“What’s really running in prod?” Every engineer will hear these immortal words on a long enough timeline (or career). It might be because a new security zero day was dropped, alerts fired from the depths of a vast microservice architecture, or you might just be looking to know what commit was actually tested. Either way, it often comes with the promise of a stressful day.

With software delivery, speed is everything. But how do you balance rapid delivery with quality, security, and compliance? To answer this question, let’s embark on a journey - one that starts in a software factory to running on the production superhighway.

Like many software teams, here at Kosli we use a continuous delivery approach. This means that every commit to our trunk is automatically built, tested, and deployed to our production-like staging environment. This provides us with the confidence that every build is potentially deployable to production. We use our staging environment to perform final exploratory testing before we deploy to production. Deployments to production are “on-demand”.

Let’s face it: software dependencies are a reality of modern IT environments. Every application relies on other components to work seamlessly, but keeping track of these dependencies can quickly become complex. When they’re managed well, dependencies support smooth operations and keep everything running as expected. But when left unchecked? They can lead to compatibility issues, security risks, and a lot of headaches.

Keeping track of software licenses, usage, and compliance has become vital for businesses of all sizes. Software Asset Management (SAM) tools play a crucial role in ensuring that organizations stay on top of their software assets and avoid overspending or non-compliance penalties.

In modern, distributed applications, shared standards for performance and reliability are key to maintaining a healthy production environment and providing a dependable user experience. But establishing and maintaining these standards at scale can be a challenge: when you have hundreds or thousands of services overseen by a wide range of teams, there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. How do you determine effective best practices in such a complex environment?
