After a focused period of design and development, the new Cloudsmith web app is now available to all customers at app.cloudsmith.com. The new web app replaces the existing cloudsmith.io, which will be fully decommissioned in June 2025.

As Kubernetes continues to dominate the container orchestration space, the need for robust CI/CD tools to streamline deployment workflows is greater than ever. With a plethora of options available, choosing the right CI/CD platform can significantly impact the efficiency and scalability of your DevOps pipeline. In this blog, we’ll explore the top Kubernetes CI/CD tools in 2025 and why RazorOps is a standout choice.

As a DevOps practitioner with over a decades of experience, I have witnessed the evolution of this domain from its nascent stages to becoming a critical aspect of modern software delivery. As we look forward to 2025, the DevOps ecosystem is poised for significant transformation, driven by technological advancements, organizational shifts, and the growing complexity of software systems. Here are the top 50 trends that I believe will shape the future of DevOps in 2025.

Harness.io is one of today’s most popular platforms for automating continuous delivery (CD). The platform enables engineers to build CD pipelines (Harness Smart Automation) rapidly, automatically verify code changes to reduce rollbacks (Harness Continuous Verification), and deliver enterprise-grade security (Harness Continuous Security) for teams of all sizes. With Harness Cost Management, you can even optimize your AWS cloud costs.

We can all agree that visibility into resource usage is crucial for optimizing performance and managing costs to drive your business — especially in today’s cloud-driven world. MyJFrog is a comprehensive management portal for overseeing JFrog cloud platform instances and subscriptions. It provides a centralized control tower to manage and monitor subscriptions, resources, and usage.

Last year, Bitbucket Cloud introduced custom merge checks. This advanced feature allowed users to go beyond Bitbucket’s built-in branch restrictions and create customized merge criteria for pull requests. Now, we’re expanding this feature to better support large organizations with many repositories. As organizations scale, manually configuring checks at the repository level becomes tedious and prone to inconsistency.

CI/CD workflows are essential for modern software development, enabling scalability, seamless integration, and ease of workflow management. However, migrating these workflows between tools—such as from Jenkins to Bitbucket Pipelines—can feel daunting due to differences in syntax, custom configurations, and repository-specific setups. To address these challenges, we’re thrilled to announce the Jenkins to Bitbucket Pipelines Migration Tool.

ManageEngine OpManager now integrates with Ansible to bring advanced automation capabilities directly to your network management toolkit. This integration allows IT teams to automate critical tasks, streamline configurations, and resolve performance issues with ease, all from a single, unified platform. By leveraging Ansible’s robust automation features within OpManager, you can reduce manual efforts, minimize downtime, and ensure your network runs at peak efficiency.

We recently spoke with customers who want all the advantages and benefits of being standardized on the Atlassian platform with Bitbucket, with an integrated experience across planning, source control, CI/CD, and beyond, while still being able to take advantage of using GitHub Copilot. In this blog, we’re excited to demonstrate how easy it is to use GitHub Copilot alongside your Bitbucket repos.

As containerized environments evolve, effective artifact management is crucial for any organization using Kubernetes or similar ecosystems. Cloudsmith’s container registry now fully complies with the Open Container Initiative (OCI) distribution specification, allowing customers to store, secure, and distribute images and artifacts with greater efficiency.
