  At long last, the way we build and deploy software is finally changing and significantly so. The days of the persnickety, prima donna build machine where monolithic applications were built, tested, and deployed are numbered. And that is a "Good Thing (tm)" - a consequence of how we will meet the transformation goals of our businesses. Modern applications consist of distributed services, often...

• Jenkins Javadoc: Service Improvements

  Jenkins infrastructure is continuously improving. The latest service to get some attention and major improvement is the Jenkins javadoc. There were a number of issues affecting that service: Irregular updates - Developers wouldn’t find the latest java documentation because of inadequate update frequency. Broken HTTPS support - when users would go to the Javadoc site they would get an unsafe site warning and then an incorrect...

  Anchore provides docker image analysis for user defined acceptance policies to allow automated image validation and acceptance. As developers we would like to know if a change we are proposing introduces a Common Vulnerability and Exposure (CVE). As operators we would like to know what running applications are affected if a new CVE is discovered. Now in Jenkins X pipelines, if we find an Anchore...

• Opinionated Kubernetes and Jenkins X

  I recently wrote about how all the cloud platforms are all in Kubernetes and so are developers. It is an exciting time, but the problem for many is that this is a huge blank sheet of paper for how to build and deploy applications. A white space, a void, a limitless canvas of possibilities. Insert metaphors here. The problem, as you may guess, is that few people...
