{unscripted} IDP Knowledge Agent

We're making Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) more accessible with a natural language assistant. Developers can ask questions like, "What are the failing checks for my service's scorecard?" or "Who is the owner of a service?" to find metadata instantly. The agent also bridges the gap to action by suggesting and executing self-service workflows, like creating a new repo or onboarding a new engineer. It can even assist in generating new workflows, turning complex processes into simple conversational tasks.

{unscripted} AI for DevOps and DBDevOps

Many software engineers are experts in application code but not in the nuances of creating a production-ready delivery pipeline. Architect Mode acts as a seasoned DevOps expert, engaging the user in a conversation to design a pipeline that incorporates organizational best practices for security, quality, and compliance from the very beginning. It’s like having a personal DevOps architect as a partner.

{Unscripted} Autonomous Code Maintenance

Nothing drains developer productivity like codebase maintenance. The endless cycle of dependency upgrades, bug fixes, refactoring, and paying down technical debt is tedious, error-prone work that pulls engineers away from building new features. Harness Autonomous Code Maintenance (ACM) turns these manual chores into automated, intent-driven workflows. Developers can now state their intent in plain English, with prompts like, "Upgrade the front end from React 15.6 to 16.4". From there, the Harness AI agent drives the workflow.

API World 2025: Growth, Memories, and Next Steps

A couple of weeks ago, our team returned from API World. We’ve officially had a few weeks to decompress and get back into the swing of things after an incredible time at API World 2025. Looking back, the experience was even more rewarding than I had imagined in my Pre-API World blog. This year was especially memorable for me, as I had the opportunity to attend my first tech conference and travel across the country for work. I’m still buzzing from everything I learned and the people I met.

Streamline Software Delivery Right From Your IDE with Amazon Kiro and Harness

The integration of Amazon Kiro and Harness’s MCP server enables developers to manage, troubleshoot, and optimize CI/CD pipelines directly from their IDE using natural language, dramatically reducing manual effort and accelerating software delivery from code generation to production.

Harness GitOps: Scaling Argo CD with Enterprise-Grade Control

Harness GitOps extends Argo CD by preserving its reconciliation loop while adding governance, audit, and RBAC through the GitOps Agent’s secure connection to Harness SaaS. Teams can choose Harness-managed or bring-your-own Argo CD and scale to multi-cluster fleets with unified dashboards, promotion pipelines, and true rollback, while Git stays the single source of truth.

AI-Powered Chaos Engineering with Harness MCP Server and Cursor

The Harness MCP Server integration with Cursor transforms chaos engineering from a complex, specialized discipline into an accessible, conversational workflow that any developer can leverage directly within their AI-powered IDE. By combining natural language prompts with comprehensive resilience testing tools, teams can discover, execute, and analyze chaos experiments without vendor-specific expertise, democratizing system reliability across DevOps, QA, and SRE functions.

Building community-first brands ft. Edreece Arghandiwal, CMO & Co-Founder of Oakland Roots SC

In this special episode of The Confident Commit, Rob Zuber sits down with Edreece Arghandiwal, CMO and Co-Founder of Oakland Roots Soccer Club, for an inspiring conversation about building purpose-driven organizations from the ground up. Edreece shares how the Roots challenged traditional sports business models by putting community first, turning a simple question—"Why isn't there professional soccer in Oakland?"—into a movement that raised $3.5 million from 6,000+ community investors with zero paid advertising.

New in Flyway: Pre and post deployment scripts for state-based deployments via callbacks

Flyway provides a lot of flexibility for releasing database changes in a safe and repeatable manner. Earlier this year, we added the ability to automate state-based deployments. This means the structure of the database is defined in version control and Flyway handles updating a target database to match it. The Flyway comparison engine does all the hard work of identifying what’s different and creating a script that will run on the target database to alter it so it matches the latest state.

Deployment of AWS Step Functions with Lambda and CircleCI

In this guide, you will build and deploy a serverless data processing workflow using AWS Step Functions and AWS Lambda. This approach enables you to orchestrate discrete processing tasks in a scalable and cost-efficient way, leveraging the event-driven architecture that AWS offers. You will begin by creating individual Lambda functions that handle specific tasks in your data pipeline.
