Clarive 7.22 Can Write Its Configuration as Plain Text
Clarive 7.22 writes an installation's configuration as HCL files that refer to each other by name instead of by database id. The files can be reviewed in Git and imported into another Clarive installation, from the cla command line or from new HCL views in the interface.
Deploying to Kubernetes Takes One Clarive Rule
A Clarive pipeline rule with a handful of steps deploys an application to Kubernetes. It applies the manifests with kubectl, waits for the rollout and undoes it if the new pods never come up.
