With the increasing adoption of Kubernetes in recent years, there are various means and tools for achieving continuous delivery to Kubernetes. While it is possible to create a consistent CI/CD pipeline up to deploying to Kubernetes using CI/CD tools like CircleCI, there has been a rise in cases combining dedicated CD tools like FluxCD and ArgoCD to achieve this as well. A common aspect among these CD-dedicated tools is their adoption of GitOps.

Shadow IT is defined as the use of IT-related hardware or software by an individual without the knowledge of the IT admin. For example, if a user creates a new Bitbucket Cloud workspace within your organization without the knowledge of the organization admin, it can lead to potentially sensitive data being exposed.

In this blog, we walk through Atlassian's cloud security practices and the controls we give you inside Bitbucket to maintain enterprise-grade security, without the overhead of managing it internally. Security is an essential part of Atlassian's offerings. We manage code and data for over 300,000 customers who serve hundreds of millions of users. To secure data at the scale we operate, we invest more in security than most individual organizations can.

Machine learning (ML) models are almost always developed in an offline setting, but they must be deployed into a production environment in order to learn from live data and deliver value. A common complaint among ML teams, however, is that deploying ML models in production is a complicated process. It is such a widespread issue that some experts estimate that as many as 90 percent of ML models never make it into production in the first place.
