DevOps is one of the core pillars of any organization. As the company grows, its processes also scale to absorb the new growth. Scaling DevOps is inevitable for any organization's growth. You cannot scale consistently if your DevOps processes involve a lot of manual steps and take much time to deliver new projects. A scalable DevOps means the system can expand automatically during a high workload and shrink back when the needs are reduced to normal.

Microservices are loosely coupled software that provides flexibility and scalability to a cloud environment. However, securing this open architecture from vulnerabilities and malicious actors can be challenging without a service mesh. This blog post will demonstrate how you can create an Istio and Calico integration to establish a service mesh that will manipulate HTTP traffic in the application layer.

These three IAM security misconfiguration scenarios are rather common. Discover how they can be exploited, but also, how easy it is to detect and correct them. Identity and access management (IAM) misconfigurations are one of the most common concerns in cloud security. Over the last few years, we have seen how these security holes put organizations at increased risk of experiencing serious attacks on their Cloud accounts.

With 34% of cloud developers facing difficulties when calculating how much their cloud provider is going to charge them each month, it is essential to prioritize cloud cost management. This concept surrounds the process of monitoring, controlling, and optimizing an organization’s cloud service spend. By having the correct cloud cost management strategies in place, organizations are able to eliminate unnecessary expenses through optimizing resource allocation and cost-saving strategies.

I’m excited to announce the general availability of the SUSE NeuVector container security platform version 5.1. With the 5.1 release, customers will benefit from more efficient and powerful vulnerability scanning and admission controls across multiple clusters through centralized enterprise scanning, auto-scaling scanners and support for the new Kubernetes (1.25+) pod security admission (PSA) standard. The release also supports the Cilium network plug-in.

As companies start their Kubernetes and cloud-native journey, cloud infrastructures and services grow at a rapid pace. This happens all too often as organizations shift left without thorough controls, which can lead to overallocating and overspending on their Kubernetes environments. Organizations running workloads in the cloud can put budgets at risk when they lack information about key facts.

As we enter the holiday season, online shopping and payment systems are gearing up for higher traffic and workloads. Ensuring that these applications can handle the increased demand without slowing down or crashing is critical for providing a smooth and efficient experience for customers. One way to improve the performance and reliability of these applications is by using chiselled Ubuntu images in your containerised deployment.

Code, features, pull requests, code reviews and so much more! 2022 has been a year of dramatic growth and change for Codefresh. Join us for a review of the year! As companies that build software, you rewarded Codefresh with healthy revenue growth throughout 2022 because you’ve told us progressive software delivery remains a critical investment and top priority.

The structured nature of Kubernetes enables a repeatable and scalable means of deploying and managing services and applications. This has led to widespread adoption across market verticals for both on-premises and cloud deployment models. The autonomous nature of Kubernetes operation, however, demands comprehensive, fully-converged observability and security. This is uniquely possible today using the Elastic platform.
