What if your CI/CD pipelines could fix themselves? What if they understood why a deployment failed, rolled back safely, and then proposed the correct fix? Join us for a hands-on technical session showcasing how JFrog Artifactory, Dagger’s portable pipelines, and an LLM-powered AI agent combine to create an intelligent, adaptive platform for shipping software fast, safely, and globally.
We’ll walk through a live scenario such as:
- An app build fails in CI.
- An AI agent (backed by a local LLM) inspects the failure, correlates logs, build metadata, and deployment artifacts.
- It proposes a fix in code (using Dagger Functions), regenerates the pipeline on the fly, and pushes the corrected artifact to JFrog.
You’ll leave with a blueprint for building your own self-healing pipeline systems using the best of artifact management, containerized pipeline portability, and developer-first AI.

Memory safety issues have long been a common cause of security vulnerabilities, to the point where government agencies are recommending moving away from languages like C and C++ for new product development. However, while “memory safe” languages exist - the same agencies acknowledge that software will have to interface with components written in C and C++ for a long time, and recommend that software vendors have a memory safety roadmap.
Key items of a memory safety roadmap include keeping proper track of external dependencies, a transparency plan (vendors and customers should know which dependencies are included in each product), and a plan to react to disclosed CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures).
The recent ISO C++ developer survey highlights how dependencies are still integrated as part of projects and not properly traced. This talk will cover how C++ developers can leverage Conan to properly track dependencies, and how it integrates with JFrog’s Security offerings to help developers in fulfilling their contractual and regulatory obligations.
Features covered: Software Bill of Materials, Audit dependencies (report CVE vulnerabilities, powered by JFrog Advanced Security), package signing and JFrog Xray integration via Artifactory.

In today’s application security landscape, navigating complex deployment environments often feels like facing an onslaught of cyber adversaries. Much like Batman’s trusty utility belt— equipping the perfect gadget for every challenge— integrating robust security into your SDLC transforms your pipeline into a resilient defense against vulnerabilities and breaches.
This talk deep dives into a comprehensive case study where we revolutionized our security posture. On one hand, we applied an innovative strategy to unify all our deployments to a 'Unified Deployment Model' based on Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), while on the other by integrating JFrog Xray into each stage of our Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC). Through this integration, our team uncovered about 100K previously undetected security violations that our traditional fragmented approach had overlooked.
In large codebases with services across mobile and front-end, lack of standardization and common tooling causes operational burdens. Teams often build custom deployment flows, leading to two major issues: no consistent “shift-left” feedback loop, and no unified security posture or compliance. This fragmentation hampers visibility into DORA metrics due to divergent pipelines and tech stacks.
Here, we'll explore approaches for architecting a 'Unified Deployment Pipeline' that accelerates developer velocity and productivity while enforcing robust security governance across the SDLC with integrated logging, tracing, and metrics. Additionally, by automating SBOM generation, our strategy delivers an organization-wide impact—enhancing transparency, compliance, and overall risk mitigation. This architecture also provides central observability of progress and aggregates metrics to monitor the health and maturity of deployments. Additionally, we will also investigate how the “build once, deploy many times” paradigm aligns with the proposed architecture.

A talk about platform engineering, DevOps, DevSecOps, sprawl, chaos, bad decisions, compliance, and security. Why engineer an Internal Developer Platform when I have DevOps? DevOps works fine when you are a 20 person start-up, but it often doesn't scale to enterprise-level development efforts. When you have 3,000 developers with different needs and you are responsible for EO compliance and security, a modular self-service platform is a good choice to build. In this talk, I cover the challenges we have faced in a 3,000-developer enterprise, and how we are working to address them. I also cover how we are working on automating, integration, and scaling the creation of our internal developer platform.

One area where we believe AI agents will be crucial is DevOps automation.
Data and ML workloads have been historically very hard to automate reliably because of their inherent complexity, and because traditional data platforms require specialized expertise and manual oversight.
This talk argues that the future of DataOps is built around code-first abstractions and fully-programmable data platforms that meet the needs of DevOps teams: full replicability, easy automation and transparent security.
We will present very specific real-world examples on how Recommender and RAG systems running in production can become more reliable by abstracting infrastructure complexities behind familiar Python concepts like functions, packages, tables, and version control.

The Artifact Avengers: Governance to the Rescue
Salon K
Enterprise-level, well-structured and efficient artifact governance frameworks can ensure seamless onboarding, security, compliance and lifecycle management - all via Artifactory. This architecture enables application teams to interact with artifacts while reinforcing security and ease of operations.
Key aspects of governance:
Effective team onboarding: this workflow simplifies the process by creating dedicated repositories for each application, ensuring the teams have well-defined space to store and manage their artifacts.
Tailor-made access controls: implemented effectively, allows teams to securely manage their artifacts and maintain role based access.
Security: remains top priority, with authentication enforced for all uploads/downloads and eliminating anonymous access and ensuring that only authorized users and services interact with Artifactory.
Auditing artifacts: tracking the movement of artifacts across all stages of deployment through a structured promotion process with vulnerability detection from test environments through production with traceability and compliance.
Maintain optimized repository structures: by archiving stale artifacts through automated batch process, prevent repository bloat and improve storage efficiency.
This end-to-end artifact governance structure is made possible by harnessing the power of JFrog APIs, enabling automation and operational efficiency at scale.

Secure & Streamline Your Software Supply Chain with JFrog, Strengthening SDLC Integrity, Step by Step
Strengthening SDLC Integrity, Step by Step
Salon A
In our discussions with customers, we identified a critical challenge in the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC): package signing often occurs after the package build, altering the package’s SHA in the middle of the process.
While organizations aim to ensure that artifacts pushed to production have a fully signed and verifiable provenance from development to deployment, this intermediate modification disrupts the integrity of the build step and beyond.
Customers recognize the value of immutable release bundles and a robust provenance posture. However, transitioning away from a process that modifies artifacts mid-SDLC for signing to an immutable workflow remains challenging.
This talk will explore how organizations can adopt a step-by-step approach to ensure consistency and predictability across SDLC maturity stages, while enabling the addition of trusted and signed evidence at every stage; a way to enable security, traceability, and compliance without compromising integrity.

Resiliency by Design: Internal Platforms' Contributions to Cloud Stability
Resiliency by Design: Internal Platforms' Contributions to Cloud Stability
Salon H
In today's complex enterprise environments, building and maintaining resilient data streaming platforms requires a strategic approach that empowers developers while ensuring security and operational efficiency. This presentation explores how Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) can streamline development workflows, enhance application portability, and fortify your software supply chain, including the use of CNCF projects.
We'll delve into:
Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs): Understanding the core principles of IDPs and how they enable self-service infrastructure, reduce cognitive load for developers, and promote consistent development practices.
Open Application Model (OAM): Leveraging OAM to define applications in a platform-agnostic way, separating application logic from infrastructure concerns. This promotes portability and simplifies management across diverse environments.
Crossplane: Using Crossplane to extend your Kubernetes cluster and manage infrastructure resources (databases, message queues, etc.) directly from within your IDP, enabling a unified control plane for both applications and infrastructure.
A key focus will be on building a hardened software supply chain:
Melange, Apko, and Wolfi: Building minimal, secure container images using these next-generation tools. We'll discuss the benefits of reduced attack surface and improved image scanning results.
Sigstore Project (Cosign, Fulcio, Rekor): Ensuring the integrity and authenticity of container images through signing and attestation. We'll demonstrate how to use Sigstore to sign images built from managed CI pipelines and push to jFrog Artifactory securely.
Kubernetes Admission Control: Implementing KubeWarden, a Kubernetes admission controller, to enforce policies and verify image signatures before deployment, preventing the execution of untrusted code.
Workload Attestation using SPIFFE: Using SPIFFE for workload attestations.
