Ownership isn’t for everyone — building and maintaining an abode is a lot of trouble when all you need is a place to hang your hat. That can also be true when you’re a creator of Helm charts. You’ll certainly want the benefits of a Helm chart repository to store, version, and share your charts for deploying applications to Kubernetes.

Observability and AI: Better Together

There’s an AI-led developer and operations (DevOps) evolution afoot which is stoking SREs’ increasingly critical efforts to assure and improve the customer experience by automating the toil out of observability.

Monitor Windows hosts with Network Performance Monitoring

If you’re running a mix of Windows– and Linux–based hosts in hybrid or cloud environments, network monitoring is especially important—and especially difficult.

Serverless - Is This Only a Buzzword?

There’s a lot of talk about serverless computing lately, especially with the big tech giants investing in the idea and offering exclusive products built on it. But is it just a buzzword, or does it have the potential to become the next big thing in technology? Cloud computing was once a buzzword, too, one may argue. But that buzzword ended up revolutionizing the whole industry, with 90 percent of companies now using cloud hosting.

HAProxy Enterprise Support Helps Ring Up Holiday Online Sales

With the second wave of coronavirus sweeping across the nation, experts predict a greater percentage of this year’s holiday shopping to be conducted online than ever before. In fact, a recent National Retail Federation Holiday 2020 survey predicts that “digital purchases will be the primary driver of growth this year” with 96% of respondents expecting more online-only holiday sales as consumers are less likely to visit actual stores.

Introducing a New Pull Request Status in Bitbucket Cloud: Changes Requested

To double down on these benefits, we’re releasing a new tool to facilitate communication between pull request reviewers and authors: PR Reviewer Status. Until now, Bitbucket has only had one reviewer status: Approved.
