Most organizations that make software — from small startups to multi-billion-dollar behemoths — use third-party libraries and tools to develop their applications. Modern apps depend on many external components to build and deliver software to customers. These libraries and tools are collectively called the software supply chain. A software supply chain for a typical web app may include components like these.

Alan and Lee talk about the journey of Cloudsmith, and how we got to where we're at today with the latest pricing announcement.

We dive into the details of why we're changing the pricing at Cloudsmith, what it means for you, and how we can help.

Without logs, or a good understanding of them, debugging an application or looking through an error stack trace can be challenging. Luckily, Flask logging can change the way you understand debugging and how you interact with logs produced by the application. The Flask logging module gives you a way to record errors over different severity levels. A default logging module is included in the Python standard library, and it provides both simple and advanced logging functions.

We are happy to announce that Bitbucket Pipelines now supports self-hosted runners on Windows. You can create a self-hosted runner and run it on your Windows infrastructure to run builds with the.Net framework. Since you're using your own runner, you won’t be charged for any Bitbucket Pipelines build minutes. This self-hosted runner will be non-containerized, allowing your CI/CD step to access the host’s hardware, such as the graphics card or any connected external devices.

Today we’re excited to make three major announcements. First, we’re making it easier to adopt the very popular Codefresh GitOps CD with a fully SaaS offering that is hosted and managed by Codefresh. We’ve heard from many in the community that they’d like to get away from managing Argo CD and focus just on deploying and managing their applications. Hosted GitOps CD makes it easier than ever to adopt GitOps, just create an account, connect your target clusters, and deploy.

There are many different ways to run a Kubernetes cluster, from setting everything up manually to using a lightweight distribution like K3s. K3s is a Kubernetes distribution built for IoT and edge computing and is excellent for running on low-powered devices like Raspberry Pis. However, you aren’t limited to running it on low-powered hardware; it can be used for anything from a Homelab up to a Production cluster.

Curious about continuous deployment vs delivery? We explain what each is, what happens in each step, and their importance in the DevOps lifecycle.

High-quality code is efficient and reliable, runs well without bugs, and meets user needs. It can cope with errors or unusual conditions. It is also easy to understand, maintain, and expand with new features. Additionally, its portability means that it can run on as many machines as reasonably possible. Development teams work with codebases that are constantly changing. They add, delete, and modify existing code to improve speed or implement new features.
