How to Create a Compliant Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for SoC and System Design

In the semiconductor world, “software" is more than just application code. It is a complex stack of firmware, bootloaders, microcode, drivers, and Board Support Packages (BSPs) that are intricately linked to the hardware being designed. To secure the supply chain, meet customer expectations, and maintain market access, semiconductor leaders need a dynamic, "living" SBOM strategy that assesses risk in real-time and provides a single source of truth for all teams to work from.

What Is MCP? Connecting AI Across the Software Delivery Lifecycle

AI promises speed and automation — but most teams are still stuck jumping between disconnected tools across development, testing, and operations. In this video, we introduce the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and how it enables AI assistants to securely access tools, systems, and real-time context across the software delivery lifecycle. MCP is the foundation of Perforce Intelligence, allowing AI to: The result: less friction, faster feedback, and AI that works with your existing systems — not around them.

What is an MCP? Breaking Down the Model Context Protocol

70% of teams are already integrating generative AI tools into their daily workflows, according to our 2025 State of Game Technology Report. Now more than ever, teams are looking to connect their AI tools to the services and applications they rely on to get work done. To address this issue, the industry has begun to standardize using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to connect their existing tools and LLMs like Claude, GPT, and Gemini.

Running Kafka in Kubernetes: What We Learned

Apache Kafka is mission-critical for many organizations—but where you deploy it matters just as much as how you use it. In this video, two OpenLogic experts discuss why they increasingly encourage customers to move their Kafka clusters to Kubernetes and utilize the Strimzi operator, and what that shift unlocks from an operational, scalability, and resilience standpoint.

Common Kafka Anti Patterns and How to Avoid Them

Kafka is powerful—but common Kafka mistakes can quietly undermine performance, reliability, and scalability. In this video, two OpenLogic experts break down the most frequent Kafka anti-patterns they see in real customer environments—and how to avoid them. Based on hands-on experience fixing production Kafka clusters, this discussion covers: If you’re running Apache Kafka in production—or planning to—this video will help you spot Kafka mistakes early and apply proven best practices to build a more stable, scalable event streaming platform.

Express Scripts by Evernorth Makes Data HIPAA-Compliant Overnight | Perforce Delphix

Express Scripts by Evernorth — a health services company serving 180 million members and processing 1.4 billion prescriptions annually — faced long lead times for HIPAA-compliant data. Its software engineering, data scientist, and machine learning teams needed fresh, readily available data, but the original system Express Script used took two weeks for its refresh masking cycle.

Inside Star Trek: Discovery's LED Volumes With PIXOMONDO

In this episode, Jase chats with Matthew Swanton, Virtual Production Unreal Engine Supervisor at PXO Clara who pulls back the curtain on what really happens when you're trying to deliver final pixels on a film set where every minute costs thousands of dollars. Here's what you'll learn: This isn't your typical "virtual production is magic" interview. It's the real story of innovation, collaboration, and scrappy solutions that make cutting-edge technology actually work in production.

Talk to Your Test Data: Improve Test Data Management with the Perforce Delphix MCP Server

Many technology leaders face a persistent bottleneck: delivering the right data to the right people at the right time. Despite significant investments in test data management and automation, developers often wait for database refreshes, compliance checks, and answers from infrastructure teams. These delays directly reduce development velocity. A recent shift has occurred in how developers work. AI agents, such as Claude Desktop and Cursor, are now essential coding tools.

Architectural Visualization with Unreal Engine: Trends, Challenges, and Workflows

Architectural visualization, or archviz, has shifted rapidly from static 2D renders to immersive 3D experiences that have transformed how architects, designers, and developers communicate their vision. Using this technology, a development team can “walk” clients through hyper-realistic replicas of an office headquarters or residential complex well before ground is ever broken.

What You Need to Know About PHP Certifications

In this video, Adam Culp, Manager of Professional Services at Perforce Zend, explains why validating your skills via a PHP certification can be an essential investment for modern developers and organizations. Earning a PHP certification (such as the Zend PHP Certification) can help ensure that you and your team are aligned with industry standards and capable of delivering reliable, high-quality code. The exam covers critical topics through PHP 8.4, including object-oriented programming, security, and error handling.

Continuous Integration Explained: How CI Streamlines Development

Software development is complex, but your workflow doesn't have to be. As teams grow and projects scale, it's important to manage the frequent integration of code changes from multiple developers into a shared source code repository. Modern DevOps practices, including Continuous Integration, become essential for maintaining speed without sacrificing quality. In this blog, we explain what is continuous integration (CI), how continuous integration works, and how to successfully implement it.

What is GDPR Compliance? A Quick Guide to Data Privacy and Regulations for Non-Prod

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is at the core of Europe’s digital privacy legislation. Adopted by the European Parliament in April 2016 and put into effect in May 2018, GDPR is a set of rules designed to give European Union (EU) citizens more control over their data. GDPR-compliant businesses are required to protect the personal data and privacy of EU citizens.
