JFrog acquired Shippable, a continuous integration and DevOps automation platform company. Shippable's portfolio of cloud-native and Kubernetes-ready CI/CD solutions will be incorporated into the JFrog platform, creating a complete, integrated DevOps pipeline solution.

With expertise in CI/CD pipeline automation and a drive to make DevOps an "assembly line" for software development, Shippable technology provides a leap forward for JFrog's DevOps platform, Enterprise+. Coupled with JFrog's industry-leading artifact repository management binary management, distribution, and security vulnerability scanning solutions, Shippable technology will allow JFrog customers to automate their development processes from the moment code is committed through to production.

Shlomi Ben Haim, Co-founder and CEO of JFrog, said: "The modern DevOps landscape requires ever-faster delivery with more and more automation. Shippable's outstanding hybrid and cloud native technologies will incorporate yet another best-of-breed solution into the JFrog platform. Coupled with our commitments to universality and freedom of choice, developers can expect a superior out-of-the-box DevOps platform with the greatest flexibility to meet their DevOps needs."

Following a Series D funding round of $165 million announced in October of 2018, JFrog's acquisition of Shippable illustrates a promise to rapidly expand the JFrog technology portfolio across the DevOps pipeline. Coupled with the recent announcement of JFrog's incorporation of VulnDBsecurity intelligence data from Risk Based Security, JFrog is now offering the most automated, complete, open and secure DevOps solution in the market.

Avi Cavale, Co-founder and CEO of Shippable, said: "Shippable users and customers have long enjoyed our next-generation technology, but now will have access to leading security, binary management and other high-powered enterprise tools in the end-to-end JFrog Platform. This is truly exciting, as the combined forces of JFrog and Shippable can make full DevOps automation from code to production a reality."

Shippable employees will join JFrog global teams, with the first technology integrations being released in the JFrog Enterprise+ platform in the summer of 2019, with full technical integration completing in Q3 of 2019.
