Automating GDPR compliance for web applications with CircleCI
Since 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance has been an important milestone in the evolution of privacy laws for web application users across Europe. GDPR requires companies to obtain explicit user consent for data collection and processing, and only for specified, legitimate purposes. It’s a law based on principles of transparency and purpose limitation. This law applies to global companies dealing with EU citizen data, giving individuals control over personal data.
Unprecedented industry turbulence: leading through change ft. Pat Kua, author of LevelUp newsletter
Engineering leadership has never been more challenging, or more critical. In this episode, Rob sits down with Pat Kua, seasoned technology leader, author of three books including Building Evolutionary Architectures, and creator of the popular Level Up newsletter for technical leaders.
Secure Streamlit app deployment with AWS Cognito, Streamlit, and CircleCI
As you develop internal tools or public-facing data applications, implementing authentication mechanisms becomes essential. Without authentication, you risk exposing sensitive information or allowing unauthorized access. Fortunately, integrating secure user access does not have to be complex. AWS Cognito provides a straightforward way to handle authentication, user management, and access control across multiple identity providers.

To Bitbucket from Jenkins: Enhancing Developer Experience
Atlassian’s Bitbucket Cloud has tightly integrated CI/CD capabilities via its Bitbucket Pipelines feature set. However, some of our Bitbucket Cloud and Bitbucket Data Center customers still use Jenkins for CI/CD. In this blog, I present a practical walkthrough of the benefits of Bitbucket Pipelines over a tool like Jenkins in the context of two key stats from our recent State of DevEx 2025 report.
FrogML SDK: the Gateway to Model Governance
Data-driven decisions are critical. And to support high-stakes decision-making – from fraud detection in credit card transactions to demand forecasting in retail – organizations are increasingly relying on complex models. According to McKinsey, 78% of organizations report using AI in at least one business function, highlighting just how embedded AI and ML models have become in operational and strategic decision-making.
How engineers can improve creativity ft. Corey Latislaw of Trainline
Engineering leadership isn't just about technical execution—it's about unlocking the creative potential that drives individual and team success. CircleCI CTO Rob Zuber sits down with Corey Latislaw, Head of Engineering at Trainline and executive coaching expert, to explore how creativity transforms both careers and team dynamics.
Platform Team Toolkit demo
Platform teams face an impossible choice: rigid standardization that slows developers down, or operational chaos that creates security gaps. CircleCI's new Platform Team Toolkit eliminates this tradeoff by delivering self-service developer experiences with built-in governance. What You'll See in This Demo: Key Benefits: Perfect for platform engineers, DevOps teams, and engineering leaders who need to scale software delivery without sacrificing speed or safety.
Zero-downtime deployment with Flagsmith and CircleCI
As developers, we continually strive to improve our software. This often means rolling out new software features at a rapid pace. However, deploying new features to production is not without risk. From no real production testing to limited rollback options, traditional deployment can quickly become frustrating. The worst issues, though, usually stem from one thing: buggy features making their way into the hands of users.
Migrate to Bitbucket Pipelines from Jenkins
In this video, we briefly discuss developer experience before diving into the details of setting up and running a simple CI/CD system using Jenkins and AWS EC2. Using tightly integrated, cloud-native products like Bitbucket Pipelines provides a better developer experience than using self-hosted on-prem tools like Jenkins. With self-hosted on-prem, developers spend less time building software and solving problems for their customers and more time maintaining their on-prem software.
Stop Guessing with OAuth: Understanding CI/CD
OAuth 2.0 is the leading open authorization framework that enables secure delegated access to protected resources. From traditional web apps and browser-based apps to native apps and desktop applications, OAuth allows client apps to grant access on a user’s behalf without exposing login credentials, enabling powerful third-party applications, custom data flows, and powerful user experiences. However, while OAuth is secure, it’s not always fast.
Implementing IT Access Management: A DevOps Operations Guide for Streamlined Security Integration
Effective IT access management in DevOps requires implementing automated controls that scale with development workflows while maintaining security principles throughout the entire software lifecycle.
How to Perform Better Tests in CI Pipeline
Don't let AI mistakes slip through! Proxymock records real production traffic, turning it into powerful mocks for automated integration and load tests. Ensure code quality and performance before deployment.
Balancing Speed and Safety with Continuous Delivery
The benefits of continuous delivery are well known these days: rapid feedback, speed of innovation, reduced fault recovery time, and increased confidence in release processes. Along the same lines, those who release less frequently are likely to encounter more stress. Continuous delivery is a spectrum; it doesn’t have to mean blasting every commit to all production environments at once. So, how do we strike a balance between speed and safety?
Patterns for safe and efficient cache purging in CI/CD pipelines
"There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things."—Phil Karlton In the age of increasingly frequent deploys, edge caching, and Jamstack adoption, caching plays a key role across the software delivery life cycle. In build and CI pipelines, caching compiled assets or dependencies helps reduce compute costs, speed up job runtimes, and lower the environmental impact (regarding energy usage) of repeated builds.
The Innovation vs. Control Syndrome: Unlocking Enterprise AI's Full Potential
From optimizing supply chains to personalizing customer experiences, artificial intelligence and machine learning models are no longer statistics-based revenue initiatives; they’re foundational to modern business strategy. Organizations are pouring resources into developing and deploying AI, driven by the promise of unprecedented efficiency, insight, and competitive advantage. Yet, beneath this surging wave of innovation lies a growing tension: the Innovation vs. Control Syndrome.
The strategic art of build vs. buy in software delivery ft. Tara Hernandez of MongoDB
Rob Zuber sits down with Tara Hernandez, VP of Developer Productivity at MongoDB and former Netscape engineer who helped create early continuous integration systems, to explore strategic frameworks for build vs. buy decisions in modern software delivery.
