Why embracing AI and cloud is critical for the future of software delivery – Software Testing News

DevSecOps is evolving with platform engineering emerging as a solution for modern software development challenges. By 2026, 80% of large software engineering companies will have internal platform engineering teams. Key trends include integrating security throughout the development lifecycle, adopting Infrastructure-as-Code for automation and consistency, and leveraging AI to accelerate deployments. Organizations must balance rapid delivery with quality through cross-functional teams, automated security testing, and self-service infrastructure. Success requires embracing cloud-native architectures, continuous learning, and developer-centric approaches while addressing AI security risks like malicious code libraries.
