Argo CD has been skyrocketing in popularity with the CNCF China survey naming Argo as a top CI/CD tool for its power as a deployment automation tool. And it’s no wonder, GitOps is a faster, safer, and more scalable way to do continuous delivery. Most of our own users are embracing GitOps to manage infrastructure and applications at scale in gaming, finance, defense, media, and other industries.

When your organization becomes bigger, managing the users and groups lifecycle becomes a significant challenge. Your company grows rapidly, hiring new employees, and giving them access to more and more applications that your organization uses. This means that there are many employee-related actions that need to be taken when an employee changes their team, role, leaves temporarily or permanently (otherwise you may end up with operational, security or compliance issues).

As software gets more complex, so do software builds. With applications being composed of multiple services — often developed by separate teams — it can be challenging to automate a unified continuous integration process. JFrog Pipelines is unique among DevOps CI/CD solutions in empowering developers to create highly complex DevOps Pipeline workflows. Pipelines can be defined with multiple paths, trigger points and trigger types.

Here at LogicMonitor, we’re really big on extensibility and automation. We’re constantly adding to our catalog of monitoring coverage, and we spend a lot of our time ensuring that setup is as simple as possible. We also monitor almost any data you can expose on a network. People have done way more with LogicMonitor than we would have ever imagined, and I’m extremely excited to announce our next step in that commitment to extensibility and automation.

Secret management is one of the most critical areas in deploying and running applications. Codefresh already had native support for native Kubernetes secrets or custom secrets on the Codefresh Runner, but more and more customers have asked us for native support for Hashicorp Vault. Today we are pleased to announce our native integration with Hashicorp vault as another secret provider for Codefresh pipelines.

Docker is a platform for developers and sysadmins to develop, deploy, and run applications using containers. Docker is also referred to as an application packaging tool. This means that enabled applications can be configured and packaged into a Docker image that can be used to spawn Docker containers that run instances of the application. It provides many benefits including runtime environment isolation, consistency via code, and portability.
