Director of Information Security
Best Practices to create a SBOM with EOS/EOL Timeline to aid vulnerability remediation (currently use GitLab as our pipeline and Nexus repository).Group Director of Information Security
See Full DiscussionIt's a 5-step process which you will need to correlate for your environment.
1. Integrate dependency scanners (e.g., GitLab's built-in scanner, Trivy, Snyk, OWASP Dependency-Check or your existing Nexus repo) to flag outdated dependencies and use GitLab’s security dashboard to monitor deprecated packages.
2. Set up GitLab CI/CD rules to fail builds if EOL/EOS dependencies are detected and enforce allow/block lists for dependencies using GitLab’s security policies.
3. Configure GitLab to generate reports when a dependency is approaching its EOL and see if you can use GitLab’s webhook integrations to notify security teams via Slack, email, or Jira.
4. Implement dependency auto-updating tools (e.g., Renovate, Dependabot) to replace (identified & manually verified) EOL/EOS components. If no direct upgrade path exists, isolate the outdated component via containerization or sandboxing.
5. Maintain a historical record of all SBOMs and EOL/EOS alerts for compliance audits (ISO 27001, NIST, etc.). Regularly conduct security reviews using GitLab’s security reports.

What has been your experience utilizing GITLAB (not GITHUB) to implement CI/CD for Athena and AWS GLUE, specifically for a process to transfer changes in Athena Views from the development environment to production?CTO
See Full DiscussionWe have used gitlab CI CD pipelines using terraform for all AWS resources, not athena or glue specifically though.
GitLab Reviews and Ratings

Efficient code management and project tracking with minor learning curve
I can say that my experience with GitLab has been very good. It is very convenient to use, and it allows us to organize all our activities in one place. It help us to do the code management, tracking, and automation of projects, thus saving time and facilitating our teamwork. It also assists our metric framework by allowing us to monitor important metrics and performance. The data integration functions allow us to easily integrate data from various sources. Benchmarking assistance allows us to compare results and monitor our progress over time. The access control options are very convenient to manage and allow us to grant appropriate access permissions to particular individuals. We also use it for survey collection and feedback, which helps us improve our processes.
