Red Hat OpenShift on Google Cloud Dedicated is designed to address several key pillars of digital sovereignty: data residency, technological autonomy, and supply chain resilience. With isolated infrastructure, it must comply with regulations such as the GDPR and regional sovereignty rules.
Almost a quarter of those surveyed said they had experienced a container-related security incident in the past year. The bottleneck is rarely in detecting vulnerabilities, but mainly in what happens next. Weeks or months can pass between the discovery of a problem and the actual implementation of a solution. During that period, applications continued to run with known risks, making organizations vulnerable, reports The Register.
A North American manufacturer spent most of 2024 and early 2025 doing what many innovative enterprises did: aggressively standardizing on the public cloud by using data lakes, analytics, CI/CD, and even a good chunk of ERP integration. The board liked the narrative because it sounded like simplification, and simplification sounded like savings. Then generative AI arrived, not as a lab toy but as a mandate. "Put copilots everywhere," leadership said. "Start with maintenance, then procurement, then the call center, then engineering change orders."
Industry professionals are realizing what's coming next, and it's well captured in a recent LinkedIn thread that says AI is moving on from being just a helper to a full-fledged co-developer - generating code, automating testing, managing whole workflows and even taking charge of every part of the CI/CD pipeline. Put simply, AI is transforming DevOps into a living ecosystem, one driven by close collaboration between human judgment and machine intelligence.
For years, reliability discussions have focused on uptime and whether a service met its internal SLO. However, as systems become more distributed, reliant on complex internet stacks, and integrated with AI, this binary perspective is no longer sufficient. Reliability now encompasses digital experience, speed, and business impact. For the second year in a row, The SRE Report highlights this shift.
Blue/green deployments on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) have long been a go-to pattern for shipping zero-downtime deployments. Historically, the recommended approach in the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) was to wire ECS to AWS CodeDeploy for traffic shifting, lifecycle hooks, and tight integration with AWS CodePipeline. In July 2025, Amazon ECS launched built-in blue/green deployments. This allows you to operate directly within the ECS service, without requiring the use of Amazon CodeDeploy.
Steve Yegge thinks he has the answer. The veteran engineer - 40+ years at Amazon, Google and Sourcegraph - spent the second half of 2025 building Gas Town, an open-source orchestration system that coordinates 20 to 30 Claude Code instances working in parallel on the same codebase. He describes it as "Kubernetes for AI coding agents." The comparison isn't just marketing. It's architecturally accurate.
The main advantage of going the Multi-Cloud way is that organizations can "put their eggs in different baskets" and be more versatile in their approach to how they do things. For example, they can mix it up and opt for a cloud-based Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution when it comes to the database, while going the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) route for their application endeavors.
The Harness Resilience Testing platform extends the scope of the tests provided to include application load and disaster recovery (DR) testing tools that will enable DevOps teams to further streamline workflows.
