The cloud-based GitLab CI/CD platform allows development teams to streamline their Continuous integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) pipelines and accelerate their Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC). Adding strict, compliance-based static analysis — as provided by Helix QAC — as new stages to existing GitLab CI/CD pipelines will enhance the SDLC still further, and move your DevOps workflows from Continuous Integration to Continuous Compliance.

In today's data-driven business landscape, the ability to predict trends, explain drivers, and act on insights is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity. Yet for many organizations, the path from data to predictive intelligence remains challenging. Data science resources are scarce, and traditional tools often require specialized expertise that most analytics teams lack. At Qlik, we believe that the power of predictive analytics should be accessible to all.

Developer productivity is not just about writing code faster—it’s about creating efficient, self-service environments that minimize friction and reduce the time from development to deployment. In the context of Kubernetes clusters, enhancing productivity means leveraging the right tools and workflows to streamline development, reduce errors, and speed up feature releases. This guide explores the key strategies and tools that can significantly boost productivity in Kubernetes environments.

When referring to common types of software architecture, often people refer to the general blueprint or structure that software developers follow when building applications. Relying on common architectural styles makes it easier for project managers and programmers to make products efficiently. Development teams can choose software architecture patterns they know can offer the functionality they need.

If you’ve ever struggled with the complexities of traditional testing frameworks like Selenium—setting up drivers, dealing with flaky tests, and waiting forever for things to load—Cypress will feel like a lifesaver. Why? Because Cypress simplifies your testing process in ways that save both time and energy.

Jest and Vitest are two well-known JavaScript testing frameworks, each with its own strengths. Jest, created by Facebook, is especially popular for React applications. It provides a "zero-config" setup, built-in code coverage reporting, and snapshot testing, making it a complete solution for many JavaScript projects. Vitest, a newer framework in the Vite ecosystem, is known for its speed and lightweight design. Using Vite’s dev server, Vitest performs very well, especially in larger projects.
