status quo and reassess their own DevOps and security practices.

Kubernetes Autoscaling for Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment

Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), the ability to adapt swiftly to fluctuating workloads is paramount. Kubernetes, with its dynamic orchestration capabilities, offers an invaluable toolset for achieving seamless scalability. This article explores the concept of Kubernetes autoscaling and its pivotal role in optimising CI/CD pipelines.

An update on CircleCI's reliability

This month, we’re focused on sharing a more comprehensive picture of our reliability and availability. We experienced 6 extended incidents, 2 of which were due to an upstream third party. While we always want to be transparent with our performance against our stated goals, it’s crucial to note that, while they lasted 60 minutes or longer, the impact of these August incidents on our business operations was relatively minimal.

How to SSH into Docker containers

A Docker container is a portable software package that holds an application’s code, necessary dependencies, and environment settings in a lightweight, standalone, and easily runnable form. When running an application in Docker, you might need to perform some analysis or troubleshooting to diagnose and fix errors. Rather than recreating the environment and testing it separately, it is often easier to SSH into the Docker container to check on its health.

Unlocking Kubernetes Deployment Excellence with CI CD Automation

Software development, agility and efficiency are paramount. Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) practices have revolutionised the way we build, test, and deploy software. When coupled with the power of Kubernetes, an open-source container orchestration platform, organisations can achieve a level of deployment excellence that was once only a dream.

State of DevOps: Takeaways on the 2023 DORA Report

It's that time of year! The 2023 Accelerate State of DevOps Report is about to be released, so we're teaming up with DORA and Google Cloud to give you the lowdown on key findings. Join us October 19 at 9 a.m. PT / Noon ET to hear straight from DORA researcher Eric Maxwell about: Give Sleuth a try and see how we empower software teams to build faster by making engineering efficiency easy to improve and measurable — in a way that both managers and developers love.

AI adoption for software: a guide to learning, tool selection, and delivery

This post was written with valuable contributions from Michael Webster, Kira Muhlbauer, Tim Cheung, and Ryan Hamilton. Remember the advent of the internet in the 90s? Mobile in the 2010s? Both seemed overhyped at the start, yet in each case, fast-moving, smart teams were able to take these new technologies at their nascent stage and experiment to transform their businesses. This is the moment we’re in with artificial intelligence. The technology is here.

Merging to Main #7: Scaling CI/CD Across Languages & Technologies

Language specific companies used to be the norm because of the complexities of switching programming languages between projects and toolsets. In the last decade the entire market has shifted towards “use the best language for the job” which means achieving efficient Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) needs to be more than just language agnostic, it needs to be language empowering.
