The modern software development lifecycle comprises two key phases: continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery or deployment (CD). In both stages, automation reduces manual labor, minimizing human errors. That enables DevOps teams to focus on mission-critical work instead of continually fixing mistakes. Automating CI/CD also provides a check and balance system for rolling back errors. Aside from ensuring optimal system performance, this also improves other areas, like security and compliance.

As businesses realized the potential of artificial intelligence (AI), the race began to incorporate machine learning operations (MLOps) into their commercial strategies. But the integration of machine learning (ML) into the real world proved challenging, and the vast gap between development and deployment was made clear. In fact, research from Gartner tells us 85% of AI and ML fail to reach production.

Bitbucket Pipelines is excited to announce support for CI/CD third-party secrets – a powerful new feature that enables you to seamlessly retrieve secrets directly from your preferred secret store. This enhancement ensures your workflows remain efficient and secure. Now, you can set up your own integration and customize the utilization of your secrets to suit your needs.

After a focused period of design and development, the new Cloudsmith web app is now available to all customers at app.cloudsmith.com. The new web app replaces the existing cloudsmith.io, which will be fully decommissioned in June 2025.

As Kubernetes continues to dominate the container orchestration space, the need for robust CI/CD tools to streamline deployment workflows is greater than ever. With a plethora of options available, choosing the right CI/CD platform can significantly impact the efficiency and scalability of your DevOps pipeline. In this blog, we’ll explore the top Kubernetes CI/CD tools in 2025 and why RazorOps is a standout choice.

As a DevOps practitioner with over a decades of experience, I have witnessed the evolution of this domain from its nascent stages to becoming a critical aspect of modern software delivery. As we look forward to 2025, the DevOps ecosystem is poised for significant transformation, driven by technological advancements, organizational shifts, and the growing complexity of software systems. Here are the top 50 trends that I believe will shape the future of DevOps in 2025.

Harness.io is one of today’s most popular platforms for automating continuous delivery (CD). The platform enables engineers to build CD pipelines (Harness Smart Automation) rapidly, automatically verify code changes to reduce rollbacks (Harness Continuous Verification), and deliver enterprise-grade security (Harness Continuous Security) for teams of all sizes. With Harness Cost Management, you can even optimize your AWS cloud costs.

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.

We’re excited to announce the first set of official Codefresh steps for Octopus Deploy. This provides another way to streamline your processes by integrating your Codefresh builds with deployments in Octopus Deploy. In this post, we walk you through the process of creating a release and deploying it to an Octopus environment through Codefresh Pipelines.
