Feed: Recent Announcements. Development teams collaborate on GitHub to share their code and commit changes quickly, but actually getting the code to run in the cloud is seen as a multi-step error-prone task. For containerized applications, a developer needs to build an image, publish it to a registry, create a ‘manifest’ type file describing the application for the orchestrator e.g. Task Definition or pod spec, deploy the manifest, run the task or pod, and finally check if the app is healthy. Developers want faster deployment times and to focus on their code velocity, not necessarily the details of how their ... Read More

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. I’ve been at dinners before with developers that admitted developers, themselves included, can be a bit opinionated. In one case one said for example, “I love Postgres, but I have no idea why.” They were sitting at the wrong table to use Postgres as an example… But it is quite often that I am asked Why Postgres.In fact a little over a year ago good friend Dimitri Fontaine asked if he could interview me for a book he’s working on for Postgres. I’ve long said their is a shortage of good books about Postgres and he’s done ... Read More

However, for multi-team scenarios, you might want to consolidate multiple teams into a single registry, limiting each team’s access to their specific repositories. Repository scoped RBAC now enables this functionality. Here are some of the scenarios where repository scoped permissions ... Read More
