We can all agree that visibility into resource usage is crucial for optimizing performance and managing costs to drive your business — especially in today’s cloud-driven world. MyJFrog is a comprehensive management portal for overseeing JFrog cloud platform instances and subscriptions. It provides a centralized control tower to manage and monitor subscriptions, resources, and usage.

I think we can all agree that, in general, different users have different needs. For instance, we’ve found that developers generally use Artifactory to find, select, and then install packages into their development environment, while administrators tend to use Artifactory for troubleshooting, confirming package operations, and other related analyses.

swampUP 2024, the annual JFrog DevOps Conference, was unique in it’s addressing not only more familiar DevOps and DevSecOps issues, but adding specific operational challenges, stemming from the explosive growth of GenAI and the resulting need for specialized capabilities for handling AI models and datasets, while supporting new personae such as AI/ML engineers, data scientists and MLOps professionals.

JFrog has long supported standards widely used by developers, including OCI container images. We started with our OCI-compliant Docker registry, then followed up with dedicated JFrog Artifactory OCI repositories. In our continued commitment to developer freedom of choice, we’re excited to take another leap forward. JFrog is now fully conformant to OCI v1.1.

The AI revolution is transforming enterprises faster than you can say, “sudo apt-get install skynet.” According to McKinsey, 65% of organizations now regularly use generative AI, nearly doubling from last year. However, as developers rush to integrate AI into their products, the shift from AI proof-of-concept to production can feel like trying to assemble flat-box furniture in a hurricane.

In the fast-paced, ever-evolving world of software development, the ability to seamlessly migrate and manage workloads on the cloud is a game changer. At JFrog, we’re committed to empowering organizations to achieve their DevOps, DevSecOps, and MLOps goals with speed, security, and efficiency. Migrating these workloads to the cloud offers numerous advantages, including increased scalability, cost efficiency, and improved agility.

The software development industry reacted with excitement to the news about the partnership between JFrog and GitHub and its potential impact on software development operations as covered in our recent webinar.

If you work with virtual machines or install and configure software on EC2 or leverage dynamic runtimes, chances are you’re also using Ansible. In fact, JFrog has supported installation via Ansible for some time. If they’re not using Red Hat, the way most organizations have managed their Ansible Collections – including Roles – is by storing them in Git repositories.

When working with ML models, it’s fair to say that a model is only as good as the data it was trained on. Training and testing models on quality datasets of an appropriate size is essential for model performance. Because of the intricate link between a model and the data it was trained on, it’s also important to be able to store datasets and versioned models together.

In our previous blog post, we explored JFrog Workers, a JFrog Cloud Platform service that allows you to create customized workers that can respond to events in the platform. These workers can perform various tasks, from running code to adjusting functions, giving you more flexibility and control over your workflows. Allowing you to automate processes and streamline your development pipeline in a serverless execution environment.
