Unified JFrog Log Analytics With Splunk

We work best by coming together. That’s why we built the JFrog DevOps Platform, bringing together our set of solutions to operate as a single, unified user experience. That unity powered by Artifactory 7 helps bring total understanding and control of your software build pipelines. To keep it running, you also need a unified, real-time view of the entire platform’s operation.

ZFS focus on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: what's new?

Ubuntu has supported ZFS as an option for some time. In 19.10, we introduced experimental support on the desktop. As explained, having a ZFS on root option on our desktop was only a first step in what we want to achieve by adopting this combined file system and logical volume manager. I strongly suggest you read the 2 blog posts, linked above, as introductions to this blog series we are starting. Here we cover what’s new compared to 19.10 in term of installation and general features.

Kubernetes for Data Science: meet Kubeflow

Data science has exploded as a practice in the past decade and has become an undisputed driver of innovation. The forcing factors behind the rising interest in Machine Learning, a not so new concept, have consolidated and created an unparalleled capacity for Deep Learning, a subset of Artificial Neural Networks with many “hidden layers”, to thrive in the years to come.

Introducing Blameless Service Level Objectives

Over a year ago, Blameless launched the industry’s first end-to-end SRE platform to help software teams innovate without sacrificing reliability. As Service Level Objectives (SLOs) provide an anchor for reliability targets and corresponding decisions, they are the foundational step toward helping teams truly adopt SRE best practices. Today, we are very excited to announce our new SLO platform, giving teams a shared language on how to focus their engineering efforts.

Schedule Security Scans in Rancher 2.4

Rancher 2.4, the latest release of Rancher’s Kubernetes management platform, includes a new CIS security scanning feature. The Center for Internet Security publishes more than 100 benchmarks for Kubernetes, which are considered the default standard benchmark for defining security of Kubernetes clusters. With Rancher 2.4, CIS scanning is an integrated part of the Rancher UI itself for RKE clusters. If you create or import any RKE cluster via Rancher, CIS Scan will work flawlessly.

Introduction to Site Reliability Engineering

In this session, we start with the basics of SRE, including some common terminology and theory, then dive into practical examples—including lessons learned from our own journey here at Datadog. We discuss the relationship between SRE and DevOps, what success looks like (and how to measure it), and how to identify and nurture both internal and external talent in order to build a cross-functional team. SRE is a large, complex topic, so the session ends with a live Q&A and deep-dive into some great topics.

Are speed and security mutually exclusive?

Here’s a situation that is likely familiar to you if you work in enterprise IT. The need for strong security practices is more pressing than ever, with known vulnerabilities growing exponentially, and nearly half of companies having experienced a data breach in the last two years. At the same time, organizations face demands to deploy software faster, and more frequently. IT executives consistently identify cybersecurity and speed among their top priorities.

JFrog & Pure Storage - Simplify and Accelerate Artifactory Repositories

Modern software development is getting bigger with a high volume of large binaries and various artifact versions that are shared across many data pipelines. Universal binary package managers, like JFrog Artifactory, integrate with various workflows in the software development lifecycle on Pure Storage - FlashBlade for scalable performance, cost efficiency, and manageability.
