If Ingress is the Legacy Path, then the Gateway API is the modern highway. In this guide, I will walk you through a complete migration demonstrating how to swap out your old Ingress controllers for Envoy Gateway. We won't just move traffic; we'll leverage Envoy's power to implement seamless request mirroring and more robust, path-based routing that was previously hidden behind complex annotations.
The foundation for modernization rests on a consistent environment that can host virtual machines and cloud native applications side by side. Red Hat OpenShift and Red Hat OpenStack Platform together create a unified telco cloud that supports high throughput network functions and the container platforms used by modern application teams.
Red Hat AI Enterprise provides a foundation for modern AI workloads, including AI life-cycle management, high-performance inference at scale, agentic AI innovation, integrated observability and performance modeling, and trustworthy AI and continuous evaluation. Tools are provided for dynamic resource scaling, monitoring, and security.
"For healthcare, government, and contact center environments, reducing risk at the endpoint is essential. By aligning IGEL's immutable endpoint OS and Adaptive Secure Desktop™ with Windows 365 and Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop, these reference architectures give organizations clear guidance for delivering secured and resilient digital workspaces."
Just a couple of words about today's topic. Of course, nothing surprising here, AI is changing DevOps and is changing the way teams are moving beyond reactive monitoring towards predictive automated delivery and operations. What does that mean? How can teams actually implement predictive incident detection, intelligent rollout, and AI-driven remediation? Also, how can we accelerate delivery? Those are all topics that today's panelists hopefully are going to cover.
Almost a quarter of those surveyed said they had experienced a container-related security incident in the past year. The bottleneck is rarely in detecting vulnerabilities, but mainly in what happens next. Weeks or months can pass between the discovery of a problem and the actual implementation of a solution. During that period, applications continued to run with known risks, making organizations vulnerable, reports The Register.
Over the past decade, software development has been shaped by two closely related transformations. One is the rise of devops and continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD), which brought development and operations teams together around automated, incremental software delivery. The other is the shift from monolithic applications to distributed, cloud-native systems built from microservices and containers, typically managed by orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes.
An observability control plane isn't just a dashboard. It's the operational authority system. It defines alert rules, routing, ownership, escalation policy, and notification endpoints. When that layer is wrong, the impact is immediate. The wrong team gets paged. The right team never hears about the incident. Your service level indicators look clean while production burns.
While building apps I learned that writing code is only half the journey - getting it deployed, updated, and running reliably is also just as important if not more. When I started deploying my apps to the cloud, I realized how many manual steps it took to get the app running. That's when I discovered CI/CD and GitOps tools that automate everything from testing to deployment, so developers can focus on writing code instead of wasting time on manually deploying each time.
A North American manufacturer spent most of 2024 and early 2025 doing what many innovative enterprises did: aggressively standardizing on the public cloud by using data lakes, analytics, CI/CD, and even a good chunk of ERP integration. The board liked the narrative because it sounded like simplification, and simplification sounded like savings. Then generative AI arrived, not as a lab toy but as a mandate. "Put copilots everywhere," leadership said. "Start with maintenance, then procurement, then the call center, then engineering change orders."
Industry professionals are realizing what's coming next, and it's well captured in a recent LinkedIn thread that says AI is moving on from being just a helper to a full-fledged co-developer - generating code, automating testing, managing whole workflows and even taking charge of every part of the CI/CD pipeline. Put simply, AI is transforming DevOps into a living ecosystem, one driven by close collaboration between human judgment and machine intelligence.
Developers spend more than 60% of their time debugging and maintaining code rather than building new features, Stack Overflow's Developer Survey reports. If you're running a software development team or building applications for your business, you can use Microsoft Visual Studio Pro to streamline coding workflows with an AI-enhanced development environment that reduces debugging time and accelerates deployment cycles. Best of all, Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2026 is currently available for only $49.99 (reg. $499.99).
The Harness Resilience Testing platform extends the scope of the tests provided to include application load and disaster recovery (DR) testing tools that will enable DevOps teams to further streamline workflows.
Steve Yegge thinks he has the answer. The veteran engineer - 40+ years at Amazon, Google and Sourcegraph - spent the second half of 2025 building Gas Town, an open-source orchestration system that coordinates 20 to 30 Claude Code instances working in parallel on the same codebase. He describes it as "Kubernetes for AI coding agents." The comparison isn't just marketing. It's architecturally accurate.
Blue/green deployments on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) have long been a go-to pattern for shipping zero-downtime deployments. Historically, the recommended approach in the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) was to wire ECS to AWS CodeDeploy for traffic shifting, lifecycle hooks, and tight integration with AWS CodePipeline. In July 2025, Amazon ECS launched built-in blue/green deployments. This allows you to operate directly within the ECS service, without requiring the use of Amazon CodeDeploy.
What is Docker Compose?If you've ever struggled with running multiple docker run commands for a complex application, Docker Compose is your solution. It's a tool that allows you to define and manage multi-container Docker applications using a single, declarative configuration file. Instead of a long list of commands, you describe all your services, networks, and volumes in a docker-compose.yml file. With one command, you can spin up your entire application stack.
