Clouds remain segmented, leaving businesses little recourse for how to best navigate complexity. The multicloud movement has flavors to it. Intentional or accidental, an enterprise can blend a kaleidoscope of infrastructure services with existing software tools. IaaS requirements can tag along with SaaS adoption, easily creating a multicloud environment before technology teams can consider the sprawl.

Ah, the romance of the railroad. Conductors shouting “all aboard”, watching the countryside whizz by, dining cars and sleeper cars, boxcars, the Orient Express, bullet trains, chasm-spanning bridges, the clickety clack of the rails, clang clang at the crossings, and the engineer waving from the caboose. As we near the two hundred year mark of the first passenger train in 1825, we can observe that railways, our oldest modern means of mass transportation, are as strong as ever.

I am excited to share that we’ve just launched our first open source project called ValidKube. The idea behind Validkube is to fuse together the capabilities of three other popular open-source projects (kubeval, kubectl-neat and trivy by Aqua) and present them in a single view, providing users with a way to ensure YAML code hygiene and security, all at the same time and with just a few clicks of the button.

With security now a critical “must have” for DevOps teams, JFrog significantly deepened and extended our platform’s already solid security capabilities in 2021. In this post, we’ll look back at our major advances last year – and look forward at what’s to come in 2022.

Now that conferences are finally coming back, what better way to emerge from uncertainty with a strategy marked for success? If you’re wondering which technology conferences and events to attend, how about starting with containers and Kubernetes? As the leading platform technology underlying containers, Kubernetes can help you build, deploy, and manage applications faster and at scale.

February, 8th 2022 — Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu, and CoreSpace, a leading Infrastructure-as-a-Service provider, announced a partnership today that makes it easier and more economical for organizations to set up, customize, and manage private clouds. Hybrid or multi-cloud environments that allow organizations to run workloads where it makes the most sense have become common in the modern enterprise.

Every second counts when IT teams are called upon to resolve business impacting issues. In modern enterprises, poor communication, fragmented toolchains and spiralling IT complexity can conspire to slow down incident response, putting service availability and ultimately customer satisfaction in peril.
