What is an intelligent workflow platform, and why does it matter?

Oct 23, 2025 By Thomas Kinsella In Tines
Workflows aren’t new, or glamorous. But every major leap in technology has been about making work flow better. The assembly line automated production. The personal computer and the internet reshaped knowledge work. The cloud, mobile, and collaboration tools broke down barriers of place and time. We explored this evolution in a recent piece, “A History of Workflows.” Today, we’re examining the present. With automation and AI, we’re at the next leap.

A Framework for Cloud Resilience: Practical Steps to Harden Your Software Supply Chain

Oct 23, 2025 By Sean Pratt In JFrog
This user quote, captured on Reddit, underscores the real-world consequence of cloud outages: when it happens, the world stops. As your organization scales, you often make strategic decisions to centralize your workloads, whether it’s meeting strict regulatory requirements that demand data locality, or minimizing latency for compute-heavy applications. The true challenge isn’t deciding which cloud vendor to go with; it’s mitigating the risk of a single point of failure.
