During a two-month period, Ryan Cochran focused on enhancing cross-architecture support and CI/CD reliability in the stackrox/collector and stackrox/stackrox repositories. He implemented ARM-native build workflows in GitHub Actions, evaluated their impact on pipeline performance, and pragmatically reverted changes to maintain stability. In May, he expanded ARM support by introducing ARM runners, updating workflow logic, and adding multi-architecture manifests and integration tests for RHCOS arm64. Ryan also improved diagnostics by logging host architecture at startup and enabled arm64 deployment for PostgreSQL by updating Dockerfiles to CentOS 9. His work leveraged Python, Docker, and YAML for robust, maintainable solutions.

April 2025 monthly performance summary for stackrox/collector. Focused on evaluating ARM-native CI/CD builds to improve cross-architecture testing and reduce QEMU overhead. Implemented a prototype of ARM-native builds in GitHub Actions for collector and builder images, with the intent to accelerate pipelines and improve parity across architectures. The effort concluded with a revert to simplify the pipeline and maintain stability, reflecting a pragmatic approach to CI complexity. No production features deployed this month; learnings will inform future ARM strategy and CI decisions.
