A few months ago we introduced Repository Access Tokens which were the first of the new resource-based authentication methods we are introducing to Bitbucket Cloud. Repository Access Tokens enable a convenient, yet secure way to manage access for users to a specific repository. While repository access tokens enable you to allow you to control access at a granular level, they are not scalable.

On January 4, 2023, we alerted customers to a security incident. Today, we want to share with you what happened, what we’ve learned, and what our plans are to continuously improve our security posture for the future.

Customers can now integrate Cloudsmith with Roadie, letting users monitor key Cloudsmith data within the Roadie developer portal. Cloudsmith has just announced an exciting new integration with Roadie, a start-up that provides SaaS for Backstage, a service catalog open-sourced by Spotify that automatically tracks your microservices. Organizations use Roadie to build a software catalog and developer portal for internal systems, centralizing information in one convenient location.

GitLab CI is a powerful tool for managing the software development and deployment process. It allows you to define and automate build, test, and deployment pipelines and provides features such as version control, collaboration, and continuous integration. However, while GitLab CI is an excellent tool for managing a single environment, it can have some limitations when it comes to managing multiple environments, especially dynamic environments.

Continuous delivery is a software development approach in which code changes are automatically staged for production release. A foundation for modern application development, continuous delivery extends continuous integration by automatically deploying code changes to test and production environments after the build phase. When properly implemented, developers have deployable build artifacts that have passed a standardized testing process and can be deployed to environments as needed.
