AI-driven workflows have transformed our end-to-end development and collaboration processes
The built-in CI/CD integration in GitLab [Private Offer Only] is lacking. We are still depending on other packages. If GitLab [Private Offer Only] had some CI/CD integration internally, it would be beneficial. Because for CI/CD integration now, we are currently doing it with the direct server side. I think it is not that much integrated with the current scenarios of AI, that is AI agent-based or assistant-based coding patterns. Some more improvement is required in GitLab [Private Offer Only] for CI/CD integration along with AI platforms. AI integration is basically what we need, especially on the CI/CD side of GitLab [Private Offer Only]. The code assistant, such as a cloud code assistant, is making things with GitLab [Private Offer Only], but it is conventional. They are pulling the code and sending the thing. I think they can do some more integration, seamless integration with GitLab [Private Offer Only]. AI is consuming GitLab [Private Offer Only] with the older style. If AI were fully pluggable in GitLab [Private Offer Only], it would be beneficial. I think we could get some more time reduction, especially on the testing side and the code testing side.

Container workloads have run reliably and now support secure, customizable services
It is important that Ubuntu 20 (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) (ARM) | Support by SupportedImages has long-term support for mission-critical operations, because there are applications which need to be updated if we are going with a newer version. I do not see areas for improvement in Ubuntu 20 (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) (ARM) | Support by SupportedImages because it satisfies our requirements. Ubuntu 20 (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) (ARM) | Support by SupportedImages is 99% stable and reliable. It is not our primary OS; we are using it for specific services for containers and specific services. We have also introduced AI into the platform. For example, if an updated version of Redis is available, that updated version will not be available in Ubuntu 20 (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) (ARM) | Support by SupportedImages repository. In that case, we have to pull it directly from the Redis servers and install it manually for it to work for us. I give this product a rating of 9.
