Secret Manager Integration: One Source of Truth for Humans and Agents.

Production secrets should live in one place and stay there, whether your next deployment is triggered by a developer or an AI agent. The Secret Manager integration connects AWS Secrets Manager, AWS SSM, or GCP Secret Manager to Qovery so secrets are referenced, never copied, and enterprise governance holds regardless of who deploys. Alessandro leads product at Qovery. He drives the changelog, roadmap, and product strategy - turning customer feedback into platform capabilities.

Your Metrics Look Fine. Your Engineers Are About to Quit.

Developer experience predicts what's coming 3 to 6 months before it shows up in your delivery metrics. So why are most engineering leaders measuring it last? In this session, GitKraken VP of Developer Research Jeremy Castile breaks down what developer experience (DevX) actually is, how to measure it across 6 key dimensions, and how it connects to velocity, code quality, and AI impact data your team is already tracking.

How to Size Infrastructure When Hardware Delays and Cost Pressure Change the Equation

Sizing infrastructure has always required a balance between performance, capacity, and risk. What has changed is the level of precision required to make those decisions. Hardware timelines are less predictable. Costs are under closer review. Decisions that were once routine now require clear justification. In many cases, the question is no longer just how much capacity is needed, but whether that capacity can be delivered when it is needed and whether the investment will hold up under scrutiny.

Enforce Artifact Governance with OPA Policy-as-Code | Harness Artifact Registry

Artifact governance should not depend on manual checks. But for many teams, container images, software packages, and open-source dependencies are imported into registries from multiple internal and external sources. Without automated guardrails, vulnerable images, untrusted packages, end-of-life dependencies, or non-compliant artifacts can reach developers and delivery pipelines.

AI Cost Savings Unlocking Hidden Engineering Value

Bain says AI cost savings aren't arriving. But the value isn't missing, it's invisible. Most engineering teams can see token spend. They can see AI usage. What they can't see is whether any of it shipped, and whether it moved the needle on delivery. That's the measurement gap. And until it closes, AI ROI will keep looking worse than it should.

An Architect's Guide to IPoDWDM

IPoDWDM is an architecture that integrates IP routing and Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing into a single, converged platform. This integration is achieved by placing coherent optics directly into the ports of IP routers and switches, a fundamental shift from traditional network designs. Consequently, this approach eliminates the need for a separate, dedicated layer of optical transponders and their associated shelving.
