GitKraken Insights | Engineering Intelligence in Minutes

Most software intelligence tools take months to implement, cost a fortune, and end up collecting dust. GitKraken Insights is different. It helps engineering leaders measure what matters: AI impact, code quality, delivery performance, and developer experience, all in one place. It’s the latest evolution of the GitKraken DevEx platform, trusted by over 40 million developers. Insights connects data from across your GitKraken tools to give you a complete picture of engineering health and value. We're talking DORA metrics, pull request metrics, and AI impact.

Why Every Developer Needs Their Own AI Knowledge Base (It's Easier Than You Think)

Ever feel like you're drowning in documentation scattered across Confluence, Slack, Jira, and Git commits? Kyle Fransham, Senior VP of R&D at Superna, shares why every developer should run their own local LLM and shows you exactly how to do it.

No cloud dependencies, no organization bottlenecks...just your own development copilot that understands your unique workflows, tips, and tribal knowledge.

AI-Powered Translation Tools: A Hidden Asset for Scaling DevOps Globally

DevOps or development (Dev) and IT operations (Ops) teams are no longer confined to single geographic locations or language groups. With over 80% of organizations now practicing DevOps (a figure projected to reach 94% in the near future), the challenge of scaling operations globally has never been more critical. Yet, one persistent bottleneck continues to slow down even the most sophisticated DevOps workflows: language barriers.

Optimizing Enterprise Operations Through Professional Data Center Decommissioning

You ever walk into a server room that feels like a time capsule? Half the machines are blinking away like they're still running Windows Server 2003. Then there's a label on a rack that nobody remembers putting there, and someone swears the old backup tape drive "might still be needed." Yeah. That. It's wild how many large organizations run on infrastructure that's way past its prime. And I get it - no one wants to mess with systems that are still technically "working."

Debugging Without a Net: The Pain of Reproducing Production Issues

Every engineer has been there — a late-night page, a broken feature in production, and no clear way to reproduce it. The logs are vague. The metrics look normal. Your local environment works fine. Yet something somewhere is failing for real users. So begins the detective work — debugging a live system with almost no tools, no perfect test data, and no clone of production.

How to test the reliability of a Point of Sale (POS) system

Point of Sale (POS) systems are the backbone of any retail store. A single outage can cost retail companies thousands of dollars each minute in lost sales, and even more if the outage happens during peak hours. If the outage goes on too long, it can cause even more costly damage as customers abandon carts and turn to competitors. In an industry where customer loyalty is worth its weight in gold, that brand damage can end up even more costly than the initial lost sales.
