The SDLC: phases, popular models, benefits & more

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) describes the process we follow to deliver software to customers. It captures each step of creating software, from ideation to delivery and eventually to maintenance. In this post, we've broken down everything you need to understand the SDLC.

Three Architectural Principles for Mythos & GPT-Cyber Readiness

Since Anthropic announced Project Glasswing and the capabilities of Claude Mythos Preview, and OpenAI announced GPT-Cyber – my calendar has looked the same every day: Back-to-back calls with CISOs, AppSec leads, and security architects. And every call starts with the same question.

How to Improve Your Documentation with AI (CircleCI Chunk Tutorial)

AI coding assistants help you ship features fast, but documentation almost never keeps up. In this Ship Smarter session, we'll show you how CircleCI's Chunk autonomous CI/CD agent automatically analyzes your codebase, identifies documentation gaps, and opens a pull request with improvements. No manual writing required. In this video.

Introducing Chunk sidecars: Inner loop validation that keeps up with your agents

Local development and remote validation were always meant to work together: developers iterate on their machine, run a few manual checks, then push to CI to clear code for production. But AI development broke that balance, flooding CI with a volume of commits no developer has read, let alone tested. Chunk sidecars restore the balance: lightweight, preconfigured environments that run alongside your local workflow and validate changes as they happen.

Inside Atlassian's Merge Queues: How we ship faster with fewer incidents

At Atlassian, we use Merge Queues to ship frequent changes with confidence and streamline pull request merges. Across some of our busiest codebases, Merge Queues have sharply reduced incident frequency and turned merging from a stressful bottleneck into a background task. Today, most of our largest repositories rely on Merge Queues—over 70 large repos across products like Jira, Rovo, Trello, and others—having safely landed 30,000 pull requests since adopting Merge Queues Beta last quarter.

The 2026 software supply chain security gap

AI-generated code is now nearly universal. Enforcement is not. That gap is where your software supply chain is most exposed. Cloudsmith's CEO Glenn Weinstein, Co-Founder & CTO Lee Skillen, and VP of Product Alison Sickelka join Product Marketing Manager Meghan McGowan to unpack the 2026 State of Artifact Management report – a survey-based look at how AI development is reshaping the threat landscape, what organizations are getting wrong, and what the highest-leverage fix actually looks like.

Accelerating AI Agent Development on Google Cloud with JFrog MCP Registry

Developers building agentic AI on Google Cloud have powerful infrastructure at their fingertips: Gemini 3 for reasoning, Google’s Agent Development Kit (ADK) for orchestration, and a rapidly expanding ecosystem of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that connect agents to data and tools. So why are so many teams still waiting weeks to ship their first agent to production?
