Scaling Continuous Delivery, GitOps & AI-Powered Deployments with Octopus Deploy

At KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2026 in Amsterdam, The New Stack’s Adrian Bridgewater speaks with Octopus Deploy CRO Harsh Sabiki about modern software delivery at scale. Octopus Deploy is positioned as a platform-agnostic continuous delivery solution, enabling organizations to push applications across any environment—from data centers and Kubernetes clusters to edge locations like hospitals, retail systems, and even vessels at sea. Sabiki highlights the platform’s ability to standardize and reuse deployment processes, supporting thousands of deployments through modular templates and strong governance controls. The conversation also explores Octopus Deploy’s acquisition of Codefresh and its investment in Argo and GitOps to unify push- and pull-based deployment models. New capabilities include AI-powered agents that diagnose and help resolve deployment failures, with a human-in-the-loop approach to maintain control. Additional innovations like Platform Hub introduce process and policy templates to help platform engineering teams scale DevOps practices. Looking ahead, Sabiki envisions AI-driven deployment automation becoming increasingly autonomous, helping teams manage growing software complexity and accelerate delivery with confidence.
