DORA metrics come from an organization called DevOps Research and Assessment. This was a team put together by Google to survey thousands of development teams across multiple industries, to try to understand what makes a high performing team different than a low performing team.

A couple of days ago, I was pleasantly surprised to suddenly see a tweet come in from Viktor Farcic. Viktor now works at upbound.io who developed Crossplane, and he also runs his own popular YouTube channel and co-hosts DevOps Paradox podcast. He’s well respected in the cloud native community.

With DevOps teams moving at ever greater speed, it’s vital for security teams to be deeply involved at all stages of the software development and delivery lifecycle. Breaking down silos between development, operations, and security teams ensures that security considerations are not overlooked, that vulnerabilities are caught early, and that security checkpoints do not slow down the delivery process.

In this episode of the Break Things on Purpose podcast, we speak with Taylor Dolezal, Senior Developer Advocate at HashiCorp.

It’s never been more critical to protect your data infrastructure against malicious actors, with organizations dealing with an ever-expanding number of increasingly sophisticated attacks. Monitoring solutions represent part of your infrastructure’s attack surface area – they enjoy highly privileged access to the systems they help manage, and store sensitive information about the workloads running on them.

Get ready to collaborate with your team on a whole new level. While Git is amazing at tracking changes over time and giving us insight into the past, it’s not so great at helping you see what changes others are currently making or who is assigned to work on what parts of the code on any given project.
