The movement away from on-premise and towards the Cloud is unstoppable. Even the US government is on board with their plans to “accelerate movement to secure cloud services, including Software as a Service (SaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Platform as a Service (PaaS).” On-prem software is deployed, hosted, and maintained by your organization.
In early 2020, threat actors breached the build systems of Solarwinds and used this access to add malicious code into one of SolarWinds products. The product, called “Orion”, is very widely used and deployed by tens of thousands of companies, including many Fortune 500 companies.
It’s official: regulations by the US and UK governments are coming down the track to secure the software supply chain.
At Cloudsmith, we believe that packaging should be at the centre of any modern build and deployment process. In fact, we think that Continuous Packaging is the glue that ties Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment or Delivery together. So with that in mind, in this blog, we will take a walk through how easy it is to integrate Cloudsmith with a Semaphore CI workflow and push the artifacts and packages that you build to a private repository. TL:DR – It’s super easy.
Today, almost every service now is offered in a “Cloud” variant. But what does that really mean? Are all clouds services equal? It’s easy to see why so many vendors rush to add a Cloud edition/variant of established software they sell. Undoubtedly, there has been a move to Cloud services across the industry, as more and more organizations seek to take advantage of the higher reliability and lower total cost of ownership that Cloud platforms promise.
In this blog, we will walk through the process of configuring a private Cloudsmith repository as an artifact source for a Harness Continuous Deployment pipeline. Harness is a Continuous Deployment platform that allows you to easily automate the deployment of your software to your infrastructure and environments.
