How to Plan a Successful CI/CD Migration Without Disrupting Developers | Harness Blog
Modern engineering teams run on CI/CD. It’s where pull requests get validated, artifacts get produced, and releases get promoted to production. That also makes CI/CD migration very risky because you're not just moving a "tool"; you're moving the workflow that developers use dozens or hundreds of times a day. The good news: disruption is optional.
Confident Commit | Loïc Houssier
Most engineering roadmaps are built around certainty, but that model is beginning to break down. When the way people interact with software is changing this quickly, exploration stops being a side project and starts becoming the day-to-day.
CI/CD best practices | Harness Blog
Modern software teams are under constant pressure to ship faster without breaking production. That’s why CI/CD best practices have become essential for high-performing DevOps organizations. Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) help automate builds, testing, and deployments — but simply installing a pipeline tool isn’t enough. Without the right practices, pipelines become slow, flaky, and difficult to govern.
Deployment strategies: Types, trade-offs, and how to choose
A deployment strategy is the method a team uses to move new code into a production environment. It determines how traffic shifts between versions, how much risk each release represents, and how quickly the team can roll back when something breaks. The choice isn’t academic: a mismatch between strategy and system can mean downtime, failed rollouts, or hours of manual recovery.
Rolling Deployments Explained: Seamless Software Delivery
In this video, Eric Minick from Harness explains the fundamentals of rolling deployments and how they help maintain a seamless user experience during software updates. Key topics covered include: Whether you are looking for simple implementation or consistent application uptime, rolling deployments offer a powerful strategy for modern software delivery.

Code Coverage: Measure, Improve, and Scale Quality in CI | Harness Blog
Most engineering teams know the difference between “we have tests” and “we know we’re well-tested.” Your CI builds may be green, but without code coverage, it’s hard to prove how much of your code is actually exercised by automated tests. Code coverage measures what percentage of your code runs during tests (lines, branches, and functions), and when you wire it into CI gates, it becomes an enforceable quality signal and not a vanity metric.
How AI-native teams actually ship faster
The teams succeeding with AI changed how they validate code: machines verify correctness, validation runs in parallel, and senior engineers focus on risk.
Intelligent Caching for CI/CD Build Optimization | Harness Blog
We've all been there. You push a PR, grab coffee, check Slack, maybe start a side conversation — and your build is still running. Multiply that across a team of 50 engineers, and you're looking at hours of lost focus every single day. Slow CI/CD builds don't just waste time. They generate a steady stream of "CI is slow" tickets that eat into your platform team's roadmap. Intelligent caching is one of the fastest ways to break that cycle.
