Today, we are pleased to announce the release of CFEngine 3.20.0! Over the past few years we’ve focused on ease of use, new user experience, and out of the box value, giving you the ability to do much more through only the Mission Portal Web UI. This has resulted in several important steps forward; policy analyzer, compliance reports, host specific data (CMDB), and CFEngine Build with custom promise types and other modules.
Imagine you want to build and deploy a Nuxt3 app on Netlify. Because custom scripts are not allowed on Netlify, you will not be able to perform custom tasks like automated testing before deploying the website to your Jamstack hosting platform. That is where continuous integration/continuous deployment comes in. With a CI/CD system, you can run the kind of automated tests that create successful deployments.
Because DevOps practices can bring great speed and reliability to the software delivery lifecycle, release management can seem daunting. But, the improved visibility and collaboration brought about by DevOps can also help with the release management process. DevOps-centric release management is the future of software development and IT operations.
Since the evolution of the IT industry, different concepts have been introduced to enhance and speed application production. Automating processes is gradually becoming the way forward and, so far, the best way to speed the deployment process of projects. Today, though, NoOps has come along. The prevalence of NoOps means manual intervention may not be needed in IT operations, but is this going to mean the extinction of DevOps? Turns out, NoOps might just be a next step in the progression of DevOps.
