How to find and test critical dependencies with Gremlin

Feb 22, 2024 By Gremlin In Gremlin
Part of the Gremlin Office Hours series: A monthly deep dive with Gremlin experts. Pop quiz—what are all of the dependencies your services rely on? If you’re like most engineers, you probably struggled to come up with the answer. Modern applications are complex and rely on dozens (if not hundreds) of dependencies. Many teams rely on spreadsheets, but manual processes like these break down over time. What if you had a tool that found and tracked dependencies for you?

How to use host redundancy to improve service reliability and availability

Feb 22, 2024 By Andre Newman In Gremlin
Cloud computing has made provisioning new servers easy, fast, and relatively cheap. Almost anyone can log into a cloud console, spin up a new server, and deploy an application.

ArgoCD vs FluxCD vs Jenkins X - Battle of Declarative GitOps Tools

Feb 22, 2024 By Mickael Alliel, DevOps Tech Lead In Komodor
The need for automation is becoming more important day by day. The process of integrating written code with already working code and publishing new code to live environments is a very error-prone process. Performing static analysis, running tests, packaging, and versioning are tasks that require a lot of manual effort. It’s also a complex task to solve the problem of deploying the projects we develop to more than one environment, on more than one machine, without automation.
