What Does Load Testing Measure? (Top 5 Performance Metrics) | Resilience Testing | Harness

Before you deploy, you need to know if your application can handle real-world traffic. In this video, we break down the 5 essential load testing metrics: Response Time (latency), Throughput (requests per second), Error Rates (system stability), Resource Utilization (CPU/Memory bottlenecks), and User Concurrency. Whether you're into Software Engineering, DevOps, or SRE, understanding these System Design fundamentals is the only way to prevent server crashes and ensure Software Scalability.

The Complete Guide to Feature Testing for Modern DevOps Teams | Harness Blog

Today’s teams are challenged to ship fast without breaking things. Traditional deployment strategies tie every code change directly to user exposure, forcing teams to trade velocity for safety and live with stressful, all-or-nothing releases. Feature testing changes that. In modern DevOps, you don't have to cross your fingers during a big-bang rollout.

7 Types of Load Testing Explained: Load, Stress, Spike, Soak & More | Harness

Discover the 7 most important types of load testing that every developer, DevOps engineer, and QA team should know in 2026. Whether you're building scalable applications, preparing for traffic surges, or ensuring system reliability, understanding these load testing types is essential for modern software performance testing. In this quick video from Harness, we break down.

A/B Testing Tools: The CTO's Guide to Safe and Measurable Change | Harness Blog

Picture this: It's 2 a.m. Your phone is buzzing. A new feature just went out to your entire user base, and conversion rates are tanking. Your on-call engineer is digging through logs, your Slack channels are on fire, and you’re left wondering, Why didn't we just test this first? Every CTO has a version of this story. And most of them have quietly vowed never to repeat it.

Women in Tech: Journeys, Grit, and the Future We're Building | Harness Blog

Technology evolves rapidly — but progress in tech isn’t driven by tools alone. It’s driven by people. By curiosity. By courage. By individuals who choose to step into complex systems and shape how they function. As an engineering leader driving application and API security, I have always believed that our industry is at its best when complex concepts are made accessible and practical for everyone.

Cloud Cost Visibility at Scale: Why It Fails & How to Fix It | Harness Blog

Why does your cloud cost visibility break down the moment someone spins up a Kubernetes cluster in a new region without telling anyone? You get the alert three weeks later when the bill arrives — and by then, nobody remembers which experiment justified the spend, or which team should own it. This scenario repeats constantly across platform teams managing multi-cloud environments at scale. Cloud cost visibility works fine when you have five services and one AWS account.

From Rollouts to Results: Unlocking the Value of Feature Management and Experimentation

Recorded at @DevOpsLive In today’s fast-paced software landscape, releasing new features is no longer just about speed - it’s about control, confidence, and measurable impact. Combining Feature Flag Management and Experimentation enables teams to deliver innovation safely, experiment in real time, and understand what truly resonates with users. Whether you’re scaling a platform, launching a new product, or simply looking to innovate faster, FME offers a proven way to ship with confidence and learn continuously from your users.

AI for Everything After Code: Ship Fast, Stay Safe

Recorded at @DevOpsLive Most teams have “done DevOps” and “built a platform,” but still wrestle with the same core problems: platforms that developers dodge, AI that accelerates coding while quietly degrading delivery performance, security and compliance that can’t keep up, cloud bills that keep climbing, and incident response that hasn’t caught up with cloud‑native complexity.

Why Release Management Is Broken and How to Fix It

Are you tired of slow, expensive, and ineffective Change Advisory Board (CAB) meetings? In this video, Eric Minick from Harness explores the evolution of release management and how to transition from traditional manual approvals to a streamlined, automated DevOps approach. What You'll Learn: Whether you are a release manager or a DevOps engineer, learn how to build a reliable audit trail while accelerating your software delivery.

AI vs. Hype: Redefining Engineering Excellence with Ron Miller

In this episode of "ShipTalk: Engineering Excellence," host Thomas Dockstader sits down with Ron Miller, editor at Fast Forward, to discuss the real-world impact of AI on software development. They dive deep into the maturity of AI-driven code, the rise of the "citizen developer," and why traditional writing and communication skills are becoming the new must-have for modern engineers.
