We have a range of integrations with GitHub that I’ll introduce you to later in this document. But first of all, I’m happy to announce that elmah.io has been chosen as a GitHub Technology Partner to build integrations in the Marketplace and extend developer capabilities. elmah.io integrates with GitHub in two ways.

Ciara discusses how to analyze SBOMs for vulnerabilities using Open Source tools, and how Cloudsmith can take actions like quarantining your images if it contains vulnerabilities above a certain level.

In HAProxy Data Plane API version 2.6, we continued the effort of expanding support for HAProxy configuration keywords, as this has been the priority with this release cycle, and it will be in the next one too to meet our goal of achieving complete feature parity with both the HAProxy configuration and Runtime API.
