Cycloid this week unveiled a tool that makes it possible to reverse engineer code used to manually provision cloud infrastructure. The Infra Import tool is part of an effort to create a more consistent and reliable version of that code using open source Terraform software. Benjamin Brial, Cycloid CEO, said Infra Import is based on […]
Fugue Aims to Simplify Securing Infrastructure-as-Code
Fugue today unveiled a 1.0 release for Regula, an open source policy engine for infrastructure-as-code (IaC) security that comes with prebuilt libraries for implementing hundreds of policies that validate configurations on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud services.

EP 9: The Road to GitOps
GitOps takes DevOps best practices for development and applies them to infrastructure automation. In short, GitOps delivers a hermetic, immutable deployment. So, is GitOps replacing DevOps?

IaC and Kubernetes: A Natural Pairing
Using IaC with Kubernetes helps standardize Kubernetes cluster configuration and manage add-ons Infrastructure as code (IaC) is the ability to provision and manage infrastructure using a configuration language. It offers repeatability, transparency and the application of modern software development practices to the management of infrastructure including networks, load balancers, virtual machines, Kubernetes clusters and monitoring. […]
5 Capabilities Network Infrastructure Must Have to Support DevOps
According to the Accelerate 2019 State of DevOps report, high-performing DevOps organizations achieve over 200 times more frequent deployments and over 2,600 times faster recovery times than low performers. These outcomes have been realized by both forward-leaning organizations such as Amazon, which deploys code every 11.6 seconds, and more traditional enterprises that have been in […]
Accurics Makes Infrastructure as Code More Secure
Fresh off raising $5 million in funding, Accurics today launched a platform that analyzes the code employed to manage infrastructure as code for vulnerabilities as well as indicators of drift to create a threat model for cloud application workloads and then, if necessary, automatically roll back cloud settings to their last known approved state. Accurics CEO […]
Comparing Three Approaches to Multi-Cloud Security Management
Moving to a multi-cloud environment can bring many advantages, but it also brings huge challenges in managing both the everyday operations and security of multi-cloud infrastructures. To meet these challenges, several approaches to multi-cloud management have arisen. The most common can be roughly grouped into three categories: Cloud Management Platforms (CMPs), Infrastructure as Code (IaC) […]
Infrastructure as Code and Six Key Automation Concepts
This summer, I walked into an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) flame war because I was blissfully unaware of just how broadly IaC had been reinterpreted. Reviewing the comments, it’s clear that thinking has evolved since Kief Morris’ 2016 Infrastructure as Code tomb. So, after strapping on my asbestos suit, I decided to dig into what […]
Why Your Test Automation Is Failing
If you have been investing in test automation, but it’s not getting you where you think it should, it could be that you approached it superficially. One of the most common issues is that the test part of test automation is rather straightforward to automate, especially with today’s abundance of great automation tools. But jumping […]
