Observability versus monitoring in software development

To supervise the behavior of distributed applications and track the origin of service failures and downtime, developers often use traditional monitoring technologies and tools. However, this approach can fall short in its ability to measure the overall health of modern cloud-native architectures, which can span multiple hosting environments and encompass hundreds of microservices.

Introducing Bitbucket's redesigned Branch page

Continuous integration for Angular applications

Automated testing is the foundation of your continuous integration practice. Automated testing clarifies the status of build processes for your team’s applications, ensures that tests run on every commit or pull request, and guarantees that you can make quick bug fixes before deploying to the production environment. In this tutorial, I will show you how to automate the testing of an Angular application.

How to Use Pub Repositories in Artifactory

If you’re one of the growing number of client app developers embracing the Dart programming language and Flutter and AngularDart toolkits, we’ve got some exciting news for you! JFrog can now welcome Dart developers to the empowerment of Artifactory’s robust binaries management and the ways that it contributes to continuous integration.

Automate the deployment of Angular apps to Firebase

Developers use JavaScript frameworks like Angular, React, and Vue.js to build every kind of single page application, from simple to complex. By separating JavaScript and CSS, frameworks let dev teams structure applications in modular chunks of code that carry out a single function. That is great, but once your application is ready for deployment to production, you will need a command to compile and bundle the separate files into a single one.

Cloudsmith Supports OpenSSF's Efforts to Secure OSS

As part of our mission to make it simple to secure software at scale through Continuous Packaging, Cloudsmith is excited to announce that we have become an Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) member.
