Our algorithms verify deployments, identify test optimization opportunities, make cloud cost optimization recommendations, restore state on rollback, assist with complex deployment patterns, detect cloud cost anomalies, and trigger a bunch of other activities. After a deployment, sitting around staring at logs and dashboards sucks. Harness analyzes the logs, metrics, and traces from your observability solution and automatically determines the health of every deployment. When a bad deployment is detected, Harness can automatically rollback to the last good version.

    Powered by a centralized software catalog, Backstage restores order to your infrastructure and enables your product teams to ship high-quality code quickly — without compromising autonomy. At Spotify, we've always believed in the speed and ingenuity that comes from having autonomous development teams. But as we learned firsthand, the faster you grow, the more fragmented and complex your software ecosystem becomes. And then everything slows down again. By centralizing services and standardizing your tooling, Backstage streamlines your development environment from end to end. Instead of restricting autonomy, standardization frees your engineers from infrastructure complexity.

    EvolveDev

    EvolveDev

    Saasfoundry Technologies LLP

    In software engineering, data silos are crippling leadership visibility and impacting team bandwidth. Without clear data for decision-making, planning suffers, and engineering managers waste countless hours collecting data from multiple tools just to understand team progress. This lack of a clear picture also directly impacts deliverability and the team's ability to hit crucial goals and OKRs. Traditional methods are slow, inaccurate, and frankly, painful. EvolveDev is a Software Engineering Intelligence Platform that automatically integrates with all your engineering tools—from Jira to GitHub and more—giving leaders real-time, unified insights without any manual data crunching. By eliminating data silos and manual reporting, we empower engineering leaders to make data-driven decisions, improve team performance, and finally get a clear picture of what's happening.
