As the number of nodes or machines managing containers in production increases, so does the need for container orchestration tools. As the size of deployments increase, tooling decisions become more important. As we wrote about last week, Kubernetes and HashiCorp see the largest uptick in use as deployment scales increase. […]

Information security pros may be a thorn in developers’ sides, but, in reality, they need each other, and they know it. New Relic just released the results from a survey of both developers and security pros. They found much more agreement than you would think. At least 79 percent of […]
