Install Terraform: Secure & Scalable IaC Setup Guide | Harness Blog

This comprehensive guide walks you through installing Terraform with a focus on security hardening and scalable infrastructure automation. You'll learn installation steps across platforms, configuration best practices, and how to set up Terraform for production-ready IaC deployments that grow with your organization's needs.

Engineer Cloud Cost Awareness: Why It Fails & Fixes | Harness Blog

Engineers often ignore cloud costs due to lack of visibility, misaligned incentives, and disconnected workflows. This guide explores the root causes and provides actionable strategies to embed cost awareness into engineering culture, including automation, real-time feedback, and FinOps best practices that make cost optimization a natural part of the development process.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Feature Flag Implementation in CI/CD Pipelines | Harness Blog

Engineering teams often deploy code much faster than they can safely release new features to users. This gap can create risks if releases skip testing, approvals, or gradual rollouts. Feature flags help by separating deployment from release, so you can ship code continuously and control which features users see through configuration.

Catch AI Agent Failures Before They Ship | Harness AI Evals

AI agent quality should not depend on manual checks. But for many teams shipping AI in production, agent failures are silent. The agent doesn't crash - it just gives confidently wrong answers, and your monitoring sees nothing wrong. Without automated guardrails, plausible-sounding wrong responses, hallucinations, and quality regressions reach customers before anyone notices.

Feature Flag Security in your CI/CD Pipeline | Harness Blog

Incorporating robust security measures into feature flag management is critical to protecting sensitive data and maintaining compliance. Harness FME security features, like remote evaluations in Thin SDKs and governed AI flag cleanup, let you practice security by design and standardize solid security practices across your teams.

DevOps Toolchain Explained: How to Build One That Actually Scales | Harness Blog

A DevOps toolchain that scales is the smallest unified stack with central governance and golden paths, not the longest list. 71% of teams say context-switching drains productivity; 73% of leaders report barely any teams have golden paths (Harness). AI coding speed stresses the after-code stages where DevOps toolchain sprawl creates the biggest governance gaps. Unified platforms keep governance, verification, and rollback consistent as AI raises code volume entering the pipeline.

Chaos Testing Just Got Easier | New ChaosHub & AI Prompt Library | Resilience Testing | Harness

In this video, we explore two major improvements to the Harness Resilience Testing documentation designed to help you build and manage chaos experiments more efficiently. What's new: ChaosHub Integration AI Prompt Library for Harness MCP These updates make it significantly easier to discover chaos experiments and leverage AI throughout your chaos engineering workflow. If you're using Harness Resilience Testing, this walkthrough will help you get started quickly and make the most of the new documentation experience.

Introducing AI Agent Deployment in Harness Continuous Delivery | Harness Blog

‍Teams building agents have converged on something that looks a lot like the software development lifecycle, but reshaped around a system whose output isn't deterministic: prototype an agent against a framework, evaluate it against a dataset of expected behavior, deploy it somewhere real, observe how it behaves against live traffic, and feed what you learn back into the next prototype. Call it the agent development lifecycle (Agent DLC).

Introducing Harness AgentTrace: An Observability and Guardrail Framework for AI Agents | Harness Blog

AI agents fail differently from the software we spent the last two decades learning to monitor. We hear some version of the same story from teams shipping agents to production: an agent starts producing wrong answers. Not obviously broken: confident, well-formatted, plausible wrong. The logs are clean, latency looks healthy, and error rates sit at zero. Nothing flags a problem. A user eventually does.
