For a complete JFrog DevOps SaaS solution hosted on Azure, the puzzle is now complete. JFrog DevOps Pipelines CI/CD is now available for all JFrog Cloud plan levels hosted on the Microsoft Azure cloud service. With Pipelines automation, now all the key elements of the JFrog DevOps Platform can be hosted on Azure as a SaaS subscription. That includes the Artifactory universal binary repository manager, and Xray software component analysis.

In this article, I’m trying to shine some light on the AWS Lambda Layers, Lambda Extensions, and Docker image for Lambda, in order to add third-party code to Lambda. When and how to use which method, and when to mix and match? Due to the circumstances in 2020, many software releases were postponed, and so the industry slowed its development speed quite a bit. But at least at AWS, some teams got updates out of the door at the end of the year. AWS Lambda got two significant improvements.

Last week my colleague, Clay Ryder, and I presented a webinar, titled No! The cloud is not someone else’s data center, in which we examined how companies can reduce the complexity of a cloud migration and accelerate the benefits of digital transformation. It’s an important topic, so as a follow-up to the session, I’ve summarized five key things you need to understand to be successful in the cloud. If you missed the session, you can listen to the full discussion at the link above.

Context is king, they say, and anything you can do to improve context both makes decisions and assessments more reliable and speeds up the decision process. A new, bi-directional integration between Moogsoft Observability Cloud and Datadog does just that. Many SRE teams rely on Datadog to provide comprehensive information about their application stacks.

In this article, we will build a CI/CD pipeline with the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) and debug a test it using Dashbird’s observability tool. In 2021, continuous integration and continuous delivery, or short CI/CD, should be part of every modern software development process. It helps deliver new features and bug fixes much faster.

Misconfigured resources are a big contributor to compromised cloud security. If you have misconfigured Amazon S3 buckets, for example, malicious actors could access your data, then inappropriately or illegally distribute this private information, putting your company’s security at risk. Policies and regular best practices enforcement are key to reducing this security risk.
