We’re excited to announce that we are starting a phased rollout of Rovo Chat in Bitbucket Cloud today! It will be available to 100% of users by September 30th, 2025. To check if it’s available on your account, look for the Rovo Chat button in your top navigation. Rovo is Atlassian’s AI-powered teammate that helps you find what matters, learn faster, and take action right in your workflow.

The software development landscape has fundamentally shifted. Teams are shipping more value faster than ever, leveraging AI to generate code at unprecedented speed. But with this velocity comes equally dramatic complexity — small teams now face challenges that once belonged only to large organizations, while large organizations grapple with codebases that strain human comprehension. This complexity isn’t a bug — it’s a productivity opportunity to embrace.

Discover how SCION is transforming internet routing, and how Anapaya and Megaport Virtual Edge are simplifying its adoption. Enterprise internet routing is anything but simple. With distributed endpoints, data security, and service reliability to consider, it doesn’t take long for network teams to feel overwhelmed with a complicated mess of workarounds and add-ons that become increasingly difficult to oversee and manage.

In today’s small and medium-sized UK businesses, most of the cybersecurity budget goes into protecting data and strengthening authentication. Those are important measures – the cost of a data breach is still enough to close your firm, after all. But they aren’t enough. Because in 2025, thanks to increased capabilities of DDoS attacks, you don’t have to lose your data to lose your business– you just have to lose access to it.

The least exciting part of an operations or SRE role is often the manual, repetitive task of generating reports. It’s the Monday morning scramble to summarize weekly infrastructure health for the team, or the end-of-quarter push to build a capacity planning document. This is boilerplate work that pulls you away from critical engineering tasks. We believe that if a process is repeatable, it should be automated. That’s why we’re introducing Scheduled AI Investigations and Insights.

Microservices make it tough to understand how applications behave end-to-end. Most teams already rely on an Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tool to track system health. But as requests move across many services, you also need distributed tracing. Jaeger gives you that visibility. The real value comes from connecting the two. Instead of running APM and Jaeger in silos, you can combine their strengths, metrics from your APM, and traces from Jaeger, to get a clearer view of performance.

If you manage Kubernetes at scale with Rancher, you know that UI performance is not just a “nice-to-have”—it’s crucial for productivity. The Rancher team is on a continuous journey to enhance our platform’s ability to handle increasingly complex environments. In this post take a deep dive into an exciting, evolving improvement we’ve been developing: a project codenamed “Vai” (also called UI Server-Side Pagination or SQLite-backed caching).
