CI/CD best practices | Harness Blog

Mar 24, 2026 By Chinmay Gaikwad In Harness
Modern software teams are under constant pressure to ship faster without breaking production. That’s why CI/CD best practices have become essential for high-performing DevOps organizations. Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) help automate builds, testing, and deployments — but simply installing a pipeline tool isn’t enough. Without the right practices, pipelines become slow, flaky, and difficult to govern.

Flaky Tests: The Quiet Killer of Productivity in Your CI Pipeline | Harness Blog

Mar 24, 2026 By Chinmay Gaikwad In Harness
‍Flaky tests are automated tests that pass or fail inconsistently without changes to the code. In this guide, you’ll learn why flaky tests happen, how to detect them automatically in CI pipelines, and how modern platforms prevent them from slowing teams down. Your test went well three times yesterday. It didn't work this morning. You ran it again without changing anything, and now it works. Congratulations, you've just passed a flaky test, and now someone's day is going to be ruined.

Is Website Hosting Worth It for New Businesses? Security, Risks & Performance

Mar 24, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
For many new businesses, building an online presence is no longer optional-it is essential. Whether you are offering products, services, or information, a website helps establish credibility and reach a wider audience. In competitive markets like Singapore, having a reliable website can make a significant difference in how customers perceive your brand. However, one common question among startups is whether investing in website hosting is truly necessary. Concerns about cost, security, and technical complexity often lead businesses to delay or overlook this decision.

FastAPI Testing: Mock LLM APIs for Free

Mar 23, 2026 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale
Testing a FastAPI app that calls OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini gets expensive fast. The problem is not just the API bill in production. It is all the repeated traffic in development: prompt tweaks, CI runs, regression checks, and the load tests you keep putting off because every run burns tokens. Hand-written mocks do not help much once the app is doing multi-step LLM work.

Introducing hosted control planes on Konstruct

Mar 23, 2026 By John Dietz In Civo
For seven years, I've watched the same pattern. An organization decides it needs a platform and assigns two of its best engineers. They estimate it will take three months, but eighteen months later, they're still integrating ArgoCD with their secrets manager, still debugging Crossplane providers, and still arguing about how to structure the GitOps repo. What’s happened is they’ve built something that works for one team and can't be repeated for a second.

What Is a DevOps Pipeline? Stages, Benefits, and CI/CD Explained | Harness Blog

Mar 23, 2026 By Chinmay Gaikwad In Harness
A DevOps pipeline is a critical part of modern software delivery. It is a series of automated steps that move code from commit to production quickly, reliably, and consistently. At its core, a DevOps pipeline is a system that helps teams build, test, and release apps in an easier way. It cuts down on manual work and mistakes. This helps teams send out updates more often, make better software, and react quickly when the business needs change.

Code Coverage: Measure, Improve, and Scale Quality in CI | Harness Blog

Mar 23, 2026 By Chinmay Gaikwad In Harness
Most engineering teams know the difference between “we have tests” and “we know we’re well-tested.” Your CI builds may be green, but without code coverage, it’s hard to prove how much of your code is actually exercised by automated tests. Code coverage measures what percentage of your code runs during tests (lines, branches, and functions), and when you wire it into CI gates, it becomes an enforceable quality signal and not a vanity metric.

How to Drive Internal Platform Adoption Developers Love | Harness Blog

Mar 23, 2026 By Bri Strozewski In Harness
Internal platform adoption usually doesn’t fail because developers “hate standards.” It fails because the platform doesn’t make their day easier. If your portal still means waiting, waiting on an environment, waiting on an approval, waiting on the platform team, it becomes one more tab that people stop opening. But if the platform lets engineers get the common stuff done quickly (with guardrails that keep things consistent), they’ll come back on their own.
