Let’s dive into a topic that’s constantly buzzing in our industry: DevOps pipelines. We’ve all experienced the incredible transformation DevOps brought, dismantling silos and accelerating software delivery. But here’s a critical question for 2025 and beyond: Is your pipeline evolving?This is critical to understand because, without you realizing it, your DevOps pipeline might be stuck in the paradigms of its early successes. In a world continually upping the game in agility and continuous innovation, even “traditional” DevOps workflows are starting to reveal strains. The underlying challenge? Often, it’s the need for a more profound, intelligent, and integrated approach to automation.Many…

The reality is that companies of all sizes and maturities can suffer from API sprawl. And itʼs precisely what fuels a critical challenge for today’s…
Docker Desktop 4.43 just rolled out a set of powerful updates that simplify how developers run, manage, and secure AI models and MCP tools. Model Runner now includes better model management, expanded OpenAI API compatibility, and fine-grained controls over runtime behavior. The improved MCP Catalog makes it easier to discover and use MCP servers, and now supports submitting your own MCP servers! Meanwhile, the MCP Toolkit streamlines integration with VS Code and GitHub, including built-in OAuth support for secure authentication. Gordon, Docker’s AI agent, now supports multi-threaded conversations with faster, more accurate responses. And with the new Compose Bridge, you…

Microservices offer a lot of things; they increase performance, elasticity and resilience. Truth be told, though, if you don’t have a phenomenal monitoring strategy in place, they will become just a distributed nightmare at the touch of a button. Just imagine a significant incident that occurs in your system, and guess what? Your team is ill-equipped to guess which of your dozens (or hundreds!) of services is failing. Without solid monitoring, that’s the horror story. So that’s where Middleware comes in to help the organizations properly monitor all the microservices in detail to get the proper insights. Collecting data is not…

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA Sometimes, they are demonized, and sometimes, they are useful. Infinite loops come in a variety of options in PHP, so let’s put them neatly on a shelf, with all theirs variations. Classic while (true) To make an infinite loop, the most simple is to take a loop, and make it unconditional. The poster child for this is while (true). Using do…while(true) Obviously, do…while can do the same than while, but it is seldom mentionned anywhere. Indeed, do…while is roughly used 10 times less than while. The main difference is that the loop will be executed at least…
We recently launched a new, reimagined Docker MCP Catalog with improved discovery and a new submission process. Containerized MCP servers offer a secure way to run and scale agentic applications and minimize risks tied to host access and secret management. Developers can submit servers in two ways: Docker-built servers, which include our full security suite (signatures, SBOMs, attestations, and continuous scanning), or community-built servers, which are built and maintained by developers using their own Docker images. In this blog, we’ll share 5 MCP server best practices for designing, testing, and packaging them for submission. These recommendations are based on our…
