Let’s start with statistics: continuous integration, deployment, and delivery is among the top IT investment priorities in 2023 and 2024. To be exact, according to GitLab’s 2024 Global DevSecOps report, it is on the 8th place (and security is the top priority!). However, it shouldn’t be surprising, as CI/CD practice brings a lot of benefits to IT teams – it helps to accelerate software delivery and detect vulnerabilities and bugs earlier.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of containerized applications, robust data backup solutions are essential. This is particularly true in production Kubernetes environments, where data integrity and availability are paramount. This post explores the critical roles of CSI snapshots & Non-CSI snapshots in Kubernetes, and how CloudCasa by Catalogic enhances data protection and management capabilities across diverse Kubernetes deployments.

Data backup is an important part of cybersecurity. Implementing appropriate data backup solutions may save both time and money. Understanding and adhering to current backup procedures is critical, as is partnering with IT workers. Imagine an organization experiencing a sudden hardware failure on their computer. Without proper backups, restoring critical records gets delayed or even impossible. If there is no backup policy in place, one must be created.

With businesses increasingly relying on digital systems, the combination of governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) has become essential for an effective cybersecurity strategy. This framework helps organizations manage cyber risks, comply with regulations, and protect sensitive data.

With the threat landscape being on the rise, CISOs need to be much more attentive while building the organization’s security strategy. Constantly arising vulnerabilities, ransomware attacks, critical workflows, outages – all of that require CISOs to stay up to date to security issues and keep their finger on the pulse to change their security strategy once the prerequisites pop up. We’ve been tracking GitHub, GitLab, and Atlassian -related incidents for the latest few years…

OpenShift, Red Hat’s enterprise-grade Kubernetes platform, has become the cornerstone for organizations embracing containerization. Its ability to streamline application development, deployment, and scaling across hybrid and multi-cloud environments is undeniable. However, successful OpenShift deployment is far from a walk in the park. The intricacies of container orchestration, data management, and maintaining high availability can quickly overwhelm even experienced IT teams.

It’s July again, and all around the northern hemisphere people’s thoughts are starting to drift away from work and toward summer vacation. But here at Catalogic, the great millwheel of software innovation never stops turning!
