Although February is the shortest month of the year, we’ve been busy at Docker and we have new Docker Extensions to share with you.Docker extensions build new functionality into Docker Desktop, extend its existing capabilities, and allow you to discover and integrate additional tools that you’re already using with Docker.Let’s look at the exciting new extensions from February.

And, if you’d like to see everything that’s available, check out our full Extensions Marketplace.

Container adoption in enterprises continues to grow, and Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for deploying and operating containerized applications.At the same time, security is shifting left and should be addressed earlier in the software development lifecycle (SDLC).Security has morphed from being a static gateway at the end of the development process to something that (ideally) is embedded every step of the way.This can potentially increase the effort for engineering and DevOps teams.

Supply chain attacks increased by 300% between 2020 and 2021, making clear that security breaches are happening earlier in the software development lifecycle.Research also shows that in 2021, 80% of cyber security breaches were due to human error, and 20% involved attacks on desktops and laptops.  Developer workstations are being targeted for several reasons.Workstations have access to critical code and infrastructure, and the earlier a vulnerability is introduced, the more difficult it can be to identify the breach.Developers need to trust

Kubernetes has been a game-changer for ensuring scalable, high availability container orchestration in the Software, DevOps, and Cloud Native ecosystems.While the value is great, it doesn’t come for free.Significant effort goes into learning Kubernetes and all the underlying infrastructure and configuration necessary to power it.Still more effort goes into getting a cluster up and running that’s configured for production with automated scalability, security, and cluster maintenance.
