We understand how complex app distribution can be, especially when juggling multiple tools for mobile app testing and store releases. This is what prompted us to build Release Management back in 2022. Originally tightly coupled to Bitrise CI, we're excited to announce that Release Management can now be used with any CI tool. This means all mobile teams can use Release Management, and we're offering it with a generous free tier, regardless of their CI tool.

This article explores the best alternatives to traffic shadowing for conducting efficient load testing and refactoring. Traffic shadowing has been a popular technique, however, it’s not without its challenges and limitations. We delve into several innovative methods that promise to provide deeper insights, improved accuracy, and greater efficiency.

Effective monitoring is crucial for maintaining robust application performance, proactive issue detection, and efficient resource management. This guide covers ten essential monitoring best practices that developers and DevOps teams can use to improve observability and keep applications running smoothly. By following these practices, teams can ensure systems are resilient, secure, and provide a seamless user experience.

Developer productivity is ultimately a measure of the efficiency and effectiveness with which software developers produce high-quality code and complete projects. Where this becomes a bit more complicated is in the relationships between those efforts and the measurements that reflect them.

Developer Experience (DevEx) is a general term that encompasses all of the interactions a developer has with their work environment. The tools that a developer uses, the processes they employ, and even the organizational culture, all play a role in establishing a great Developer Experience – or, unfortunately, a bad one.

Kubernetes has revolutionized how modern applications are built, deployed, and scaled. However, due to its complexity, managing a Kubernetes development environment can sometimes feel overwhelming for developers. Utilizing a cloud environment can simplify Kubernetes development by providing better scalability, manageability of dependencies, and a more consistent development experience across various cloud providers.

‍ They started in awe, which soon turned into desperation to keep up, and it is only now that we have started realizing the utility and business value of our Artificial Intelligence (AI) goals. I like this stage of our industrial revolution, where we are no longer expecting magic from AI but are integrating it nevertheless for all the wonders it can still do for our businesses. This was the same space where our DevOps efforts started yielding enterprise-level transformations.

Traffic replay is a valuable technique for capturing and analyzing network interactions, providing essential insights into user behavior and website performance. Utilizing existing traffic enhances software testing accuracy, allowing for more realistic application testing and ensuring that various environmental factors do not lead to unnoticed errors.
