They keep working on ensuring that the application should work just as designed for the end-user when they deploy the code.
Today, we announced that Sysdig is acquiring Apolicy to enable our customers to secure their infrastructure as code. I could not be more excited because the innovation that Apolicy brings to bear is unique and highly differentiated, allowing customers to strengthen their Kubernetes and cloud security and compliance by leveraging policy as code and automated remediation workflows that close the gap from source to production.
You may be as surprised as I am that the 2021 State of DevOps Report is live on the site before the annual tradition of a summer holiday (for those of us in EMEA anyway). We may or may not have done this intentionally in order to provide you with quality vacation reading.
