GitLab , the popular developer and security platform , and AWS , the pop cloud calculation and AI service , today announced that they have teamed up to combine GitLab’sDuo AI assistantwithAmazon ’s Q autonomous agents .
The goal here , the two companies say , is to accelerate software innovation and developer productivity , and unlike so many partnerships in this business , this is actually a rather recondite coaction between these two companies . This admit joint technology workplace to desegregate the two platforms and a dedicated sales squad .
In practice session , this means that GitLab users will now be able to utilize Duo ’s schmooze feature to interact with Amazon Q Developer , which is now directly mix into the GitLab chat UI . This intend developer can now habituate yoke to access many of the agents available in Amazon Q Developer to help with code review , generate unit tests , and modernize their Java apps — or even plan and grow total feature of speech in a multistep operation .
Leveraging Q , the two companies argue , will allow developers to appease in the menstruum ( without having to guide the unwieldy AWS console ) , all while still getting the help of Q to sound off off multistep tasks right from within GitLab .
“ To us , this is bringing together the good of both worlds : our deep knowledge of the [ software development life Hz ] , with our unified information store , which becomes really potent as part of AI — and the breadth of cloud technologies plus AI agents and services that AWS brings , ” Ashley Kramer , GitLab ’s CMSO and interim CRO , told me . “ Being able-bodied to bring those together , our ultimate finish is to adjoin customers and succeeding prospects where they are , and that ’s often prepare their code in GitLab and using the AWS Developer Console and services . ”
Kramer stressed that GitLab continues to act with a multifariousness of other partners as well . This include Google , which worked with GitLab to integrate it into its developer console , and model providers like Anthropic . But she also noted that she was especially delirious about this AWS partnership , in tumid part because the two companies have so many joint customer .
“ We conceive this will be the first step in a long , more desegregate partnership , ” Kramer said . “ First step is integrating even more beyond the manipulation cases [ we ] described , as far as one unseamed user interface , whether that ’s GitLab ’s interface , IDE , when it come to GenAI and agentic AI , and then we ’re looking into further service with AWS that we can integrate even more seamlessly as next dance step in the partnership . ”
