CircleCI

One of the biggest issues in deployment workflows is keeping track of releases without making it a full-time job. I’m excited to share a new feature on CircleCI that does just that at no extra cost. Here’s what I’ve found most helpful: 1. CircleCI automatically detects releases in your pipelines—no setup hoops to jump through. Include “deploy” in your job names, and CircleCI will recognize and track it as a release. It's as simple as that. 2. These give you a clear record of every deployment across your environments, log each release, and link to your pipelines. No more digging through logs to see what changed. 3. You can monitor deployments within the CircleCI platform with a UI that ties everything together. And here’s the kicker: It’s included. There's no need to add extra tools or costs just to keep release management clean and easy. I’m proud of this feature—a small tweak that significantly impacts keeping workflows focused and friction-free. Check it out, and let me know what you think! https://lnkd.in/e-Dcwzhh #cicd #circleci #releases #wendysspicychickenforthewin

Join us TOMORROW for the Infrastructure & Ops Superstream with O'Reilly! This three-part series will dive into platform engineering best practices, guiding you from legacy systems to scalable, cost-effective, cloud-based solutions—without any business interruptions. We’re especially excited to hear from our own Moo Olaniyan, who’ll show how Terraform and Kubernetes helped our team streamline demo environments for enhanced consistency, security, and customer engagement.

At CircleCI, we’ve been experimenting with how AI can enhance our workflows. Beyond using AI as a coding assistant, Michael Webster notes how it excels in bug-hunting and making error analysis and feedback loops simpler. No more team-wide bug hunts—AI is here to lend a helping hand! 🐤 Check out Part 1 of this series from DEVOPSdigest to dive deeper into the power of AI: https://circle.ci/3YCByrO

We wrapped up LeadDev Berlin earlier this week and had an absolute blast! Olaf Molenveld and Rob Zuber led a packed workshop all about adapting your leadership style to effectively lead through uncertainty while Jim Rose, Tim Bush, Derry Bradley, Sam Meyer and Dan Fitt chatted with hundreds of devs about the future of software development in a rapidly evolving world. Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by, shared insights, and made this event unforgettable. Until next time! 🎉

We’ll be at #KubeCon and #CloudNativeCon North America in Salt Lake City next week, will you? We can't wait to meet with other adopters and technologists from leading #OpenSource and #CloudNative communities to learn and grow together. Register now: https://hubs.la/Q01SRp8D0

⏳ Duration matters! In 2024, workflows are 13% faster, averaging just 2 minutes and 50 seconds across all branches, meaning that the best teams are mastering the balance between rapid value delivery and stable deployments.

This Halloween, we're paying respects to those “quick fixes” and haunted debugs that never really left us. May they finally rest in peace 🪦➡️

I'm thrilled to share that I’ll be at LeadDev Berlin this year! 🎉 I'll be co-hosting a table-talk on how to speed up software delivery, and together with our CircleCI CTO Rob Zuber we will be running 2 micro-workshops on technical leadership in dynamic environments. If you're an engineering manager or tech leader, come join us this November for two days packed with insights on leading high-performing engineering teams. Let’s connect, learn, and swap ideas with hundreds of others who are just as passionate about effective team leadership.
