Akrites, a new Linux Foundation initiative backed by many of the world’s largest tech and financial firms, is the industry’s latest attempt to get ahead of AI‑accelerated software supply chain risks by hardening critical open source projects before attackers can exploit them. On June 25, the Linux Foundation unveiled Akrites, a coordinated industry program designed […]

With AI, teams across organizations are now building internal applications faster than ever, often pulling in open source libraries and frameworks without much thought about long-term support, lifecycle management, or security ownership. An unintended consequence of this is that unsupported open source software (OSS) is quietly spreading across environments faster than security and engineering…

Qodo this week extended its platform for managing code quality and governance to enable an artificial intelligence (AI) agent to review code spanning multiple repositories. Additionally, version 2.8 of the Qodo platform adds a custom rules miner that discovers coding patterns from existing codebase behavior and pull request (PR) history that are then used to […]

Microsoft has moved the Azure SDK for Rust out of beta and into general availability, giving Rust developers a stable, production-ready way to connect to core Azure services. The release covers Core, Identity, Key Vault (Secrets, Keys, and Certificates), and Storage (Blobs and Queues), built around the same design patterns already used in the .NET, Java, JavaScript, Python, Go, and C++ SDKs.

Most organizations running CRM platforms eventually face the same challenge: how to deploy changes safely, consistently, and quickly. While Salesforce and Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (CE) support modern DevOps practices, they approach application lifecycle management differently. Understanding these differences can help teams design more effective deployment pipelines and avoid common…

The newly appointed CEO of CloudBees, Mo Plassnig, says that as the agentic artificial intelligence (AI) era dawns, the time has come to reinvent software engineering in a way that moves beyond human-centric tooling. Plassnig, who earlier this month succeeded Anuj Kapur, joins CloudBees from Immuta, a provider of a data security and governance platform, […]

CData launches Connect AI Developer Edition, a free Python SDK, and CLI to give developers governed enterprise data access across Salesforce, Snowflake, and hundreds of other systems.

GitHub is closing the book on the free preview period for one of its most widely adopted recent features. More than 10,000 enterprises used the GitHub Code Quality public preview to detect maintainability and reliability issues, enforce quality gates, and track code coverage. Starting July 20, 2026, that free ride ends. Code Quality becomes a […]

Homebrew, the unofficial but default package manager for many Apple Mac users, now has safeguards to prevent supply-chain attacks. The approach mimics how GitHub just fortified npm against attacks by establishing a set of trusted repositories to download from. “The Homebrew team is aware of the supply-side security issues with other package managers. We’ve taken […]

Before they were everywhere, developers spent ages stitching systems together, one by one. APIs changed everything. MCP wants to do the same for AI.

Value Stream Mapping (VSM) has re-emerged as the connective tissue that unifies product management, operations and architecture.

NVIDIA's SpatialClaw uses code, not tool calls, to boost AI spatial reasoning by 11.2 points across 20 benchmarks and six model sizes.

Anthropic adds live, shareable Artifacts to Claude Code, allowing teams to view AI coding sessions as real-time, interactive pages.

Most organizations that have invested heavily in Agile and DevOps share a puzzling experience. Deployment frequency is up. Teams are busy. Dashboards are green. And yet value still queues. Strategy still takes months to reach the customer. Feedback still arrives too late to change anything important. Flow coach Marnus Marx has a name for this […]

Ultimately, it’s up to developers to decide what to take from this RAMpocalypse. But if they choose to embrace the lessons it’s teaching us about optimisation and embed it as a core discipline with teams, they could reap the rewards.

As adoption of agentic AI accelerates, with limited human participation, the question has shifted from how fast teams can ship software to what was shipped, why it changed, what influenced those decisions along the way. Also of concern is whether compliance and security requirements have been met. This is why governance designed for an AI-driven […]

GitHub is retiring GitHub Models, closing it to new customers. Existing users can continue for now; Azure AI Foundry is the path forward.

If you maintain an OSS (Open Source Software) project, audit your contribution workflow this week. Could a new contributor add a language without asking basic questions? If not, the next merge is not blocked by translators. It is constrained by the project’s current design.

AI-generated infrastructure code is arriving faster than most organizations can absorb it. The organizations that invested in platform quality first are the ones pulling ahead. Every few years, someone declares that Infrastructure as Code is dead. The arguments tend to “sidecar” the hype cycle. First, complexity, then containers, then Kubernetes, then serverless. Now it’s AI’s […]

Amazon Web Services (AWS) this week made available, via an early access program, an iOS application through which application developers can start sessions and approve changes made by the Kiro AI coding tool the cloud service provider created. Announced at the AWS New York Summit, the iOS application provides all the management capabilities provided by […]

Microsoft has reportedly begun using Amazon Web Services to provide additional computing capacity for GitHub as a dramatic rise in AI-assisted software development places unprecedented demands on the coding platform.

I’ve lived through five major technology shifts: mainframe to Windows in the early ‘90s, internet computing in the late ‘90s and early 2000s, Agile in the mid-2000s, cloud through the 2010s, and now AI. You learn things by surviving that many. You learn that vendors oversell. That leadership wants results yesterday. That the breathless predictions […]
