Most cloud waste isn’t technical, it’s organizational. Harness brings finance and engineering together with FinOps practices that connect spend to outcomes, not blame. The result: 30%+ savings and alignment that scales. In too many cloud organizations, finance and engineering operate like two planets in orbit. Finance speaks in forecasts, budgets, billing codes. Engineering speaks in uptime, latency, error rates. The result?

AI-powered coding alone isn’t enough. True software delivery velocity requires end-to-end automation and intelligent governance across the entire lifecycle. Harness enables organizations to escape the AI Velocity Paradox by unifying speed, safety, and resilience, turning rapid development into a sustainable competitive advantage. The widespread adoption of AI coding assistants is transforming software engineering.

The integration of Amazon Kiro and Harness’s MCP server enables developers to manage, troubleshoot, and optimize CI/CD pipelines directly from their IDE using natural language, dramatically reducing manual effort and accelerating software delivery from code generation to production.

Harness acquires Qwiet AI to power application security in the AI era, embedding reachability analysis to cut noise and prioritize real risks. By Sanjay Nagaraj, SVP Global Engineering, Harness; Co-founder and CTO, Traceable by Harness Today, I am excited to share that Harness has acquired Qwiet AI (formerly ShiftLeft), a leader in agentic AI-powered vulnerability detection and reachability analysis.

The Harness MCP Server integration with Cursor transforms chaos engineering from a complex, specialized discipline into an accessible, conversational workflow that any developer can leverage directly within their AI-powered IDE. By combining natural language prompts with comprehensive resilience testing tools, teams can discover, execute, and analyze chaos experiments without vendor-specific expertise, democratizing system reliability across DevOps, QA, and SRE functions.

Harness GitOps extends Argo CD by preserving its reconciliation loop while adding governance, audit, and RBAC through the GitOps Agent’s secure connection to Harness SaaS. Teams can choose Harness-managed or bring-your-own Argo CD and scale to multi-cluster fleets with unified dashboards, promotion pipelines, and true rollback, while Git stays the single source of truth.

Harness has been recognized as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for DevOps Platforms for the second consecutive year. To us, this recognition acknowledges our solutions and capabilities that we offer. . Harness continues to support the full software delivery lifecycle and remains focused on expanding capabilities and improving adoption across industries.

Progressive Delivery strategies like Blue/Green deployments, canary releases, feature flag rollouts, and feature delivery platforms help teams release safely, limit risk, and accelerate learning. Each approach builds toward sustainable, high-velocity software delivery by minimizing downtime and maximizing feedback. Combining these methods enables faster innovation with greater confidence and control. Last week we walked The Path To Progressive Delivery. This week, we go deeper.
