After GoCenter was first released the team at JFrog said it was faster to get modules from there than it was getting modules “the old way”. To be honest, when they said that, I did not believe them. Following the old proverb “seeing is believing”, I set out to test the speed and see whether those claims were accurate. TL;DR: It turns out the team was right!

Go is the language of choice for a lot of (cloud-native) projects because it creates very streamlined binaries. We used to “vendor” in all dependencies, but with Go Modules we now have real dependency management. We’ll show you a few pipelines from code to production and see if Modules are that much better to make builds lightning quick and hassle-free.

Ever since I discovered Kubernetes, I’ve been looking at OpenFaaS to build and deploy serverless functions on top of it. So as I started building more and more functions to help the Developer Relations team at JFrog, I wanted to share how I use JFrog Artifactory and OpenFaaS together!

Today, Kubernetes is the defacto standard if you want to run container workloads in a production environment. As we set out to build our next generation of products, and run them smoothly in the cloud, we needed to move to Kubernetes too! In the process of building tools like KubeXray and GoCenter we learned a whole bunch. At the Amsterdam Kubernetes/Cloud-Native Meetup I presented a talk in which we walked through our lessons learned and how we’re running it at scale.

In many talks, you hear how everything is DevOps unicorns and rainbows, and you feel like you’re the last person on earth with “suboptimal” processes, tools and environment. But no despair, DevOps talks are like Instagram, hаve nothing to do with real life. In this talk, we’ll reveal the truth.

It was awesome to be at DevOps Days Charlotte 2019 and speak about how you hear everything in DevOps is unicorns and rainbows, and you feel like you’re the last person on earth with “suboptimal” processes, tools and environment. Together with Baruch Sadogursky I got the chance to change the image bit. While most DevOps talks are like Instagram (everything is awesome and perfect), they hаve nothing to do with the real life.

In this webinar, we’ll look at Go modules and why it is such an improvement over vendoring, we’ll show you why dependency management is so important, and we’ll build a CI/CD pipeline for your Go projects using GoCenter!

This is the fourth and final post in the blog series on using GitHub Actions with the JFrog CLI and JFrog Artifactory. In this post we’ll look at building an app and uploading it, together with the BuildInfo, to Artifactory. If you have any thoughts on what the next series of posts should be, let me know here or on Twitter!

I was lucky enough to get access to GitHub Actions over the Christmas break and wanted to use that new found technology to build a few tutorials. Since I also just started at JFrog, I combined learning the JFrog Technology with building awesome actions. Last week’s article built a Go app using Artifactory, the CLI and GitHub Actions and this one will continue that by publishing the Go app as a module.

With the release of Go 1.11 also came the introduction of Go Modules. That introduction was awesome, but it did leave a few issues unsolved. Using GOPROXY is an “all or nothing” exercise, meaning you have to get all your modules from the same place, or your build will fail.
