The Cloud Reset: DevOps Brings Workloads Back to Private Clouds
DevOps teams are leading a “cloud reset,” moving workloads from public to private clouds for greater control, security and cost predictability. As organizations mature beyond cloud-first strategies, hybrid and private cloud environments are becoming the foundation for smarter, more accountable DevOps operations.
Five Great DevOps Job Opportunities
Moving career? The DevOps job opportunities highlighted this week include roles at Viasat, CTG, Dell Technologies and OpenAI.
Infrastructure as Code, Security Blind Spots, and the Messy Reality of DevOps
I’ve spent most of my career in infrastructure and reliability engineering, from years as an SRE at Google to leading teams at Facebook and now building Spacelift. Along the way, I’ve watched entire paradigms rise and fall, seen technologies mature, and learned some hard lessons about where DevOps and security meet—and where they clash. The […]
Beyond the Platform: How Enterprises Can Unify Their DevOps Toolchains for Better Governance and AI Readiness
For over a decade, the core mission of enterprise IT has been to accelerate innovation. This drive has led to a fundamental shift in how software is built, favoring team autonomy and the freedom to choose the best tools for the job. Whether it’s a specific CI/CD pipeline, a new testing framework, or a specialized […]

New York, USA, New York, 15th October 2025, CyberNewsWire
Secure By Design, Secure by Default
“Shift left” alone won’t secure software. Real security must be embedded continuously across design, development, and production—not just moved earlier.
When Metrics Overwhelm: How SREs Help Engineers Reclaim Focus
Observability promised insight but delivered alert fatigue. Learn how SREs are redefining observability to empower developers and restore real engineering value.
Gemini CLI Extensions Bring Customization to the Command Line
Google’s Gemini CLI extensions framework enables developers to integrate external tools like Figma, Stripe, Postman, and Dynatrace directly within the terminal. Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the system reduces context switching and boosts DevOps productivity through AI automation.
Survey Surfaces Lots of Room for Software Engineering Improvement
A survey of 600 software engineers and 600 senior technology leaders across the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and France finds that nearly three quarters of software engineers say demands on their time make it difficult for them to build new features. Conducted by Chainguard, a provider of repositories for accessing secure container images, the […]
