Here’s a moment from the IBM AI-DevOps Tech Event in NYC (Aug 26, 2025).

On stage with me (from left to right):

• Brett Egloff, Director, Global Alliances (IBM & Red Hat) at GitLab
• Imran Hashmi, DevOps Sales Leader for the Americas at IBM
• James Hunter, AI DevSecOps Product Leader at IBM

It was a privilege to meet Brett and highlight the synergy between IBM, GitLab, and DBmaestro within the AI-DevOps Loop platform:

• IBM’s AI-DevOps Loop provides the foundation – integrating AI-driven insights and governance across the lifecycle.
• GitLab orchestrates the end-to-end DevOps journey for applications.
• DBmaestro extends DevSecOps to the database, with AI-powered automation, policy enforcement, governance, and bulletproof rollbacks.

Together, the three platforms form a seamless, AI-driven DevSecOps ecosystem – closing the last mile of DevOps, eliminating blind spots, and ensuring productivity, compliance, and resilience at enterprise scale.

A big thank you to Imran and James for hosting. Standing with IBM, GitLab, and DBmaestro on one stage truly felt like a consortium of leaders shaping the future of DevSecOps.
