Build on Apple silicon with M1 support for CI/CD pipelines

Apple developers across the globe leverage CircleCI’s vast selection of macOS resources to swiftly build, test, and deploy software. Today, CircleCI introduced its first M1 resource to provide customers with record-breaking build speed that will bring their software delivery to the next level.

Deploy autoscaling self-hosted runners using AWS CDK

You can use CircleCI’s cloud resources to run your CI/CD jobs, but there may be times you want to run them on your infrastructure. If your team imposes privileged access and control requirements, a self-hosted infrastructure might be best for running your jobs. CircleCI’s self-hosted runners lets you do exactly that. It is easy to get started and start using self-hosted runners.

Continuous deployment of a Dockerized .NET Core app to AWS ECR

Containers are a useful tool for deploying applications because they allow for the packaging of an application’s code, libraries, and dependencies into a single, isolated unit. This makes it easy to deploy and run the application on any computer or server that has the necessary container software installed.

DevOps isn't dead: How platform engineering enables DevOps at scale

DevOps has become the de facto methodology in software development. With it, software engineers can take operations into their own hands, using techniques such as Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to automate infrastructure deployment. However, as the popularity of DevOps has grown, so has the complexity of modern application development. Developers must learn new tools and maintain infrastructure while coding and prioritizing ops tasks alongside feature development.

New CircleCI features for secure secrets management

When security incidents happen, it’s crucial for software providers and users alike to take swift and effective action. In response to our recent security incident, we witnessed firsthand how an open and collaborative effort between our customers, technology partners, and engineering teams helped to contain the threat and mitigate risk of unauthorized access to customer systems.

Integrate CircleCI with HashiCorp Vault using OIDC

Well-designed secrets management is a delicate balancing act between security and usability. Secrets must be easily accessible to the right users when building and deploying, but they must also at the same time be well-secured and easy to rotate. This article will cover how to thread this needle by integrating CircleCI with HashiCorp Vault and retrieving secrets using short-lived OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication tokens.

CircleCI onboarding toolkit: User-friendly tools to help you ship sooner

Continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) optimizes team development flows by automating build, test, and deployment processes to ensure fast and reliable delivery of high-quality software. Adopting best-in-class CI/CD tooling is one of the best investments your organization can make to shorten delivery cycles, eliminate painful manual processes, and keep infrastructure costs in check.
