The latest update to the GitLab continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform adds a bevy of additional capabilities spanning multiple capabilities, from being able to manage application development and deployment projects in smaller chunks to allowing remote teams to work more efficiently. Brendan O’Leary, senior developer evangelist for GitLab, said a Minimal Viable Change (MVC) capability in version 13.2 enables DevOps teams to break down work into smaller, more manageable chunks that are less disruptive.

That capability has become especially crucial for DevOps teams that now routinely have large numbers of members who are working from home to help combat the spread of COVID-19.

Finally, DevOps teams can run the GitLab Runner tool to launch jobs on instances of z/OS running on IBM mainframes.

As part of those efforts, O’Leary said organizations are looking for a highly integrated DevOps platform that minimizes the amount of time and effort DevOps teams need to spend integrating components and managing the platform.
