Tracking Azure SQL changes with Azure Functions and CI/CD automation

Dec 9, 2025 By Terrence Aluda In CircleCI
Imagine being able to automatically detect when a high-value order is placed, then log it and notify your sales team – without manually accessing your app code. Azure SQL Trigger Functions make this possible. By automating the response to database changes as they happen, you can streamline operations, sync data, and power workflows in near real-time. Azure SQL Triggers, especially when combined with serverless functions, offers a powerful, low-maintenance way to respond to real-time data changes.

Getting started with Cursor and CircleCI: Adding AI to CI/CD workflows

Dec 8, 2025 By Roger Winter In CircleCI
AI coding assistants have transformed how developers write and debug code. But there’s a gap: these assistants often can’t see what’s happening in your CI/CD pipelines. When a build fails, you’re still stuck switching tabs, hunting through logs, and copying error messages back into your editor. What if your AI assistant could talk directly to CircleCI? In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to connect Cursor, an AI-powered code editor, to CircleCI using the CircleCI MCP server.

CI/CD for Cloudflare Pages using CircleCI and Wrangler

Dec 3, 2025 By Olususi Oluyemi In CircleCI
When building static websites with tools like Next.js, getting your content live should be just as seamless as writing it. But in practice, deployment can quickly become a manual chore, especially when testing, caching, and previews are involved. That’s why this guide shows you how to set up a CI/CD pipeline with CircleCI, Cloudflare Pages, and Wrangler. You will use the pipeline to deploy a static Next.js site only when your tests pass.

Get 97% faster feedback with Smarter Testing by CircleCI

Dec 1, 2025 By Vineet Antil In CircleCI
Fast feedback is the foundation of software delivery at scale. Long build and test cycles break developer focus, turning simple changes into momentum-killing pauses. Studies show that recovering from these interruptions can take twenty minutes or longer. Multiply that by dozens of commits per day and context‑switching time quickly turns into days of lost productivity.

End-to-End Testing for Microservices: A 2025 Guide

Nov 30, 2025 By Alin Dobra In Bunnyshell
End-to-end testing has always been a double-edged sword - even more so in the world of microservices. On one hand, E2E tests are critical for validating that all services work together seamlessly in real user flows. On the other hand, many experts warn that heavy reliance on end-to-end testing in a microservices architecture can create a "distributed monolith," slowing down deployments and undermining the very agility microservices promise. There's truth to that: if done poorly, E2E tests can become brittle, flaky, and a bottleneck that reduces your deployment frequency.

Instrument Jenkins With OpenTelemetry

Nov 27, 2025 By Anjali Udasi In Last9
You can instrument Jenkins with OpenTelemetry using the official plugin and an OpenTelemetry Collector, then send the data to a backend like Last9 to understand where pipeline latency and failures actually originate. Jenkins provides job status and console logs, but it doesn't show how time is distributed across stages, agents, plugins, and external systems. OpenTelemetry fills that gap by emitting traces, metrics, and logs in a standard format that any OTLP-compatible backend can process.
