The team at Cloudsmith is always looking for ways our customers and community can leverage adjacent technologies within the DevOps and application development ecosystem to secure the software supply chain. Cloudsmith developed the first integration with Datadog, the Cloud Monitoring as a Service solution, a few years ago! That integration was the first step in helping the community leverage both solutions simultaneously, strength for strength.

With the Rust team's announcement of the 1.68.0 version of Rust, Cloudsmith is happy to announce our support for the new "sparse" registry protocol, which has been stabilized as part of version 1.68.0. Cargo is the package manager for Rust, a programming language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software. Cloudsmith customers who migrate to the new beta "sparse" registry implementation will dramatically improve the speed and reliability of their builds.

The team at Cloudsmith is excited to build upon our past support and integration with Hashicorp Terraform to include managing teams, update repository settings, and manage services (API Keys) via the Terraform Provider Module.

Welcome to 2023! The year of the Linux Desktop, the rise of AI, Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), DevOps is Dead, Platform Engineering is Alive, and a CNCF landscape that won’t be getting any simpler! Seriously, the technology and software sector is growing at a faster pace than any time I can ever recall. Where do we even begin? I hope you enjoy some predictions and trends that will become more and more evident in 2023.
