Expanding GitLab for Startups program

GitLab is committed to supporting the startup community, and we are excited to announce the expansion of our GitLab for Startups program. Our goal has always been to help businesses of all sizes streamline their development processes and improve collaboration, and we recognize the unique challenges that startups face. 

Starting on March 15, 2023, our GitLab for Startups program will include qualifying startups backed by external funding. Based on funding level and years in the program, qualifying startups are able to utilize our complete DevSecOps platform at a highly discounted price or possibly at no cost for the first year. The program will continue supporting eligible startups with deep discounts in the second year.  

With GitLab, startups are able to reduce software development cycles, reduce time to market, and improve product quality. By adopting a single application for the entire DevSecOps lifecycle, startups can develop software faster and focus more on growing their customer base, increasing revenue, and differentiating their product in the market.

The following table summarizes the benefits and requirements of the program:

Qualifying startups can submit the application form on our GitLab for Startups page starting on March 15, 2023. For additional questions regarding this offer, please see our FAQ section on the GitLab for Startups page or feel free to reach out to us at startups@gitlab.com.

Efficient DevSecOps workflows: Hands-on python-gitlab API automation

Image
A friend once said in a conference presentation, “Manual work is a bug." When there are repetitive tasks in workflows, I tend to come back to this quote , and try to automate as much as possible. For example, by querying a REST API to do an inventory of settings, or calling API actions to create new comments in GitLab issues/merge requests. The interaction with the GitLab REST API can be done in different ways, using HTTP requests with curl (or hurl ) on the command line, or by writing a script in a programming language. The latter can become reinventing the wheel again with raw HTTP requests code, and parsing the JSON responses. Thanks to the wider GitLab community, many different languages are supported by API abstraction libraries. They provide support for all API attributes, add helper functions to get/create/delete objects, and generally aim to help developers focus. The python-gitlab library is a feature-rich and easy-to-use library written in Python. In this blog post, y...

Secure GitLab CI/CD workflows using OIDC JWT on a DevSecOps platform

Image
Securing CI/CD workflows can be challenging. This blog post walks you through the problem validation, explores the JWT token technology and how it can be used with OIDC authentication, and discusses implementation challenges with authorization realms. You will learn about the current possibilities and future plans with GitLab 16.0. Variables vs. secrets Variables are an efficient way to control and inject parameters into your jobs and pipelines, making managing and configuring the CI/CD workflows easier. You can read more about how to use CI/CD variables . An extra layer of security on top of variables to mask and protect, for now, is our “best-effort” to prevent sensitive variables from being accidentally revealed. However, variables are not a drop-in replacement for secrets. Securing secrets natively is a solution that GitLab aspires to provide. Meanwhile, we recommend storing sensitive information in a dedicated secrets management solution. As a company, we will provide you abili...
