With that much product innovation, we know it can be difficult to keep track of the latest GitLab has to offer. So, each quarter, we’re spotlighting the most impactful capabilities to help you consolidate toolchains, boost development efficiency, and improve application security. Here are three new features [released in GitLab](https://about.gitlab.com/releases/categories/releases/) over the past few months that make an immediate impact on your software development.\n\n > Learn why GitLab was named a Leader in the [2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for DevOps Platforms](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/gitlab-named-a-leader-in-the-2024-gartner-magic-quadrant-for-devops/) and the [2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for AI Code Assistants](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/gitlab-named-a-leader-in-2024-gartner-magic-quadrant-for-ai-code-assistants/).\n\n## Root Cause Analysis: Diagnose broken pipelines faster\n\n[Developers spend less than a quarter of their time on code creation](https://about.gitlab.com/developer-survey/), according to our 2024 Global DevSecOps Survey. The bulk of their time is consumed by administrative tasks, planning, and troubleshooting — many of which can be accelerated with AI.\n\nFor example, diagnosing broken pipelines is a frustrating task for developers, which requires them to tediously scour through dense log files to identify the cause of the error. This often leads to trial-and-error fixes, sleuthing for solutions on Google, or asking a peer for support. This is a practical scenario where [GitLab Duo Root Cause Analysis](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/developing-gitlab-duo-blending-ai-and-root-cause-analysis-to-fix-ci-cd/) can meaningfully help developers.\n\nRoot Cause Analysis analyzes log files to uncover the core issue behind an error message in a CI/CD pipeline. Not only does it provide teams with insight into what caused the issue, but it also suggests a fix to help resolve the issue faster.\n\nWith less time spent on troubleshooting, developers can focus on building differentiated products to help their organizations win.\n\nGitLab Duo Root Cause Analysis is available as a [GitLab Duo Enterprise add-on](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/gitlab-duo-pro/sales/?type=free-trial&toggle=gitlab-duo-pro).\n\n\u003C!-- blank line -->\n\u003Cfigure class=\"video_container\">\n  \u003Ciframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/sTpSLwX5DIs?si=JZSgd7GTTk4y6mre\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\">\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/figure>\n\u003C!-- blank line -->\n\n## Vulnerability Explanation: Quickly understand security risks\n\nWe know that developers are playing [an even greater role in the remediation of security vulnerabilities](https://about.gitlab.com/developer-survey/). However, not every developer is well-versed in cybersecurity or has a working knowledge of the tactics, techniques, and procedures a threat actor will use to exploit an application. This creates a knowledge gap, which is exposed when vulnerabilities are uncovered.\n\n[GitLab Duo Vulnerability Explanation](https://about.gitlab.com/the-source/ai/understand-and-resolve-vulnerabilities-with-ai-powered-gitlab-duo/) bridges the knowledge gap between security and development teams. It gives developers a detailed description of the vulnerability infecting their code, real-world examples of how attackers can exploit the vulnerable code, and practical suggestions for remediation.\n\nWith this feature, you can level up your security skills, resolve vulnerabilities faster, and help create a proactive security culture — all while lightening the load on your security teams.\nGitLab Duo Vulnerability Explanation is available as a [GitLab Duo Enterprise add-on](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/gitlab-duo-pro/sales/?type=free-trial&toggle=gitlab-duo-pro).\n\n\u003C!-- blank line -->\n\u003Cfigure class=\"video_container\">\n  \u003Ciframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/MMVFvGrmMzw?si=Zsx-91078XSNNUSm\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"> \u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/figure>\n\u003C!-- blank line -->\n\n## Advanced SAST: Filter out the noise\n\nFalse positives are a [top frustration](https://about.gitlab.com/developer-survey/2024/security-compliance/) for both security and development teams. Unfortunately, this is a common complaint of traditional Static Application Security Testing (SAST). While SAST is great at integrating security early in the software development lifecycle, its value diminishes when it produces inaccurate results. “Drowning in a backlog of vulnerabilities” is a reality for many security and development teams, often resulting in tension between them.\n\n[Advanced SAST](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/gitlab-advanced-sast-is-now-generally-available/), our newest security scanner, uses a proprietary detection engine with rules informed by in-house security research to identify exploitable vulnerabilities. It delivers more accurate results, so security and development teams don’t have to sort through the noise of false-positive results, shortening triage time, improving development velocity, and decreasing friction between teams.\n\nAdvanced SAST is available in the [GitLab Ultimate tier](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/ultimate/).\n\n\u003C!-- blank line -->\n\u003Cfigure class=\"video_container\">\n  \u003Ciframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDa1MHOcyn8?si=Ff4HjNpvv5eXsSNH\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"> \u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/figure>\n\u003C!-- blank line -->\n\n## Put these features to work today\n\nAt GitLab, we’re committed to making it easier for teams to build software, faster. Capabilities like GitLab Duo Root Cause Analysis, GitLab Duo Vulnerability Explanation, and GitLab Advanced SAST are just a few of the recent innovations we’ve delivered to help developers and security teams level up their DevSecOps workflows.

GitLab metrics and registry features help reduce CI/CD bottlenecks","See how CI/CD Job Performance Metrics and Container Virtual Registry, currently in beta, help platform teams quickly spot slow jobs and simplify multi-registry container pulls.",[708],"Talia Armato-Helle","https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1771438388/t6sts5qw4z8561gtlxiq.png","Platform and DevOps engineers spend too much time piecing together visibility across fragmented tools and managing infrastructure that should just work.\n\nTwo new GitLab features currently in beta tackle this from different angles but share the same goal: giving practitioners direct control over the CI/CD infrastructure they depend on, without adding another third-party tool. One surfaces job-level performance data right where you monitor pipelines. The other simplifies how you pull container images from multiple registries with built-in caching.\n\nBoth features are open for feedback now. Your input will help shape what ships next.\n\n## CI/CD Job Performance Metrics\n\n* **Available tiers:** GitLab Premium, GitLab Ultimate\n* **Status:** Limited-availability beta on GitLab.com; available on GitLab Self-Managed and GitLab Dedicated when ClickHouse is configured\n\nToday, there’s no simple way to see when a particular job’s duration starts increasing or which jobs are quietly dragging down your pipeline runtimes. Most teams either build custom dashboards or manually dig through logs to answer basic questions like:\n\n* Which jobs are slowest?  \n* Where are failure rates climbing?  \n* Which stage is the real bottleneck?\n\nCI/CD Job Performance Metrics changes that by adding a new job-focused panel to the CI/CD analytics page at the project level.\n\nFor each job in your pipelines, you can see:\n\n* Typical (P50, median) and worst‑case (P95) job duration, so you can quickly view normal versus slowest runs  \n* Failure rate, so you can spot fragile or flaky jobs  \n* Job name and stage, covering the last 30 days by default\n\nThe table is sortable, searchable by job name, and paginated, so platform teams get a single view to answer questions that previously required separate tools or custom reporting.\n\n**Try it now**\n\n* Navigate to your project and select **Analyze \\> CI/CD analytics**.  \n* Look for the CI/CD job performance metrics panel and sort by duration or failure rate to find your slowest or least reliable jobs.\n\n**Documentation**\n\n* [CI/CD analytics – CI/CD job performance metrics](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/analytics/ci_cd_analytics/#cicd-job-performance-metrics)\n\n**What’s coming next**\n\nWe’re working on stage-level grouping, so you can view aggregated metrics across your build, test, and deploy stages, and quickly understand where to focus optimization work.\n\n**Share your feedback:**\n\n* [CI/CD job performance metrics epic](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/work_items/18548)\n\n## Container Virtual Registry\n\n**Tier:** GitLab Premium, GitLab Ultimate\n**Status:** Beta, API-ready in 18.9\n\nMost organizations pulling container images into CI/CD pipelines rely on multiple registries: Docker Hub, Harbor, Quay, and internal registries, to name a few. Managing authentication, availability, and caching across all of them is operational overhead that slows pipelines down and introduces fragility.\n\nThe Container Virtual Registry lets you create a single GitLab endpoint that pulls from multiple upstream container sources with built-in caching.\n\nInstead of configuring credentials and availability for each registry individually in your pipeline configuration, you can:\n\n* Point your pipelines at one GitLab virtual registry endpoint  \n* Configure multiple upstream registries (Docker Hub, Harbor, Quay, and others using long-lived token authentication)  \n* Let GitLab resolve image pulls automatically, with pull-through caching to reduce bandwidth costs and improve reliability\n\nFor teams evaluating GitLab as a container registry replacement, this closes a critical capability gap. For teams already managing multi-registry container workflows, it centralizes image management into GitLab and cuts down on repeated pulls.\n\n**What the beta supports today**\n\n* Upstream registries using long-lived token authentication: Docker Hub, Harbor, Quay, and other compatible registries  \n* Pull-through caching so commonly used images are served from GitLab after the first pull  \n* API-first configuration, with UI management in progress++\n\nCloud provider registries requiring IAM authentication (such as Amazon Elastic Container Registry, Google Artifact Registry, and Azure Container Registry) are being considered for future iterations.\n\n**Test it today**\n\n* The Container Virtual Registry is API-ready in 18.9.  \n* SaaS (GitLab.com): Request access through your CSM or by commenting on the feedback issue below to have the feature flag enabled for your group.  \n* Self-managed: Enable the feature flag and configure the virtual registry using the API.\n\n**Documentation**\n\n* [Container Virtual Registry API](https://docs.gitlab.com/api/container_virtual_registries/)  \n* [Pull container images from the virtual registry](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/packages/virtual_registry/container/#pull-container-images-from-the-virtual-registry)\n\n\n Watch this walkthrough of the Container Virtual Registry Beta:\n   \n\n  \u003Ciframe src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/1167512082?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&badge=0&autopause=0&player_id=0&app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"20260223_Container Virtual Registry Beta_V1\">\u003C/iframe>\u003C\u003Cscript src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js\">\u003C/script>\n\n  \u003Cbr>\u003C/br>\n\n\n\n**Share your feedback:**\n\n* [Container virtual registry feedback issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/589630)\n\n## Help us build what matters\n\nEveryone in the GitLab community is a contributor. We built these betas based on community requests.\n\n* **CI/CD Job Performance Metrics** came from teams who had no easy way to see when build times started trending in the wrong direction, or which jobs were hurting pipeline reliability.  \n* **Container Virtual Registry** came from enterprise customers managing multiple registries and looking to reduce tool sprawl and bandwidth costs while evaluating GitLab as a central registry.\n\nYour feedback shapes what we create next. Try one or both of these betas, and share your experience in the linked feedback issues.\n\nThis is the first in a series of Core DevOps betas we plan to highlight. More are coming throughout the year, and we hope you’ll help us make them as useful as possible.\n","2026-02-25",[26,9,23],{"featured":12,"template":13,"slug":714},"new-gitlab-metrics-and-registry-features-help-reduce-ci-cd-bottlenecks",{"content":716,"config":723},{"title":717,"description":718,"heroImage":719,"date":711,"category":9,"tags":720},"GitLab Patch Release: 18.9.1, 18.8.5, 18.7.5","Learn more about this patch release for GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition.","https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1749661926/Blog/Hero%20Images/security-patch-blog-image-r2-0506-700x400-fy25_2x.jpg",[721,722],"patch releases","security releases",{"featured":31,"template":13,"externalUrl":724},"https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2026/02/25/patch-release-gitlab-18-9-1-released/",{"content":726,"config":732},{"title":727,"description":728,"heroImage":709,"date":729,"tags":730,"category":9},"GitLab 18.9 released","Read about GitLab Duo Agent Platform self-hosted models now available for cloud licenses, vulnerability resolution with GitLab Duo Agent Platform, and more.","2026-02-19",[9,731],"releases",{"featured":31,"template":13,"externalUrl":733},"https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2026/02/19/gitlab-18-9-released/",{"promotions":735},[736,750,761],{"id":737,"categories":738,"header":740,"text":741,"button":742,"image":747},"ai-modernization",[739],"ai-ml","Is AI achieving its promise at scale?","Quiz will take 5 minutes or less",{"text":743,"config":744},"Get your AI maturity score",{"href":745,"dataGaName":746,"dataGaLocation":243},"/assessments/ai-modernization-assessment/","modernization assessment",{"config":748},{"src":749},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138786/qix0m7kwnd8x2fh1zq49.png",{"id":751,"categories":752,"header":753,"text":741,"button":754,"image":758},"devops-modernization",[9,37],"Are you just managing tools or shipping innovation?",{"text":755,"config":756},"Get your DevOps maturity score",{"href":757,"dataGaName":746,"dataGaLocation":243},"/assessments/devops-modernization-assessment/",{"config":759},{"src":760},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138785/eg818fmakweyuznttgid.png",{"id":762,"categories":763,"header":764,"text":741,"button":765,"image":769},"security-modernization",[25],"Are you trading speed for security?",{"text":766,"config":767},"Get your security maturity score",{"href":768,"dataGaName":746,"dataGaLocation":243},"/assessments/security-modernization-assessment/",{"config":770},{"src":771},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138786/p4pbqd9nnjejg5ds6mdk.png",{"header":773,"blurb":774,"button":775,"secondaryButton":780},"Start building faster today","See what your team can do with the intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps.\n",{"text":776,"config":777},"Get your free trial",{"href":778,"dataGaName":51,"dataGaLocation":779},"https://gitlab.com/-/trial_registrations/new?glm_content=default-saas-trial&glm_source=about.gitlab.com/","feature",{"text":495,"config":781},{"href":55,"dataGaName":56,"dataGaLocation":779},1772652061646]
