But talking with leadership – especially C-suite executives – isn’t always easy.\n\nSoftware development teams want to use DevSecOps because it will reduce hands-on work, make the development process more efficient, [foster collaboration](/blog/5-ways-collaboration-boosts-productivity-and-your-career/), [improve security](/the-source/security/how-to-strengthen-security-by-applying-devsecops-principles/), and speed development and deployment. Getting executives to understand how that all translates into [business benefits](/blog/five-essential-business-benefits-a-devops-platform-gives-smbs/) is the key here. That’s what will spur them to OK a DevSecOps adoption.\n\n> **Be sure to download our latest guide *[How to drive business success with DevSecOps](https://page.gitlab.com/resources-ebook-devsecops-success.html?utm_campaign=devsecopsplat&utm_content=ebookdevsecopssuccess)* for more advice.**\n\nTo help executives understand the technical and business benefits of [DevSecOps](/blog/its-time-to-put-the-sec-in-devsecops/) there are pitfalls you’ll need to avoid, as well as things you should make sure you do and discuss. Let’s dive into 7 things to consider right from the start.\n\n## 1. Know your audience\nEveryone is different. Some executives want every little detail. Others want a quick overview. And if, for instance, you’re talking with a CEO, focus on reducing costs and how more efficient and faster production can boost revenue and improve time to market. For CIOs, focus on productivity and efficiency. Tell them how automation and artificial intelligence (AI) features will save teams time and hands-on work.\n\n## 2. Find a champion\nIf you’re going to be walking into a boardroom packed with C-suite executives or having a small meeting with a CEO, it helps to have backup. Find an executive who knows the language of business and key business drivers and pitch the idea of using DevSecOps to get her backing. Then she can help you make the pitch to other executives.\n\n## 3. Make sure you have a plan\nBefore talking to an executive, you first need to draft a plan. Create a basic outline that gives you guidance about the key points to touch on, but also leaves room to take questions and feedback. Make sure you listen as much as you talk. Meetings are learning opportunities.\n\n## 4. Don’t geek out on the tech\nRemember that you are talking to business people. It’s easy for a technical person to fall back on using technical lingo and talking about the excitement of using the shiniest tools. But that’s not going to get someone far with most executives. Even a CTO, who is a technical person, is focused on the business – and how any technology is going to support that business or weigh it down. Don't use technical jargon or acronyms. Convey engineering objectives into a language of profit and loss. Tell execs why migrating to a DevSecOps platform will make the software development team, and the company as a whole, more successful.\n\n## 5. Do your homework\nIf you work for a public company, listen to the quarterly reports to learn about immediate business objectives and long-term strategic goals. Have a coffee chat with or shadow someone who works in financial planning, analysis, and/or accounting. Learn from your colleagues how the company makes money and what its business needs are. Understand challenges, like security issues, [compliance issues](/blog/top-5-compliance-features-to-leverage-in-gitlab/), or competitors coming out with new features faster. Then address those challenges. Make sure your presentation focuses on the company’s specific needs and any potential future challenges.\n\n“I would recommend always starting by figuring out the business needs first,” says [Fatima Sarah Khalid](https://gitlab.com/sugaroverflow), developer evangelist at GitLab. “How does this bring value to the organization’s customers and how does this impact the company? Will it save money, unlock a new customer segment, open up new channels, or boost production and efficiency? These are the kind of strategic levers that are most helpful for leadership to hear.”\n\n## 6. Focus on benefits to the executives\nOf course, executives will want to know how DevSecOps will benefit the business that they’re running, but they’ll also want to know how it can benefit them and the specific job they’re doing. Let executives know that a DevSecOps platform will give them visibility into the entire software development lifecycle so they can see where projects slow down or progress, giving them more insight and control. And make it clear that an end-to-end platform fosters a culture where everyone, from customer service to marketing and the C-suite, can collaborate.\n\n## 7. Don’t forget the money\nAs you plan out what to talk about with executives and what business challenges to focus on, remember that money always has to be part of the conversation. Since you likely will be reducing a complex and costly toolchain with the adoption of a DevSecOps platform, estimate the savings in both cost and time that will come from cutting that toolchain. Point out the savings, in terms of money and brand image, by reducing security vulnerabilities. Management also is going to want you to estimate how much it will cost to migrate to a platform, along with the human hours needed, and an adoption timeline.\n\n“Tech people can never forget that executives are very focused on ROI,” says [Ayoub Fandi](https://gitlab.com/ayofan), senior field security engineer at GitLab. “It’s always a central issue. They need to understand if any decision will bring them closer to their business goals. Adopting a DevSecOps platform can be a massive cost reduction. Each year companies spend more money on IT so if they can learn a way to spend less, it’ll be very welcome information.”\n\nRemember that leadership likely is looking for reasons to say yes. You just need to provide them with those reasons – and make sure they’re solid business reasons. Make it clear what an adoption will look like in practice. Show them [case studies](/customers/) of other companies that have made the move.\n\nAnd the impact of enabling executives to understand the benefits of DevSecOps go beyond a single adoption. Learning how to understand an organization’s business needs and strategy, and learning the language of business are [great skills for anyone in tech](/blog/best-advice-for-your-devops-career-keep-on-learning/) to have. Continuing to educate yourself and pursuing knowledge on the business side are top ways to increase your standing in your company, your hireability, and [your paycheck](/blog/four-tips-to-increase-your-devops-salary/).\n\nGet even more advice in our our latest guide *[How to drive business success with

According to our latest [Global DevSecOps Report](https://about.gitlab.com/developer-survey/), AI-generated code now accounts for 34% of all development work. Yet 70% of DevSecOps professionals report that AI is making compliance management more difficult, and 76% say agentic AI will create unprecedented security challenges.\n\nThis is the AI paradox: AI accelerates coding, but software delivery slows down as teams struggle to test, secure, and deploy all that code.\n\n## Productivity gains meet workflow bottlenecks\nThe problem isn't AI itself. It's how software gets built today. The traditional DevSecOps lifecycle contains hundreds of small tasks that developers must navigate manually: updating tickets, running tests, requesting reviews, waiting for approvals, fixing merge conflicts, addressing security findings. These tasks drain an average of seven hours per week from every team member, according to our research.\n\nDevelopment teams are producing code faster than ever, but that code still crawls through fragmented toolchains, manual handoffs, and disconnected processes. In fact, 60% of DevSecOps teams use more than five tools for software development overall, and 49% use more than five AI tools. This fragmentation creates collaboration barriers, with 94% of DevSecOps professionals experiencing factors that limit collaboration in the software development lifecycle.\n\nThe answer isn't more tools. It's intelligent orchestration that brings software teams and their AI agents together across projects and release cycles, with enterprise-grade security, governance, and compliance built in.\n\n## Seeking deeper human-AI partnerships\nDevSecOps professionals don't want AI to take over — they want reliable partnerships. The vast majority (82%) say using agentic AI would increase their job satisfaction, and 43% envision an ideal future with a 50/50 split between human and AI contributions. They're ready to trust AI with 37% of their daily tasks without human review, particularly for documentation, test writing, and code reviews.\n\nWhat we heard resoundingly from DevSecOps professionals is that AI won't replace them; rather, it will fundamentally reshape their roles. 83% of DevSecOps professionals believe AI will significantly change their work within five years, and notably, 76% think this will create more engineering jobs, not fewer. As coding becomes easier with AI, engineers who can architect systems, ensure quality, and apply business context will be in high demand.\n\nCritically, 88% agree there are essential human qualities that AI will never fully replace, including creativity, innovation, collaboration, and strategic vision.\n\nSo how can organizations bridge the gap between AI’s promise and the reality of fragmented workflows?\n\n## Join us at GitLab Transcend: Explore how to drive real value with agentic AI\nOn February 10, 2026, GitLab will be hosting Transcend, where we'll reveal how intelligent orchestration transforms AI-powered software development. You'll get a first look at GitLab's upcoming product roadmap and learn how teams are solving real-world challenges by modernizing development workflows with AI.\n\nOrganizations winning in this new era balance AI adoption with security, compliance, and platform consolidation. AI offers genuine productivity gains when implemented thoughtfully — not by replacing human developers, but by freeing DevSecOps professionals to focus on strategic thinking and creative innovation.\n\n[Register for Transcend today](https://about.gitlab.com/events/transcend/virtual/) to secure your spot and discover how intelligent orchestration can help your software teams stay in flow.",[712,713,714],"AI/ML","DevOps platform","security",{"featured":28,"template":13,"slug":716},"ai-is-reshaping-devsecops-attend-gitlab-transcend-to-see-whats-next",{"content":718,"config":729},{"title":719,"description":720,"authors":721,"heroImage":723,"date":724,"body":725,"category":9,"tags":726},"Atlassian ending Data Center as GitLab maintains deployment choice","As Atlassian transitions Data Center customers to cloud-only, GitLab presents a menu of deployment choices that map to business needs.",[722],"Emilio Salvador","https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1750098354/Blog/Hero%20Images/Blog/Hero%20Images/blog-image-template-1800x945%20%281%29_5XrohmuWBNuqL89BxVUzWm_1750098354056.png","2025-10-07","Change is never easy, especially when it's not your choice. Atlassian's announcement that [all Data Center products will reach end-of-life by March 28, 2029](https://www.atlassian.com/blog/announcements/atlassian-ascend), means thousands of organizations must now reconsider their DevSecOps deployment and infrastructure. But you don't have to settle for deployment options that don't fit your needs. GitLab maintains your freedom to choose — whether you need self-managed for compliance, cloud for convenience, or hybrid for flexibility — all within a single AI-powered DevSecOps platform that respects your requirements.\n\nWhile other vendors force migrations to cloud-only architectures, GitLab remains committed to supporting the deployment choices that match your business needs. Whether you're managing sensitive government data, operating in air-gapped environments, or simply prefer the control of self-managed deployments, we understand that one size doesn't fit all.\n\n## The cloud isn't the answer for everyone\n\nFor the many companies that invested millions of dollars in Data Center deployments, including those that migrated to Data Center [after its Server products were discontinued](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/atlassian-server-ending-move-to-a-single-devsecops-platform/), this announcement represents more than a product sunset. It signals a fundamental shift away from customer-centric architecture choices, forcing enterprises into difficult positions: accept a deployment model that doesn't fit their needs, or find a vendor that respects their requirements.\n\nMany of the organizations requiring self-managed deployments represent some of the world's most important organizations: healthcare systems protecting patient data, financial institutions managing trillions in assets, government agencies safeguarding national security, and defense contractors operating in air-gapped environments.\n\nThese organizations don't choose self-managed deployments for convenience; they choose them for compliance, security, and sovereignty requirements that cloud-only architectures simply cannot meet. Organizations operating in closed environments with restricted or no internet access aren't exceptions — they represent a significant portion of enterprise customers across various industries.\n\n![GitLab vs. Atlassian comparison table](https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1759928476/ynl7wwmkh5xyqhszv46m.jpg)\n\n## The real cost of forced cloud migration goes beyond dollars\n\nWhile cloud-only vendors frame mandatory migrations as \"upgrades,\" organizations face substantial challenges beyond simple financial costs:\n\n* **Lost integration capabilities:** Years of custom integrations with legacy systems, carefully crafted workflows, and enterprise-specific automations become obsolete. Organizations with deep integrations to legacy systems often find cloud migration technically infeasible.\n\n* **Regulatory constraints:** For organizations in regulated industries, cloud migration isn't just complex — it's often not permitted. Data residency requirements, air-gapped environments, and strict regulatory frameworks don't bend to vendor preferences. The absence of single-tenant solutions in many cloud-only approaches creates insurmountable compliance barriers.\n\n* **Productivity impacts:** Cloud-only architectures often require juggling multiple products: separate tools for planning, code management, CI/CD, and documentation. Each tool means another context switch, another integration to maintain, another potential point of failure. GitLab research shows [30% of developers spend at least 50% of their job maintaining and/or integrating their DevSecOps toolchain](https://about.gitlab.com/developer-survey/). Fragmented architectures exacerbate this challenge rather than solving it.\n\n## GitLab offers choice, commitment, and consolidation\n\nEnterprise customers deserve a trustworthy technology partner. That's why we've committed to supporting a range of deployment options — whether you need on-premises for compliance, hybrid for flexibility, or cloud for convenience, the choice remains yours. That commitment continues with [GitLab Duo](https://about.gitlab.com/gitlab-duo/), our AI solution that supports developers at every stage of their workflow.\n\nBut we offer more than just deployment flexibility. While other vendors might force you to cobble together their products into a fragmented toolchain, GitLab provides everything in a **comprehensive AI-native DevSecOps platform**. Source code management, CI/CD, security scanning, Agile planning, and documentation are all managed within a single application and a single vendor relationship.\n\nThis isn't theoretical. When Airbus and [Iron Mountain](https://about.gitlab.com/customers/iron-mountain/) evaluated their existing fragmented toolchains, they consistently identified challenges: poor user experience, missing functionalities like built-in security scanning and review apps, and management complexity from plugin troubleshooting. **These aren't minor challenges; they're major blockers for modern software delivery.**\n\n## Your migration path: Simpler than you think\n\nWe've helped thousands of organizations migrate from other vendors, and we've built the tools and expertise to make your transition smooth:\n\n* **Automated migration tools:** Our [Bitbucket Server importer](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/import/bitbucket_server/) brings over repositories, pull requests, comments, and even Large File Storage (LFS) objects. For Jira, our [built-in importer](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/import/jira/) handles issues, descriptions, and labels, with professional services available for complex migrations.\n\n* **Proven at scale:** A 500 GiB repository with 13,000 pull requests, 10,000 branches, and 7,000 tags is likely to [take just 8 hours to migrate](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/import/bitbucket_server/) from Bitbucket to GitLab using parallel processing.\n\n* **Immediate ROI:** A [Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ study commissioned by GitLab](https://about.gitlab.com/resources/study-forrester-tei-gitlab-ultimate/) found that investing in GitLab Ultimate confirms these benefits translate to real bottom-line impact, with a three-year 483% ROI, 5x time saved in security related activities, and 25% savings in software toolchain costs.\n\n## Start your journey to a unified DevSecOps platform\n\nForward-thinking organizations aren't waiting for vendor-mandated deadlines. They're evaluating alternatives now, while they have time to migrate thoughtfully to platforms that protect their investments and deliver on promises.\n\nOrganizations invest in self-managed deployments because they need control, compliance, and customization. When vendors deprecate these capabilities, they remove not just features but the fundamental ability to choose environments matching business requirements.\n\nModern DevSecOps platforms should offer complete functionality that respects deployment needs, consolidates toolchains, and accelerates software delivery, without forcing compromises on security or data sovereignty.\n\n[Talk to our sales team](https://about.gitlab.com/sales/) today about your migration options, or explore our [comprehensive migration resources](https://about.gitlab.com/move-to-gitlab-from-atlassian/) to see how thousands of organizations have already made the switch.\n\nYou also can [try GitLab Ultimate with GitLab Duo Enterprise](https://about.gitlab.com/free-trial/devsecops/) for free for 30 days to see what a unified DevSecOps platform can do for your organization.",[560,23,727,728],"product","features",{"featured":28,"template":13,"slug":730},"atlassian-ending-data-center-as-gitlab-maintains-deployment-choice",{"content":732,"config":742},{"title":733,"description":734,"authors":735,"heroImage":738,"date":739,"category":9,"tags":740,"body":741},"Why financial services choose single-tenant SaaS","Discover how GitLab Dedicated can help financial services organizations achieve compliant DevSecOps without compromising performance.",[736,737],"George Kichukov","Allie Holland","https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1749662023/Blog/Hero%20Images/display-dedicated-for-government-article-image-0679-1800x945-fy26.png","2025-08-14",[614,713],"Walk into any major financial institution and you'll see the contradiction immediately. Past the armed guards, through the biometric scanners, beyond the reinforced walls and multiple security checkpoints, you'll find developers building the algorithms that power global finance — on shared infrastructure alongside millions of strangers.\n\nThe software powering today's financial institutions is anything but ordinary. It includes credit risk models that protect billions in assets, payment processing algorithms handling millions of transactions, customer intelligence platforms that drive business strategy, and regulatory systems ensuring operational compliance  — all powered by source code that serves as both operational core and strategic asset.\n\n## When shared infrastructure becomes systemic risk\n\nThe rise of software-as-a-service platforms has created an uncomfortable reality for financial institutions. Every shared tenant becomes an unmanaged third-party risk, turning platform-wide incidents into industry-wide disruptions. This is the exact kind of concentration risk drawing increasing attention from regulators.\n\nJPMorgan Chase's Chief Information Security Officer Patrick Opet recently issued a stark warning to the industry in an [open letter](https://www.jpmorgan.com/technology/technology-blog/open-letter-to-our-suppliers) to third-party suppliers. He highlighted how SaaS adoption \"is creating a substantial vulnerability that is weakening the global economic system\" by embedding \"concentration risk into global critical infrastructure.\" The letter emphasizes that \"an attack on one major SaaS or PaaS provider can immediately ripple through its customers,” creating exactly the systemic risk that multi-tenant cloud platforms for source code management, CI builds, CD deployments, and security scanning introduce.\n\nConsider the regulatory complexity this creates. In shared environments, your compliance posture becomes hostage to potential incidents impacting other tenants as well as the concentration risks of large attack surface providers. A misconfiguration affecting any organization on the platform can trigger wider impact across the entire ecosystem. \n\nData sovereignty challenges compound this risk. Shared platforms distribute workloads across multiple regions and jurisdictions, often without granular control over where your source code executes. For institutions operating under strict regulatory requirements, this geographic distribution can create compliance gaps that are difficult to remediate.\n\nThen there's the amplification effect. Every shared tenant effectively becomes an indirect third-party risk to your operations. Their vulnerabilities increase your attack surface. Their incidents can impact your availability. Their compromises can affect your environment.\n\n## Purpose-built for what matters most\n\nGitLab recognizes that your source code deserves the same security posture as your most sensitive customer data. Rather than forcing you to choose between cloud-scale efficiency and enterprise-grade security, GitLab delivers both through [GitLab Dedicated](https://about.gitlab.com/dedicated/), purpose-built infrastructure that maintains complete isolation.\n\nYour development workflows, source code [repositories](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/repository/), and [CI/CD pipelines](https://docs.gitlab.com/ci/pipelines/) run in an environment exclusively dedicated to your organization. The [hosted runners](https://docs.gitlab.com/administration/dedicated/hosted_runners/) for GitLab Dedicated exemplify this approach. These runners connect securely to your data center through outbound private links, allowing access to your private services without exposing any traffic to the public internet. The [auto-scaling architecture](https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/runner_autoscale/) provides the performance you need, without compromising security or control. \n \n## Rethinking control\n\nFor financial institutions, minimizing shared risk is only part of the equation — true resilience requires precise control over how systems operate, scale, and comply with regulatory frameworks. GitLab Dedicated enables comprehensive data sovereignty through multiple layers of customer control. You maintain complete authority over [encryption keys](https://docs.gitlab.com/administration/dedicated/encryption/#encrypted-data-at-rest) through [bring-your-own-key (BYOK)](https://docs.gitlab.com/administration/dedicated/encryption/#bring-your-own-key-byok) capabilities, ensuring that sensitive source code and configuration data remains accessible only to your organization. Even GitLab cannot access your encrypted data without your keys.\n\n[Data residency](https://docs.gitlab.com/subscriptions/gitlab_dedicated/data_residency_and_high_availability/) becomes a choice rather than a constraint. You select your preferred AWS region to meet regulatory requirements and organizational data governance policies, maintaining full control over where your sensitive source code and intellectual property are stored.\n\nThis control extends to [compliance frameworks](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/compliance/compliance_frameworks/) that financial institutions require. The platform provides [comprehensive audit trails](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/compliance/audit_events/) and logging capabilities that support compliance efforts for financial services regulations like [Sarbanes-Oxley](https://about.gitlab.com/compliance/sox-compliance/) and [GLBA Safeguards Rule](https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/privacy-security/gramm-leach-bliley-act).\n\nWhen compliance questions arise, you work directly with GitLab's dedicated support team — experienced professionals who understand the regulatory challenges that organizations in highly regulated industries face.\n\n## Operational excellence without operational overhead\n\nGitLab Dedicated maintains [high availability](https://docs.gitlab.com/subscriptions/gitlab_dedicated/data_residency_and_high_availability/) with [built-in disaster recovery](https://docs.gitlab.com/subscriptions/gitlab_dedicated/), ensuring your development operations remain resilient even during infrastructure failures. The dedicated resources scale with your organization's needs without the performance variability that shared environments introduce.\n\nThe [zero-maintenance approach](https://docs.gitlab.com/subscriptions/gitlab_dedicated/maintenance/) to CI/CD infrastructure eliminates a significant operational burden. Your teams focus on development while GitLab manages the underlying infrastructure, auto-scaling, and maintenance — including rapid security patching to protect your critical intellectual property from emerging threats. This operational efficiency doesn't come at the cost of security: the dedicated infrastructure provides enterprise-grade controls while delivering cloud-scale performance.\n\n## The competitive reality\n\nWhile some institutions debate infrastructure strategies, industry leaders are taking decisive action. [NatWest Group](https://about.gitlab.com/press/releases/2022-11-30-gitlab-dedicated-launches-to-meet-complex-compliance-requirements/), one of the UK's largest financial institutions, chose GitLab Dedicated to transform their engineering capabilities:\n\n> *\"NatWest Group is adopting GitLab Dedicated to enable our engineers to use a common cloud engineering platform; delivering new customer outcomes rapidly, frequently and securely with high quality, automated testing, on demand infrastructure and straight-through deployment.
