Let’s be honest: managing cloud costs isn’t sexy—but it is absolutely critical. As companies scale, especially in data-heavy and AI-driven environments, cloud bills can balloon fast. One minute everything’s on track, the next you’re staring at a surprise cloud bill from hundreds of forgotten test environments. That’s where FinOps comes in. Think of it as […]
In today’s fast-paced software development landscape, delivering high-quality code efficiently is critical. While tools like VS Code and Git have streamlined development workflows, adding intelligent automation and real-time code analysis can take developer productivity to the next level. That’s where Coder, Sonar, and Continue AI come in. This blog explores how these tools work together […]
Hi, I’m Ivan — I lead Atlassian consulting here at iTmethods. I work with all kinds of teams who rely on Opsgenie for incident response, on-call management, and alerting. When Atlassian announced they were retiring Opsgenie (new sales ended June 4, 2025, and full support gone by April 5, 2027), I started getting the same […]
Modern development teams are shipping faster than ever, but with that speed comes increased risk. Open-source components are everywhere, governance is often reactive, and visibility across the software supply chain is limited. If your artifact management or CI/CD workflows are still relying on manual oversight or scattered tooling, you’re not just slowing down your team. […]
As software delivery speeds up and AI adoption grows, the old ways of managing your pipelines aren’t enough. Security blind spots, model sprawl, and disjointed tooling slow teams down and increase risk. That’s why high-performing organizations are evolving how they use the JFrog Platform, modernizing pipelines, automating governance, and streamlining AI operations at scale. Here […]
Jenkins has long been the go-to for building and deploying software. But as organizations grow and DevOps matures, the way teams use Jenkins is changing fast. Maybe you’re juggling too many controllers. Or your monolithic server can’t keep up. Or maybe it’s just getting harder to maintain performance, governance, and security without slowing down delivery. […]
If you’re investing in SonarQube or thinking about it – you’re not alone. With growing pressure to reduce risk, improve code quality, and meet compliance mandates like SOC 2 or ISO 27001, teams are turning to SonarQube as a central piece of their DevSecOps strategy. But just having the tool isn’t enough. We’ve seen too […]
Ask anyone in software, platform engineering, or DevOps how quickly Jenkins servers can spiral out of control. While there are many challenges to overcome when building a reliable CI/CD pipeline with Jenkins, two of the most common ones we see include: A single monolithic server becomes bogged down, leading to a drop in performance. A […]
Is your IT service management (ITSM) ready to support growth? All organizations want to achieve operational excellence with their IT. The challenge is determining the current state, where you want to be, and how to get there. Foundry’s 2024 State of the CIO Survey revealed a few interesting trends: 75% of CIOs said they struggle […]
If you’ve been in the trenches of software delivery, you’ve likely encountered DevOps tool sprawl firsthand. It starts with good intentions—teams adopt best-of-breed tools to optimize different parts of the software delivery lifecycle. But as the stack grows, so does the complexity, and suddenly, managing the toolchain becomes a job in itself. Teams are spending […]
