JFrog Earns Microsoft Solutions Partner with Certified Software Designation for Azure

We’re excited to announce that JFrog has officially earned the Microsoft Solutions Partner with certified software designation for Azure. This status is granted to partners who complete a technical review audit for interoperability with Microsoft products and demonstrate a consistent track record of customer success.

Regression Testing: What it is, why it matters, and how to automate it with CI/CD

Regression testing is the practice of re-running existing tests after a code change to confirm that previously working functionality hasn’t broken. It answers a single question: did this change break something that used to work? In CI/CD pipelines, regression tests run automatically on every commit, giving teams immediate feedback before code reaches production.

Measuring Developer Productivity: Prove Impact | Harness Blog

The best engineering teams rely on data-driven frameworks like DORA metrics and SPACE to measure developer productivity and demonstrate business impact. This guide explores proven measurement approaches that move beyond vanity metrics to capture real engineering value and team performance. Your developer productivity initiative didn't collapse because the data was wrong. It stalled because it couldn't answer the business question. Leadership asked, "So what?".

Making Security Invisible for Game Developers

Security that developers never have to think about. That's the goal Audrey Long, Senior Gaming Cloud Security Architect at Microsoft Gaming Security, set out to achieve, and then actually built. In this GitKon session, Audrey walks through how Microsoft Gaming tackled a massive identity security challenge across double-digit Entra ID tenants spanning independent game studios. With no existing tooling that fit the pace of game development, her team built the Entra ID Tenant Security Scanner from scratch using the Maester Framework, custom PowerShell, and GitHub Actions.

Harness Artifact Registry: Your Unified OCI-Compliant Gateway for Secure Artifact Management | Harness Blog

If you've worked with builds and deployments, then you already know how central Docker images, dependencies, and containers are to modern software delivery. The introduction of Docker revolutionised how we package and run software, while the Open Container Initiative (OCI) brought much-needed standardisation to container formats and distribution. Docker made containers mainstream; OCI made them universal.

AI SRE in Practice: Enabling Non-Experts to Troubleshoot Kubernetes

Kubernetes troubleshooting traditionally requires deep platform expertise. Understanding pod lifecycle, decoding error messages, correlating events across resources, and identifying root cause all demand experience that takes years to build. This expertise gap creates a bottleneck where only senior engineers can handle production issues, limiting how quickly teams can resolve incidents.

How Gremlin makes disaster recovery testing easier and faster

There’s a common saying: “A backup isn’t a backup until you’ve tested it.” The same is true whether it’s a simple database failover or an entire data center/cloud provider failover. You simply won’t know if it works if you don’t test it. When it comes to disaster recovery testing, that can be an expensive, painful, and arduous process. But it’s required by companies for a reason. And not just for disasters like hurricanes, flooding, or earthquakes.

Beyond "Reactive" Accessibility: Meeting the 2026 ADA Title II Mandate in Higher Ed

For decades, digital accessibility in state-funded higher education has largely been a "reactive" game. If a student with a visual impairment reported an issue with a tuition portal, the university would scramble to provide an accommodation. As long as the institution could show "meaningful progress" toward compliance, it was generally shielded from significant legal repercussions. That era is officially ending. The U.S.

The post-mortem problem

Post-mortems are one of the most consistently underperforming rituals in software engineering. Most teams do them. Most teams know theirs aren't working. And most teams reach for the same diagnosis: the templates are too long, nobody has time, and nobody reads them anyway. These aren't wrong observations. But they're symptoms, not causes. The actual problem is that somewhere along the way, the post-mortem stopped being a piece of communication and became a compliance artifact.
