  • Detect vulnerabilities and risky dependencies as developers write code
  • Generate AI-powered fixes directly in the IDE and CI pipelines to eliminate rework
  • Prioritize the exposures most likely to impact releases and production
  • Reduce late-stage fixes, security bottlenecks, and cost of remediation

  •  Standardize infrastructure with reusable, policy-aligned modules
  •  Enforce policy as code to prevent misconfigurations before deployment
  •  Ensure consistent, auditable infrastructure across hybrid and multi-cloud
  •  Reduce drift, manual reviews, and costly production failures

  •  Monitor applications and infrastructure with full-stack observability
  •  Correlate risk across services, dependencies, and runtime behavior
  •  Trigger AI-driven remediation workflows to resolve issues automatically 
  • Give developers, SREs, and CISOs a shared, real-time understanding of risk

Build for devops tools and workflows you already use

IBM Instana

IBM Instana™ extends visibility into CI/CD pipelines, bringing proactive monitoring to DevOps infrastructure and helping teams identify issues before they affect production. It provides the immediate feedback loop developers need to validate code quality and catch anomalies before they ever reach the user.

  • Maintain a single source of truth for synthetic tests across environments for consistency.
  • Trigger synthetic runs via CI/CD to approve or roll back builds quickly.
  • Empower developers to author and debug synthetic tests locally for rapid  iterations.
  • Combine host checks with browser testing to catch blind spots early.

IBM Concert

IBM Concert™ unifies data from critical DevOps software, infrastructure, and operational tools to help teams identify issues and improve resilience. It secures the source by integrating vulnerability management directly into the IDE. It acts as an automated security architect, guiding developers to write compliant code from the very first keystroke.

  • Identifies and prioritizes risk across code, dependencies, infrastructure, and runtime
  • Automates remediation to reduce manual effort and last-minute fixes
  • Improves release predictability by limiting late-stage surprises and interruptions
  • Aligns development and security around a shared view of exposure and risk

Terraform

Terraform® helps teams automate and manage DevOps infrastructure across hybrid and multi-cloud environments through infrastructure as code. It acts as a standardized control plane, enabling teams to build, secure, and scale infrastructure consistently from the very first deployment.

  • Provisions and manages infrastructure across clouds, services, and environments from a single workflow
  • Enforces security and compliance policies automatically before provisioning occurs
  • Accelerates delivery with reusable modules and centralized self‑service controls
  • Reduces cost and waste by preventing overprovisioning through automated policies and limits

What DevOps teams can do with IBM

From software delivery to infrastructure automation, IBM combines enterprise DevOps solutions with IBM Cloud DevOps capabilities to help teams build, deploy, and operate applications more efficiently.

Reduce exposure earlier and lower cost of remediation

Identify risky code, open-source dependencies, and configuration issues during development, not after deployment. AI-driven prioritization and in-flow remediation help teams fix what matters early, reducing rework, delays, and operational cost.

Enforce infrastructure guardrails as code

Apply policy as code across Terraform workflows to prevent insecure or noncompliant changes, reduce drift, and keep infrastructure changes consistent and auditable.

Correlate risk across code, infrastructure, and runtime

Connect development signals, infrastructure context, and runtime telemetry to understand which issues threaten uptime, releases, and business services.

Create a single, consistent view of risk across the organization

Unify signals across code, dependencies, infrastructure, and runtime so developers, SREs, and CISOs operate from the same data, with shared priorities and full context on business impact.

From reactive DevOps to automated DevOps
