When I speak with customers, especially chief information security officers (CISOs), one of their most consistent requests is that they want interoperability. They want the software they buy to work with the software they have and plan to buy in the future. Nearly every organization, certainly every enterprise company, has an installed base of hardware and software representing a significant investment in time and money.

Sentry is an open source company, and it’s important to us to financially support our non-commercial colleagues in the community as we continue to enjoy commercial success. We’ve given money forever, but last year we really got organized and gave $154,999.89 to 108 recipients. Two points make a line, and this year we are back with a continuation of the industry-leading open source funding program we put in place last year.

Think open source – the world’s leading software portfolio. Open-source software enables you to build fully functional virtualisation and cloud infrastructure while ensuring total cost of ownership (TCO) reduction and business continuity. In this blog, we will walk you through the open source ecosystem. We will help you understand how it differs from other VMware alternatives by answering five common questions.

Google just announced that they have submitted an application for Kubeflow to become an incubating project in the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). It is an initiative supported by the Kubeflow Project Steering group. The request is visible to everyone and it represents a game changer for the rhythm which Kubeflow will develop. It makes community growth a strategic objective and puts Kubeflow on a development fast track.

Today, I am happy to see the public release of Helm-Dashboard, Komodor’s second open-source project, after ValidKube, and my first since joining the team as Head of Open Source. It’s a compelling challenge to try and solve the pain points of Helm users, but more than anything it’s a labor of love. So it is with love that we’re now sharing this project with the community, and I’m excited to imagine where it will go from here.

The Bitbucket Cloud (BCLOUD) project is an invaluable source of customer-requested product features, enhancements, and suggestions. As Bitbucket Cloud has continued to grow, we’ve built up quite a backlog! To streamline the process, we recently implemented an in-product form as a replacement for manual issue submission. Entering feedback about Bitbucket Cloud is now easier than ever!

The #1 KPI is not how fast a developer codes, but rather how long it takes from the time a developer starts to work on a new feature till it gets to production. In this blog I’d like to describe a few concepts and present a real life example, where we utilized a chain of open source tools to automate the entire software development process, from code to production.

Nodejs tops the list of most widely used frameworks for server-side programming by developers. Powered by Google’s V8 engine, its performance is incredible. As a result, Nodejs has now become a critical part of the technology stack of large-scale enterprises and startups. And as nodejs is based on Javascript, it is also easier to learn and begin with. Nodejs is a dynamically typed single-threaded programming language.

Open source monitoring and observability tools can be found in production all over the world – whether they’re being used by startups or entire enterprise development teams. DevOps, ITOps, and other technical teams rely on tools like Prometheus, Grafana, OpenSearch, OpenTelemetry, Jaeger, Nagios, Zabbix, Graphite, InfluxDB, and others to monitor and troubleshoot their cloud environment.
