Godoc in GoCenter Tells A Go Module's Story

Using an open-source Go module from the community of other developers can be like going on a blind date. That “getting to know you” phase that can be awkward and risky. The more you know in advance, the better off you’ll be, right? When using software, having accurate and precise documentation is one of the most important aspects.

Speeding up Bitbucket Cloud with AWS Global Accelerator - and adding some new IP ranges

We're happy to announce that on September 15th, 2020, we will begin gradually enabling a new traffic acceleration improvement for all Bitbucket Cloud users (Free, Standard, and Premium) when accessing Bitbucket.org for Web- or Git-based (ssh/https) operations. This new improvement leverages AWS Global Accelerator to route traffic to and from Bitbucket Cloud via 83 Points of Presence in 73 cities across 38 countries, potentially dramatically speeding up transaction times.

Automatic Merging When Builds Pass

Deployment Tracking Is Critical for Software Teams. Here's Why.

In order to have the most successful deployment, there are a few best practices that software development teams should be mindful of. First, following a continuous delivery approach allows software development teams to release in shorter cycles, so that building, testing, and releasing can be done with greater speed and reduced error rates. As stated in an earlier post of ours, you’re doing continuous delivery when: Your software is deployable throughout its lifecycle.
