GitLab Releases Massive Update to CI/CD Platform
GitLab has updated its continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform with a raft of capabilities spanning everything from value stream management to cybersecurity.
In addition, GitLab announced it is making generally available Gitaly Clusters, which enable DevOps teams to create a warm replica of a Git repository.
