Top Continuous Integration Metrics Every Platform Engineering Leader Should Track | Harness Blog
Track build duration, queue time, success rate, and cost per build to directly improve developer productivity, control costs, and enhance delivery reliability. Standardize pipeline metadata and automate metric collection to turn raw CI data into actionable insights across teams, services, and cost centers. Pair metrics with intelligent caching, optimized testing, and build acceleration to reduce build times and operational costs while maintaining security standards.
Unit Testing in CI/CD: How to Accelerate Builds Without Sacrificing Quality | Harness Blog
Smart test selection, parallel test runs, and intelligent caching can all speed up builds without sacrificing code quality. Fast, focused, and separate unit tests are very important for quick development. They give you feedback right away and make it easier to refactor with confidence. Unit tests are a quick and cheap way to find logic errors, but they can't check how different parts work together. For full coverage, use them with integration tests and end-to-end tests.
"Crown Jewels In, Crown Jewels Out" - The Hidden Risk of AI
How do you secure data in the age of Agentic AI? In this episode of ShipTalk, Dewan Ahmed sits down with Devan Shah, Chief Architect of Data Security at IBM, to explore the massive shift from traditional DevOps to AI-infused software delivery. Devan shares his journey from being a chef to leading an "army" of 450+ developers at IBM. They dive deep into the technical bedrock of IBM’s "OnePipeline" (built on Tekton and Argo CD), the rise of Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), and the architectural principles required to ship AI features without compromising security or compliance.
Powering Harness Executions Page: Inside Our Flexible Filters Component | Harness Blog
Filtering data is at the heart of developer productivity. Whether you’re looking for failed builds, debugging a service or analysing deployment patterns, the ability to quickly slice and dice execution data is critical. At Harness, users across CI, CD and other modules rely on filtering to navigate complex execution data by status, time range, triggers, services and much more.
NoSQL Change Control for Compliance | Harness Blog
NoSQL change control must be integrated into CI/CD to ensure governance, traceability, and deployment safety, while automated versioning, testing, and rollbacks reduce compliance risk and preserve release velocity, enabling structured database DevOps to scale innovation without compromising reliability or audit readiness.
Agentic AI in DevOps: The Architect's Guide to Autonomous Infrastructure | Harness Blog
For the last decade, the holy grail of DevOps has been Automation. We spent years writing Bash scripts to move files, Terraform to provision servers, and Ansible to configure them. And for a while, it felt like magic. But any seasoned engineer knows the dirty secret of automation: it is brittle. Automation is deterministic. It only does exactly what you tell it to do. It has no brain. It cannot reason.
Harness Resilience Testing
Even perfect code can fail in unpredictable environments. Learn how Harness helps DevOps and SRE teams uncover hidden resilience risks early in the SDLC using chaos, load, and DR testing. Build continuous resilience, reduce downtime, and recover faster, before failures impact your customers.

Getting Started with Harness Database DevOps using Flyway
Database changes shouldn’t be manual, risky, or disconnected from your release process. This walkthrough shows how to get started with Database DevOps using Flyway and Harness, bringing versioning, automation, and CI/CD discipline to your database migrations. Flyway enables SQL-first, versioned migrations, while Harness provides governance, pipeline orchestration, and environment visibility so teams can deploy database changes with the same confidence as application code.
