Migrations, security patches, and dependency upgrades are a necessary toil, but not one that your developers have to suffer through. Learn about Spotify’s approach to managing its fleet of over 10,000 software components — and how we patched the Log4J vulnerability across most of our software in 6 hours.

Fleet Management has freed our developers to focus on impactful software development — rather than the toil of dependency upgrades and migrations. Through automation, our percentage of software that’s up-to-date jumped from 10% to 80%, and security vulnerabilities were cut in half. Spotify orchestrates hundreds of changes, across thousands of repositories, and releases them to production — all without developer intervention.
