Hunting for Talent on the DevOps Highway

If you happened to be in Tel Aviv, Israel last month, you probably saw the eye-catching JFrog billboards that took over the city. The JFrog logo with a solid bright green background challenged all of us to Imagine There’s No Version. The JFrog green billboards were everywhere! Decorating trains and buses and lighting up the city landmarks. The message was clear; it was an invitation to imagine a future where software updates flow like water.

Multi-Site Orchestration, Breaking the Next Frontier of Enterprise Kubernetes Adoption

While multi-site Kubernetes orchestration has numerous benefits, all of which have the potential to translate into a significant competitive edge, it still largely remains elusive — at least in the vendor space. The reason? Well, multi-site configuration is hard and, since during the first adoption wave, the focus was mainly on one cloud (most enterprises start with simple projects), there wasn’t a real need for it.

Using the 'Run a Child Flow' Action to Call Nested Flows

Calling a flow from another flow is nothing new. Makers can wire up multiple flows using the HTTP Request Trigger and HTTP Action. While this is possible, it creates additional friction as makers have to manually construct request and response messages using JSON. Microsoft recently provided first-class support for calling a flow from another flow by introducing a new action called Run a Child Flow.

App Journey to be Cloud Native - Automated!

Yes, you read it right! The journey of existing apps on-prem to cloud-native has been automated with the use of CloudHedge.io. Allow me to share different steps taken for automation and which scenarios are a better fit. If you have 100s and 1000s of applications and are looking to assess them for cloud readiness, it can be overwhelming! The mix of applications, the infra, the network, and the geographic spread does make the effort of assessment overwhelming.

Kubernetes 101

The appeal of running workloads in containers is intuitive and there are numerous reasons to do so. Shipping a process with its dependencies in a package that’s able to just run reduces the friction of organizational communication and operation. Relative to virtual machines, the size, simplicity, and reduced overhead of containers make a compelling case.

JFrog CLI, Your GitHub Actions Hero

Now that GitHub Actions version 2 is out of Beta and available for general use, how can you start managing your Artifactory repositories in your automated DevOps workflows? Who will save your binaries in distress? Never fear, JFrog is here! A new Action has joined the GitHub Marketplace that enables you to use the JFrog CLI in your GitHub Actions workflows to move your builds through development, test, and release.

Logging Kubernetes on AKS with the ELK Stack and Logz.io

Hosted Kubernetes services such as AKS were introduced to help engineers deal with the complexity involved in deploying and managing Kubernetes clusters. They do not cover, however, the task of monitoring Kubernetes and the services running on it. While some of the hosted Kubernetes services offer logging solutions, they do not offer all the functionality, flexibility and user-experience expected from a modern log management solution.

Codefresh adds native integration for DigitalOcean Kubernetes clusters

Today we are adding native support for DigitalOcean clusters to Codefresh. You could already connect DigitalOcean Clusters as generic clusters in the past (Codefresh works with any cluster that is compliant with the Kubernetes API) but today the process becomes much easier. One of the most important advantages of Codefresh CI/CD is the ability to work with any cloud and git provider.
