Using your cluster’s OIDC provider simplifies cross-account permissions compared to the older, chained AssumeRole method. We hope our example of applying this in an AWS GovCloud scenario helps with your own projects.

Learn to spot the signs of a broken build - delays, brittle workflows, and hidden friction - and discover three principles to turn your build into a first-class citizen in your toolchain.

E-commerce moves fast—your teams need to keep up. That’s where DevOps and developer experience come in! These two areas are crucial for streamlining the development process and delivering high-quality applications at warp speed.

CI/CD systems like Jenkins/Github Actions/Gitlab CI need permissions to access other systems they need to act on such as cloud providers, k8s, and others. A popular and straightforward solution for this problem is using long lived credentials. While this approach is convenient, it also presents a security risk. Most teams set and forget these credentials without ever rotating them. If a secret is leaked, an attacker can gain access to your production infrastructure.

If you’re in the e-commerce or retail industry and you’re looking to build fast, scalable, and secure applications, containerization is definitely worth considering. With the ability to quickly scale applications, improve security and reliability, adopt an agile development process, and reduce infrastructure costs, containerization is a tech trend you won’t want to miss out on.

Have you heard of this new Internet of Things (IoT)? It’s a game-changing technology that allows retailers to connect with customers like never before. By using IoT devices, retailers can gather data on customer behavior, optimize store layouts, and create personalized shopping experiences that drive sales and loyalty.
