CircleCI jobs can use OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity tokens to securely access cloud providers without having to store a static credential in CircleCI. This article describes how to access Azure resources using OpenID Connect (OIDC).

This week, we announced that Cloudsmith has taken an impressive $11M in additional funding, hot on the heels of our $15M Series A two years ago. That's not just serious cash for a startup; it's a game-changer! The natural questions are: why did we take it, and what's our big-picture plan?

DevOps isn’t just a methodology; it’s a culture that fosters collaboration, automation, and continuous improvement within an organization. Conducting a successful DevOps assessment is crucial for understanding where your team stands in its DevOps journey and identifying areas for enhancement. To ensure a comprehensive evaluation, focus on these four pillars.

CI/CD services such as AWS CodePipeline enable developers to automate and accelerate the process of building, testing, and deploying code. But with the speed, scale, and complexity of the modern software development life cycle, even small performance regressions or increases in failure rates in your CI system can quickly snowball, slowing or even halting releases and causing cost overruns.

This tutorial guides you on how to use the Amazon SageMaker Orb to orchestrate model deployment to endpoints across different environments. It also shows how to use the CircleCI platform to monitor and manage promotions and rollbacks. It will use an example project repository to walk you through every step, from training a new model package version to deploying your model across multiple environments.

Software development begins with code, which is then integrated, compiled, tested, and in the end distributed to users. This is often the secret sauce of innovation that organizations must protect to keep their competitive edge. With the software application development market growing at almost 30% per year and the average project taking just 4-6 months to complete – and trending downwards – the result is more software to develop and constant pressure to release it as fast as possible.

Containers and Kubernetes has become the cornerstone of modern DevOps practices. As organizations strive for agility, scalability, and seamless collaboration between development and operations teams, the adoption of Containers and Kubernetes has emerged as a transformative force. This blog explores the pivotal role these technologies play in the DevOps journey, unlocking new possibilities and efficiencies for software delivery.

Microsoft Azure provides an all-encompassing service that allows you to host Docker containers on the Azure Container Registry (ACR), deploy to a production-ready Kubernetes cluster via the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), and more. Using CircleCI, you can automatically deploy updates to your application, providing a safer and more efficient CI/CD process for managing your software. This article shows you how to automate deployments for a.Net application to Azure Kubernetes.

Observability isn’t just about watching for errors or monitoring for basic health signals. Instead, it goes deeper so you can understand the “why” behind the behaviors within your system. CI/CD observability plays a key part in that. It’s about gaining an in-depth view of the entire pipeline of your continuous integration and deployment systems — looking at every code check-in, every test, every build, and every deployment.
