We’re excited to share what’s new and improved in the v8.2 release of GitKraken Client. Even solo superheroes will benefit from Workspaces but we’ve made a lot of updates designed for Teams to get the most out of Git. So assemble your team and get ready to tackle even the largest projects in Git. Keep reading this article or watch the video below to see what’s new! We just can’t stop improving productivity with Git.

With all the hustle and bustle of hospitals, hard-working staff, and extensive cutting-edge equipment, we often forget about the invisible infrastructure that underpins our healthcare institutions. They all rely on the backbone of databases, and quick access to the data housed within them, to ensure systems at the front-end run seamlessly.

This post will be updated over the next several days. Recently, a Remote Code Execution vulnerability was discovered in the Apache Log4J library. This vulnerability, which is tracked in CVE-2021-44228, dubbed Log4Shell, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems. While HAProxy Enterprise, HAProxy ALOHA, and other products within the HAProxy Technologies portfolio are not impacted by this (they do not use the Log4J library at all), you can use them to block the attack.

Modern applications come in a variety of forms–monoliths, microservices, serverless functions, and containers to name a few–but at the heart of all of these are processes. Processes are the fundamental unit of execution that we use to run programs, and although we need processes to run our applications, software engineers rarely think about them.

Last Thursday, a researcher from the Alibaba Cloud Security Team dropped a zero-day remote code execution exploit on Twitter, targeting the extremely popular log4j logging framework for Java (specifically, the 2.x branch called Log4j2). The vulnerability was originally discovered and reported to Apache by the Alibaba cloud security team on November 24th. MITRE assigned CVE-2021-44228 to this vulnerability, which has since been dubbed Log4Shell by security researchers.

So you’ve heard of Kubernetes, and you’ve decided it’s time to dive into what everyone’s talking about. Or maybe you’ve worked with it a little, but you’d like to level up.

Learning how to fly. Again. Because certain technologies and processes can always be optimized. Take laptops, for instance (I always wanted to become a laptop designer!). From foldable screens to computers that incorporate e-readers, we are always pushing for new designs that address ergonomic requirements but also improve the way we work. We are doing the same with drones. This month features innovations that dare to challenge the status quo of how we fly.

Today, hundreds, if not thousands, of businesses globally outsource their software development projects for various reasons. In 2022, Gartner predicts that global IT outsourcing linked to remote work will reach $456 billion, a jump of 6.8% from 2020. The cost of developing a digital product with an outsourced team may appear to be much cheaper than with an in-house team.

What a year 2021 has been for us all. We are extremely proud of the continuous innovation and delivery of new features and functionality we have provided throughout the year, all while maintaining enterprise scale and uptime that could win awards. We’ve heard success story after success story from our brilliant customers, each unique in their own way. We couldn’t have had the successful year we’ve had without you, and it’s been our honor to be part of your success.
