As 2021 draws to a close and all the industry commentators make their predictions for the coming year - the continued and dizzying growth of cloud services is high on the agenda. In this blog, we take a deeper look at how businesses are utilising the cloud and what impact this is having on global IT spend…

We’re excited to share what’s new and improved in the v8.2 release of GitKraken Client. Even solo superheroes will benefit from Workspaces but we’ve made a lot of updates designed for Teams to get the most out of Git. So assemble your team and get ready to tackle even the largest projects in Git. Keep reading this article or watch the video below to see what’s new! We just can’t stop improving productivity with Git.

With all the hustle and bustle of hospitals, hard-working staff, and extensive cutting-edge equipment, we often forget about the invisible infrastructure that underpins our healthcare institutions. They all rely on the backbone of databases, and quick access to the data housed within them, to ensure systems at the front-end run seamlessly.

This post will be updated over the next several days. Recently, a Remote Code Execution vulnerability was discovered in the Apache Log4J library. This vulnerability, which is tracked in CVE-2021-44228, dubbed Log4Shell, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems. While HAProxy Enterprise, HAProxy ALOHA, and other products within the HAProxy Technologies portfolio are not impacted by this (they do not use the Log4J library at all), you can use them to block the attack.

Modern applications come in a variety of forms–monoliths, microservices, serverless functions, and containers to name a few–but at the heart of all of these are processes. Processes are the fundamental unit of execution that we use to run programs, and although we need processes to run our applications, software engineers rarely think about them.

Last Thursday, a researcher from the Alibaba Cloud Security Team dropped a zero-day remote code execution exploit on Twitter, targeting the extremely popular log4j logging framework for Java (specifically, the 2.x branch called Log4j2). The vulnerability was originally discovered and reported to Apache by the Alibaba cloud security team on November 24th. MITRE assigned CVE-2021-44228 to this vulnerability, which has since been dubbed Log4Shell by security researchers.

We’re excited to share with you that we have launched a completely new way to start using the JFrog DevOps Platform that you – as a developer – will love. We’ve provided a super-easy, developer-friendly path to discovering how Artifactory and Xray can help you produce safer apps, faster, getting started through the command line shell and IDE that you use every day.
