JULY 6, 2022

IT admins can automate virtually any time-consuming task that requires regular application. IT automation, DevOps, and DevSecOps go together. The increased demand to get things done quickly often takes priority over taking the time to successfully automate IT operations. Testing automation can be painstaking.

Vulnerability assessment: key to protecting applications and infrastructure

Dynatrace

OCTOBER 13, 2021

Host analysis focuses on operating systems, virtual machines, and containers to understand if there are software components with known vulnerabilities that can be patched. These can include the configuration of operating system access controls and the use of unnecessary libraries or system services.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021

Unfortunately, container security is much more difficult to achieve than security for more traditional compute platforms, such as virtual machines or bare metal hosts. Four types of tools are commonly used to detect software vulnerabilities: Source-code tests that are used in development environments. Source code tests.

It’s easy to see why, with benefits such as better testing, easier deployment, faster performance, and more. A microservices approach enables DevOps teams to develop an application as a suite of small services. These teams typically use standardized tools and follow a sequential process to build, review, test, deliver, and deploy code.

Cloud Testing: How to overcome the challenges of testing on-premise?

Testsigma

JULY 3, 2021

If you’ve been performing on-premise testing in your organization, you know the rules already. But for the uninitiated, on-premise testing is a form of testing where testers perform tests on local machines, systems, or devices set up at an office. On-premise testing comes with a lot of responsibility.

MAY 31, 2021

Although Kubernetes simplifies application development while increasing resource utilization, it is a complex system that presents its own challenges. In particular, achieving observability across all containers controlled by Kubernetes can be laborious for even the most experienced DevOps teams. But what is Kubernetes exactly?

With this workflow, you can code and test changes immediately. Traditionally, you can test your code changes by rebuilding the Docker images (either locally or via your continuous integration pipeline), then pushing the image to a Docker registry after the successful build, and then redeploy to your Kubernetes cluster.

JULY 15, 2020

Almost one-third (29%) of respondents say their employers are migrating or implementing a majority of their systems (over 50%) using microservices. Most (74%) respondents say their teams own the build-test-deploy-maintain phases of the software lifecycle. Success with microservices means owning the software lifecycle.
