November 2018 Summaries

Harness has enhanced its Continuous Delivery (CD) platform by integrating support for Microsoft .NET, IIS, Azure, and WinRM, alongside improvements in GitOps, Configuration as Code, and Jenkins integration. The platform now supports Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and LDAP for better scalability and security, and introduces new features for Terraform and AWS CloudFormation to streamline infrastructure automation. Despite a slight reduction in deployment velocity to 1,600 in November due to the Thanksgiving holiday, Harness continues to innovate with support for SSH over Kerberos, a connected on-premises deployment model, and continuous verification with Bugsnag, allowing for immediate identification of quality regressions in application deployments.

Harness has expanded its Continuous Delivery platform to include robust support for Microsoft .NET technologies and the Microsoft Azure Cloud, facilitating efficient deployment and verification of .NET applications across multi-cloud environments. This enhancement allows enterprises to seamlessly deploy both traditional on-premises IIS applications and cloud-native microservices, with automated health checks to ensure optimal performance and quality. The platform, which also supports a variety of other cloud and on-premises infrastructures like AWS, GCP, and Kubernetes, offers a comprehensive suite of tools for deploying .NET applications, including services, environments, workflows, pipelines, and triggers. Harness also provides GitOps capabilities for managing deployment pipelines as code, and its Continuous Verification feature integrates with existing APM and log analytics tools to automatically identify and address performance or quality regressions using machine learning. This makes Harness a versatile solution for enterprises with diverse applications, providing real-time analytics and automated rollback capabilities to maintain high deployment standards.
