February 2025 performance summary across Netcracker/qubership integration repositories. Focused on stabilizing automation, modernizing Maven release pipelines, and formalizing snapshot deployments to improve release reliability, speed, and governance. Key outcomes include stabilization of the auto-labeler workflow in the engine, a unified and hardened Maven release/deployment pipeline with refined versioning, optional Docker publishing, dry-run support, packaging/testing/deploying Maven artifacts, and improved tag handling; introduction of dedicated Maven snapshot deployment workflows across multiple modules; and governance enforcing SNAPSHOT-only deployments for snapshots to Maven Central and GitHub Packages. These changes reduce manual intervention, improve artifact quality and traceability, and accelerate safe, repeatable releases.
