A modern CMDB at the heart of automation

Oct 1, 2021 By Puppet In Puppet
The classic view we have on the CMDB is no longer sufficient. Having a static database of Configuration Items that is heavily guarded by a Change Management process, no longer suffices in a modern, agile, or cloud-native environment. A modern CMDB should be the heart of your automation journey, both being managed by your automation as well as feed information back to your platform via automation. This session will tackle how focusing your efforts on a good, lean CMDB with the necessary (automated) processes around it, can greatly increase your platforms growth, maintenance and agility.

Code-to-Cloud Visibility: An essential framework for DevOps success

Oct 1, 2021 By Puppet In Puppet
In DevOps we are used to talking about application velocity. But velocity without a framework is short lived and potentially creates more risk than benefit. Code-to-Cloud visibility is the practice of making sure engineering teams have visibility across the entire SDLC in depth and breadth. With code-to-cloud visibility organizations understand the impact of application development from feature definition to it running in production.

Achieving comprehensive security for the products delivered and deployed by organizations is becoming more difficult, due to a variety of factors. A key one is the growing volume, variety and complexity of software and connected devices in use. Another is the overwhelming risk of inherited software supply chain exposures. The result: Companies struggle every day to provide software with optimal security and protection against malicious activities, takeovers, data theft, and commercial sabotage.

Performing database tests on SQL databases

Sep 30, 2021 By Fikayo Adepoju In CircleCI

Testing is one of those activities that if not exhaustive will not have its complete impact on your software development process. Oftentimes developers are only concerned about testing the application layer of the system (a.k.a the codebase) and ignore testing the data layer (the database) which is also as important as testing the code itself.

Git vs SVN

Sep 30, 2021 By Tristan Lamb In GitKraken

If you’re writing or tracking code for a project you’ve likely heard of Version Control Systems, or VCS, also commonly referred to as source control. The primary function of a Version Control System is to host a project and track how it develops over time. With a VCS, developers can compare changes in files, track commits, propose changes, view project history, revert to old versions of the project, and more.
