A CI/CD pipeline is the most fundamental component of automated software development. While the term has been used to describe many different aspects of computer science, at CircleCI, and within much of the DevOps industry, we use “pipeline” to illustrate the broad applications of behaviors and processes involved in continuous integration (CI).
According to Gartner, the global cloud ITSM market is expected to grow to over $12 billion by 2025. ITSM now is more important than ever (even more so, after the pandemic), and industry leaders agree. What does this mean for ITSM professionals? This blog details how the ITSM profession evolves and what technical and interpersonal ITSM skills professionals will need to excel in 2022 and beyond.

While Go provides a testing package and a go test command, the former only offers basic testing capabilities. The package also has some drawbacks, such as missing assertions and increasing repetition with large-scale tests. As a result, several Go testing frameworks have been created to augment it. Go testing frameworks consist of tools and resources for creating and designing tests. Some of these frameworks incorporate the testing package and go test command, while others take a different approach.
Over the past few months, we set out to drastically reduce the amount of time Code Manager takes to deploy code and sand down some rough edges to make it more stable and robust. In order to understand what we were able to achieve, we need a quick primer on how code is deployed to a Puppet Server in the first place. There are three parts to a Code Manager code deployment: We’ve improved each of these three parts of the Code Manager code deployment.
Bare metal servers are a valuable option for all sizes of businesses, including small, medium, and startups companies. When designing infrastructure it is important to manage cost. However, the decision on whether to run your application on bare metal or cloud provider should not be driven by the size of your company but by your infrastructure needs. Each approach has its own tradeoffs and complexities, especially since it is difficult to find two clouds with the same parameters.
One of Grafana’s most powerful features is the ability to funnel data from hundreds of different data sources (i.e., services or databases) into a single dashboard without migrating the data from where it lives. You can connect and correlate data from Grafana’s curated observability stack for metrics, logs, and traces, or third-party services, such as Splunk, Elasticsearch, Github, Jira, and many more.
In the field of Chaos Theory, there’s a concept called the Synchronization of Chaos—disparate systems filled with randomness will influence the disorder in other systems when coupled together. From a theoretical perspective, these influences can be surprising. It’s difficult to understand exactly how a butterfly flapping its wings could lead to a devastating tornado. But we often see the influences of seemingly unconnected systems play out in real life.
