November 2024 monthly summary focused on CI/CD workflow improvements across two StackRox repositories. Implemented targeted build trigger refinements to reduce unnecessary builds, accelerate feedback, and align with release workflows. Key outcomes: - stackrox/scanner: Refined CI build triggers to run Tekton builds only on the master branch or when a tag is pushed; disabled automatic builds on release branches; preserved existing PR triggers for approved branches or labeled PRs. Commit reference: ff7e0f3b43ead789cdaa6a803088f71876bd65cd (ROX-26784). - stackrox/collector: Optimized Konflux CI/CD triggers to exclude builds triggered by pushes to release branches while including builds on master or tag pushes, aligning with release strategy. Commit reference: ad56e93cb8e96dfa581fb538dbc15f703c63bba0 (ROX-26784). Overall impact and business value: - Reduced CI compute and resource usage by eliminating unnecessary builds on release branches - Faster feedback cycles and more predictable production release workflows - Improved governance of CI/CD triggers across multiple repositories with clear traceability to ROX-26784 Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Tekton-based CI pipelines and branch/tag trigger logic - Cross-repo collaboration and release-strategy alignment - Clear commit messaging and ROX-26784 traceability
