The latest News and Information on Continuous Integration and Development, and related technologies.
The DevOps infinity loop is a visualization that everyone reading this article is likely familiar with, and one that comfortably predates serverless computing. Yet despite the peculiarities of developing within the serverless paradigm, it’s still what guides our approach to CICD. But while the zoomed-out view might be the same, when it comes to adjusting for serverless, the devil is in the details.
For some organizations, even the best isn’t quite enough. That’s why JFrog Xray provides a way for you to specify your own additional data, to detect even more sensitive issues in your binaries before they can reach production. JFrog Xray is a tool for DevSecOps teams to gain insight into the open source components used in their applications.
We’re excited to announce the new and improved ConanCenter! Use our new center with an enhanced UI experience to discover your favorite Conan C/C++ packages. If you’re not familiar with Conan yet, it’s a decentralized package manager for C/C++ that empowers developers to share packages through a push-pull model similar to Git. ConanCenter is a central repository for open source Conan packages, created and maintained by JFrog.
At Codefresh, we know that any CI/CD solution must be attractive to both developers and operators (SREs). One of the major advantages of Codefresh is the graphical user interface that includes dashboards for Kubernetes and Helm deployments. These graphical dashboards are very useful to developers who are just getting started with deployments and pipelines.
Golang developers care a lot about security and as Go modules become more widely used, they need more ways to assure these publicly shared files are safe. One unique feature included with Golang version 1.13 is the foresight that went into authentication and security for Go modules. When a developer creates a new module or a new version of an existing module, a go.sum file included there creates a list of SHA-256 hashes that are unique to that module version.
In the holiday spirit, we’re bringing a little cheer to the Golang community by celebrating the achievements of some noteworthy Go module authors. We’re excited to launch a new program within JFrog GoCenter that honors select “Top Gophers.” Using key metrics of success such as number of downloads and imports, quality metrics, and usage in GoCenter, we aim to highlight projects that we think are really helping improve software development for the Go developer community.
Open source components have become a basic building block in today’s software development process. It’s no surprise that 60%-80% of the codebase in 92% of modern applications is open source — they provide us with tried-and-true code that allows us to save time and focus on creating the secret sauce that will make our products the next great tech innovation.
