This gets even more tricky when those integrations are over on-prem-only technologies, like MSMQ, that don’t integrate out-of-the-box with cloud alternatives like Azure Service Bus or Amazon SQS. Technically, this is all done over MSMQ where requests are processed and eventually granted or rejected, notifying other services of the outcome.

For Federal, State and Local agencies to take full advantage of the agility and responsiveness of a DevOps approach to the software lifecycle, Security must also play an integral role across lifecycle stages. Modern DevOps permits high velocity development cycles resulting in weekly, daily, or even hourly software releases.

Software today is not typically a single program—something that is executed by an operator or user, producing a result to that person—but rather a service : something that runs for the benefit of its consumers, a provider of value. Sadly, it is very common to write logic that deeply couples the notion of IO with the processing of that IO.

The building blocks of multi-tenancy are Linux namespaces , the very technology that makes LXC, Docker, and other kinds of containers possible. For example, the PID namespace makes it so that a process can only see PIDs in its own namespace, and therefore cannot send kill signals to random processes on the host.
