This series shows you how to get started with infrastructure as code (IaC). The goal is to help developers build a strong understanding of IaC through tutorials and code examples. In this post, I will demonstrate how to how to create a Docker image for an application, then push that image to Docker Hub. I will also discuss how to create and deploy the Docker image to a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster using HashiCorp’s Terraform.

Embedded devices with limited memory and storage resources are likely to leverage a tool such as BusyBox, which is marketed as the Swiss Army Knife of embedded Linux. BusyBox is a software suite of many useful Unix utilities, known as applets, that are packaged as a single executable file. Within BusyBox you can find a full-fledged shell, a DHCP client/server, and small utilities such as cp, ls, grep, and others.

This series shows you how to get started with infrastructure as code (IaC). The goal is to help developers build a strong understanding of IaC through tutorials and code examples. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is an integral part of modern continuous integration pipelines. It is the process of managing and provisioning cloud and IT resources using machine readable definition files.

Imagine a world where every team member could directly contribute to software together. We’re living in that world now. With more than 10 million daily active users, Slack is one of the most ‘lived in’ collaboration tools used by software development teams around the world.

Automating tests and deployments with infrastructure (CI/CD) more productive. Instead of managing multiple tools and manual processes, all they have to do is commit the code to a code repository. Not everyone on a project visits the CI/CD system, but they may need to know when the build process fails or is successful. This is where a proper handshake between CI/CD systems and project management tools such as Jira shines.

In July and August of this year, I revealed to our community for the first time that Bitbucket Cloud was engaged in a project to migrate to a new platform. As I wrote in July: I am thrilled to announce that, in late August, we officially completed this project and Bitbucket Cloud has been operating in AWS, data center-free for over 2 months. So how does this benefit our customers? This is one of the most technically complex projects we've ever tackled as a team.

MobX is a scalable library developed to ease the process of state management in frontend applications. In this tutorial, you will learn how to manage the state of your Flutter applications using MobX, and then set up a continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline for your application using CircleCI. You can find the sample project developed for this tutorial in this GitHub repository.

Cloudsmith is happy to announce an integration with Datadog to help our customers monitor their Cloudsmith account. Datadog is an observability service for cloud-scale apps, providing monitoring of servers, databases, tools, and services through a SaaS based data analytics platform. At Cloudsmith we are big fans of Datadog and use it to monitor and visualize how our system is performing across a range of services and tools.

We are excited to announce the launch of the Bitbucket Cloud Migration Assistant (BCMA). The BCMA is an Atlassian-supported app built to help Bitbucket Server customers automate the migration process from Bitbucket Server to Bitbucket Cloud. If you are considering a move to Bitbucket Cloud, this is the easiest way to get started. Download the BCMA from the Atlassian marketplace.

CircleCI orbs are reusable packages of YAML configuration that condense repeated pieces of config into a single line of code. Since its launch in 2018, the CircleCI orbs registry has been used by developers, development teams, and by companies who want to help developers integrate their services seamlessly into continuous integration pipelines. In this tutorial, we will show how to use CircleCI orbs to continuously deploy a Node.js application to Heroku, one of the most popular hosting platforms.
