Your Guide to Code Quality in Cloud Native Apps

TL;DR overview

• Quality code in cloud-native applications requires extending quality and security standards beyond application code to include infrastructure as code, container configurations, and Kubernetes manifests.
• Misconfigurations in IaC templates and Dockerfiles are a leading source of cloud security incidents, making automated analysis of these files as important as analyzing application logic.
• SonarQube analyzes Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, and Docker configurations alongside application code, providing unified quality gates across the entire cloud-native stack.
• Adopting code quality for cloud-native development ensures that infrastructure code meets the same quality standards as application code, reducing drift between development and production environments.

Whether you're considering or you've already started your journey with cloud native, make sure you're building your apps with Code Quality. With cloud native, there are a lot of new technologies and concepts to learn and it can be easy to miss a permission setting or leave a storage bucket unencrypted. There are a lot of security gaps that can happen with cloud native and gaps mean risk to your users, your organization and your reputation. 

Sonar has the tools and process to make sure coding issues don't make it into the wild where they can potentially harm your users. With Sonar, developers can directly affect the quality and security of the cloud native code they write.
