Cloudflare-like outages can cost your business a significant amount of money. This week’s Cloudflare global outage is a wake-up call for business resilience. You can stay resilient against such outages by regularly performing resilience testing and updating your application or infrastructure configurations.

Harness Database DevOps has added Flyway support alongside Liquibase, offering teams a choice between structured changelogs and SQL-first migration scripts. This multi-engine approach ensures developers can use their preferred tool while benefiting from centralized governance, automated safety features, and a unified pipeline for all database changes. The goal is to make database delivery safer, more automated, and flexible across the enterprise.

Automating chaos engineering with Terraform eliminates manual setup across environments by enabling you to version control your entire chaos infrastructure, from service discovery to security governance policies. The Harness Terraform provider supports end-to-end automation including Kubernetes infrastructure setup, custom image registries, Git-based ChaosHub management, and granular security controls that ensure safe experiment execution in production.

Harness surveyed 500 security practitioners and decision makers responsible for securing AI-native applications from the United States, UK, Germany, and France to share findings on global security practices. The State of AI-Native Application Security 2025 dives deep into AI visibility and the changing landscape of security vulnerabilities. If 2024 was the year AI started quietly showing up in our workflows, 2025 was the year it kicked the door down.

Harness has modernized Commitment Orchestrator to give FinOps teams a clearer, faster, and more intelligent way to manage cloud commitments. The redesigned experience unifies visibility across RIs, Savings Plans, on-demand, and Spot usage, with expanded metrics and streamlined workflows for smarter decisions. Built on a foundation for AI-powered insights, it helps teams optimize spend with greater confidence and less manual effort.

Cloud outage? Your flags should keep running. Harness Feature Management ensures seamless feature delivery with instant SDK fallback, local decisioning, and a globally distributed streaming architecture—no redeploys required. Over the past few weeks, the software industry has experienced multiple cloud outages that have caused widespread disruptions across hundreds of applications and services. When systems went down, the difference between chaos and continuity came down to architecture.

The AI Velocity Paradox is real. While teams are writing code faster than ever, they're hitting a wall downstream. Deployments are failing. Security vulnerabilities are slipping through. Manual toil is eating up whatever time developers saved with AI-assisted coding. The speed boost from one part of the software delivery lifecycle is being strangled by legacy processes in another. Harness is solving this the only way that works: by bringing intelligent AI deeper into the delivery process itself.
